It was great to read your post this morn...Hey Bro,<br /><br />It was great to read your post this morning as we are in the midst of a similar situation. We have been trying to sell our house for the past 6 months after discerning whether to move from NoPo (inter city north Portland) to closer to Sarah's family, ministry at the parish, and a school system that graduate more kids than not. All that said I have been struggling (especially after reading happy are you poor) about the move. Something about neat sidewalks, 2 & 3 car garages, and neatly cut green lawns seems so fake. We have good intentions for moving, but at the same time enjoy the neighbors we have grown to love, living in a diverse area, and telling the affluent white kids I work with that I live in NoPo and seeing there feared reaction. Now with a possible offer by Fri., I am even more nervous about actually making the move. I would hear more on how you & the Mrs. came to your decision, as I often have trouble balancing the radical with family.<br /><br />Peace,<br />JKiddJasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820263851335843987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411635756890083430.post-30074797425789954182009-10-21T17:02:51.489-07:002009-10-21T17:02:51.489-07:00this reminded me of a passage...I just cant rember...this reminded me of a passage...I just cant rember where I found this.<br /><br />Love can be so genuine and delightful when you let it reveal itself. In other words, stop trying to shape a relationship into what you think it should be. Be natural and honest with each other,because God doesn't give you the people you want. Instead, He gives you the people you need - to teach you, to hurt you, to love you and to make you exactly the way you're meant to be.<br /><br />everything happens fo a reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
