Where?

Last month I sent my resume and a placement form to the CBA office of So Cal. At that time, the director told me that there were two churches looking for pastors--in La Mesa, where I grew up, and in Perris, near my folks and my sister and her husband. We have been praying fervently that God would move us near family. I decided to call both those churches today to see where they were in the search process. The La Mesa church told me they were no longer seeking a pastor, (I guess they already selected one), and the Perris church secretary told me that they are voting on a candidate this next Sunday. So I guess God has closed the doors on those ministries.
We, especially Karen, are still praying about a church in Tennesee that would be near Joylene and Jeff. And then there is the church in Turlock that would be near Karen's family in Lodi. I know why there are so many scripture passages about "waiting patiently"! We need to be reminded that God's timing is so different than ours.
