Morning and blessings of this day!

Looks as if we may be accelerating our move to Florida in May now and not July. Took another step last night telling guys in band (been working with about 6 months)that I will be leaving and discussed what we want to do for the next amount of months.It is just one more step in closure on getting ready to leave our jobs,head to Florida so my wife can be by her family and start a new life there.(we have prayed and know this is what "we" want to do....We are continually stepping out on faith .Next discussion with Landlord on accelerating our lease,then letting my job know Im leaving after 33 years of service.Watching my 401K fluctuate like a bobbing ship(truly blessed to have one)even if its now a 210K :)....By the application of our spiritual principles in my life ,taught and practiced thru our program and remaining God centered and relying on our decisons and Gods results we move forward,a day at a time.There is excitement and less and less anxiety.I know I am exactly where I am supposed to be and truly grateful and blessed.Twenty seven years ago when I "came to" for the last time, I had no idea how I was going to move forward or that 'LOST DREAMS WOULD TRULY AWAKEN AND NEW POSSIBILITIES WOULD CONTINUE TO ARISE.If you are new or just coming around,stick around for the miracle,do the work ,get involved and give back to the best of your ability.Our message is hope and our promise is freedom from active addiction.Join us today, we need you as we keep what we have by giving it away.....As always 'more will be revealed" C ya on the backside......peace.smile

I pray that God blesses you and your family in abundance. I like your "stepping out in faith", because that is what it's all about.

Great post MikeF,

May God be with you during and after your move ... 'gonee' hit the nail on the head, faith is where it all begins and where I always want to stay ... it IS what it's all about!


God Bless,
Pappy

Hi Mike, your post reminds me of the difference between making drastic life changes to run away from things and  and in your case, being open and connected to a faith that guides one to wonderful, but challenging new horizons.  Best wishes.
