Heavenly Father, you see what a radical time this must be for us. Please, speak to me. Help me know what to do. It seems you may be asking us to move so that we can reduce our expenses, to be missionaries. I don't mind becoming uncomfortable. But you know I love South Florida weather and proximity to the beaches. You know the children have been happy in their school and we like being so close by. You know the warm weather is better for Lisa, especially if she can find a warm swimming pool. And you know we have to continue her therapy wherever we go.

On the other hand, you seem to have been setting me up to teach music, encouraging me through others to get my foot in the door with the public school system. I'm getting conflicting messages. And I fear that by the time I have an answer I will have overspent and done more stupid things, as I so often do. You see the bills coming better than I do. Lord, it seems we have to live without a car once I quite Lab Corp. and sell Sylvia. Maybe you will help us find a new used car that is fully paid for. My timing and yours seem to always be off, Lord. Let me be a better dancer. I'm sorry for stepping on your toes.

Lord, I thank you for these children and for the love we have in this home. Protect these boys. I've lost so much. Please, don't let them ever be harmed. I turn all my other dreams over to you and trust that you have better plans. But please keep us free from harm. Lisa also is asking for her health. And I have seen some encouraging signs. When I was led to say "Ektainon teen kaira sou!" she did stretch out her hand to the full. Your power jolted her, Lord. But then it withered back up. And we regrouped but we were at the end of our strength. This has been such a long journey. I ask you for more strength and hope. Bring us to stability in our finances and restore her health to the full. I am trusting in you, my Lord and my God. My prayers are before you, the living God, you whom I can't imagine, you Lord Jesus Christ, who hears me, who loves me more than I can know, you only God, you true friend, you loving heavenly Father.
