starting over

have you ever gone against the grain? did things that you knew were wrong but did it anyway? felt like a failure and a disappointment? i have done and felt all of this! but i am finding that through all of my disappointments and failures god is still there and has grace and mercy like no other could ever have. i will admit i have messed up and don't deserve this kind of love but god doesn't look at it that way and i am so glad! god has given me peace and i know that through him everything will be okay!
several weeks ago i decided that i was going to make some changes and church was one them. i have attended this church since i was about 14 but i feel as though it is time for something new. so, i have been visiting this one church and i really like it but i would like to visit a few more before i make any definite decisions. while this decision was hard and yet sad, i feel it was best for my family. i have renewed strength and i know that god will lead us to the right place. i haven't felt this great about church in quite some time!
please pray for my family as we embark on this journey. starting over is never easy but i must admit that i am very excited and anxious to see what god has in store!
