All Things New

So my family and I moved to Roosevelt, Utah at the first of December. We had never been to Utah and at first I did not want to leave Missouri, but we knew that God wanted us in Utah.

I love St. Louis, everything from the Arch to the Blues to Old Downtown St. Charles. (I know, that’s St. Charles but you know what I mean.)  I had a Job, friends, family (an hour away), but I knew God did not want me there anymore. 

God was calling my family and I to Utah where I had no job to speak of, no family, I knew no one, and its cold… Oh so cold. But God said go and we went. 

We did not have the money to go, but again God provided the way.  We packed up and moved to Roosevelt, UT. 

So your asking, “What’s in Roosevelt Utah?” NOTHING THERE IS NOTHING HERE IN ROOSEVELT. Ok there are things here but again remember I came from St. Louis Missouri, The best place in the USA, at lest for me, and I came to a small small small town where the big city, Salt Lake is 2 hours away.  Plus no comic shop for 80+ miles, Oh Steve at New Castle, How I miss thee.

But we came to Utah with a truck of stuff, a rental house, my wife with a job, and me with the kids and time.  Now I had been talking to a church in Duchesne Utah which is about 30 minutes from Roosevelt and to be honest everyplace is 30 minutes from everyplace. But I had been talking to this small church who had lost their pastor about maybe becoming their new pastor. 

The first Sunday we were here we went and on the third week I started preaching. As time went on I was voted in as their new pastor.  (1-24-11)

So here is the point to this little tell.  If you trust in God, He will take care of you. If you lesion to Him, He will tell you what He wants you to do with your life.  God has done so many things for my family and I  and I know that He will work through me here in Utah.  God is Great and I can’t wait to see what happens next.
