so I feel like a lame-o asking for prayers.

But I'm asking anyway

~We are moving in 19 days (about a mile away - which I have found is just as much work as moving to another state, and twice as annoying....)Prayers for sanity and that we will not have to move again for MANY MANY years. Many.

~For me, my faith is tatters and I don't know if it can be fixed.

~for my children (one to make good decisions, one because his autism makes these moves and changes so hard on him, and one because she keeps finding a good friend and then they keep moving away. Her inner joy - which is this child's special gift - is taking a hit, bigtime.)

I have a few others but any just general prayers sent our way would be appreciated.

I am praying with great empathy. I, too, hope not to move again for a very long time!

Oh Laura....I would come racing over with chocolate and teen boys to help move if I could....but I WILL be praying and offering up for you I’m glad you pop in, we miss you!! Stay longer when you can...and if you get a chance, could you get a copy of I Believe in Love? I feel compelled to tell you that....I am reading it, after feeling so dry for so long....and it is helping. Take it slowly....it is not a hard book to read, but every bit of it is nourishing....like a great meal...to be savored. You know we love you no matter where you are at, you are our Sister in Christ!!!

Never hesitate to come back to ask for prayers, Laura! Praying for your move and all your intentions. Missing you!

And don't underestimate God -- He can fix anything!

Praying and sending hugs! I agree with your assessment of those short-distance moves (we've done a few!).

May you find peace in your new home, and may your children make the transition smoothly.
