Moving

By Kristine John

My post will be short today.
Our family is moving from Silver City, NM to Queen Creek, AZ.
The last month has been a bit harried (although I'm coming to believe I'll always be at least a bit harried).

Mid-October I was called as our ward Relief Society President.
I spent the next two weeks praying, pondering and poring over names as I was guided to choose counselors to serve with me in the Relief Society Presidency.

At the beginning of November, my husband received an unsolicted e-mail asking for him if he was interested in a job.
He contacted the company and had an interview lined up within the week.
Two days after his interview, he was offered a job, and having fasted and prayed about it over the weekend, we knew it was the right move for our family.

So now I sit here, 3 weeks from a move, soon to be released from my *long* stint (3 months on Sunday) as RSP, contemplating where my nearest ANWA group will be so that I can start planning to attend a chapter meeting.

Am I slightly insane?
Or just happily guided by the Lord?

  1. Oh I'd say you are being happily guided by the Lord, Kristine. Ajob change and a move are big decisions.Congratulations to you and your husband on the job. They are difficult to come by in AZ! My hubby had to take one in SLC and I envy your ability to relocate so quickly. Best of everything to you!

  2. If there was a time to move it is now. Housing has taken a big hit here and prices are lower than they've been in years. Fortuitous timing? Yes and Yes. The Lord knows exactly what we need. Hope your move is smooth.

  3. I hope only the best. I was called as YW's pres and felt inspired to move. If you follow what you feel is right, you can never go wrong in the end.

    Best of luck.
