Many of you remember our dear friend, EYG. Here is a prayer request she wrote on Facebook. As you read, keep in mind that she is an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person), which is kind of like having a sensory processing disorder (I’m that way, too). . .
“I’m sure there are people somewhere who have moved more times than we have… Packing and hauling and storing and reinstalling stuff is NEVER FUN!!! Neither is downsizing even further.
“We are spending our last night tonight at the Lawrenceburg Tiny House that we’ve lived in these last 5 years. God has done a lot of work in us here. We have many wonderful memories.
“Please pray for us as we go, for a safe and hopefully swift move. And a peaceful one (My body is stressing out, terribly)
“Please pray for God’s will, his peace and favor on us as we move to a new town (wonderful Franklin, TN) to reside with my widowed mother. We feel led to this and will be relieved when the upheaval is through.
“In my dreams, I’m going on a two week cruise after this… But in the absence of that fulfillment, PLEASE PRAY for my nerves and stress level, that they will know peace and calm as if they were on said cruise.
My daughter just left for her summer/life, adventure in LA. She’ll be living with hostile-to-Christians but loving-to-her relatives while taking an anatomy class at UCLA. She’s wonderful in a million ways (tears starting in my eyes) and plans to help out with Campus Crusade for Christ activities at UCLA and in a planned out reach to Santa Monica–though she hasn’t told the relatives that. 🙂
Life is ahead of her and she’s as excited/anxious as any twenty-something. She’d love to hear about an ER scribe job she’s hoping for in Santa Barbara which will cement her plans, but over the last two days is starting to wonder if there might be something else for her and she may not return to Santa Barbara.
I don’t know, but she’s got three great connections (one she hasn’t even met yet) in LA this summer who could send her off into a different, and equally God-driven, direction toward her goal.
And then there’s this handsome smart guy she won’t let me set her up with on a blind date . . . 🙂
Help this mom’s heart and pray she’d hear the direction God has for her and follow it–safely. 🙂
Yes, Michelle. There is always a little missing in our lives, no matter how content we are as a rule.
We often visit Franklin, TN, since our daughter lives near there. She usually drives through town on her way to work, in fact. It is a lovely, lovely place. Of course, Lawrenceburg is nice, too. It is a big change, I am sure to live with a MIL.

Chas- Yes, that’s her real name.

Michelle – Said a prayer for your daughter. It’s so hard to let them go (even when they’re still living with you 😉 ).
