I'm Moving On

But to where is the question......

It was 1 year ago that I moved here to Nashville, TN to go to work for Vicki Yohe Ministries. Working for VYM has been a challenge at times, but has also been a rewarding job as well. I have grown to know Vicki, and have found her to be very ethical, and show a lot of integrity. I have enjoyed being a part of the orphanage in Uganda. The need is so tremendous there. 100 more houses would not be enough for the vast amount of orphans that Africa has. These are children that are currently without hope, and without the Gospel message.

But alas, my lease of my home runs out on Nov 1st, and I have come to the place where I feel I must re-evaluate my life yet again. Initially, I had planned on going into business for myself, but several things have kept me from doing so. Several other things have caused me to feel like it is time to move on.

I am not sure at this point what direction I am headed in. I have entertained one particular thing, but am just not sure tonight if it is the right choice. As a minister, I would like to find the place where I can fulfill my calling. But I am just at a lose as to what direction to go in. I know God has a "master plan" for my life, and have saw his hand though many difficult days as he has led me along the path of life. Sometimes I wish things were easier, and the paths plainer to see. I am sure I am not the only one that sometimes feels like they are stumbling around in the dark trying to find the light switch.

As you pray over the next few weeks, please call out StMatt and my family, and ask God to lead us forward in his perfect will.

Matthew, now is a great time to immerse yourself in God's Word. You know, the whole "lamp unto my feet and light unto my path" benefit?

Psalm 138:8 says "The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures for ever. Do not forsake the work of your hands."

Pray earnestly and God will lead you and guide you in the way that He wants you to go.

Praying St. Matt. Being in process is a difficult thing. Trust God to open a door or shut a window. He knows best.

Blessings & Prayers, Rhoni

St.Matt,

I will be praying for you while you make these life decisions. Be sure and let Pianoman and myself know if or when you are moving out of town so we can have one last lunch together!!

St. Matt,

It seems that God is stirring many of us in much the same way. I am praying the Lord's prayer on your behalf... specifically that His will that is already established in heaven for your life will be done in you, his earthly creation, His called and chosen!

I would appreciate your prayers in this area as well. I have been wrestling with making a change as well but it seems I can never get free from the entanglements of life long enough to throw myself completely into the Kingdom and my call.

Though we have never spoken, I certainly welcome your call at any time day or night (if I hear the phone

) 888-217-0101

In Jesus name!
