Like them that dreamed....
The Lord has blessed us abundantly!!! The blessings have been better than anything we could have ever dreamed!
I have been busy with my babies and packing up the house. All of you that have walked with us through a move know that, "The Wood family CAN PACK a house!" I have never been one to have a task and put it off. It drives me bonkers. When I know what we are doing and where we are going... I want to get it done! I think my personality has made the work of patience a tad challenging for me. However, the Father has always been more interested in my holiness than my happiness and continues to call me into situations where I have to wait on Him. I am learning.... slowly... . but I am learning- Praise God!! I really want to learn this lesson and let patience have her perfect work in my life!
With all that said, now is the time that the Lord has said..."Get moving!" So here we go! I have a few more of the utilities to call and get transferred. I will be sending out emails today with our new address and phone number- so keep an eye out for it and let me know if you don't get your update. As I was busy yesterday with moving details I saw a most wonderful picture in my mind. I shared it with my Momma and wanted to post it here for you too. If there are "giants" in your life, obstacles that seem impossible, continue to trust in Him! He will bring you back from your captivity! He will deliver you just as He has done for the Wood family- He is no respecter of persons! It is my husbands prayer, and mine, that we are a testimony of His faithfulness- may you be encouraged by what you see Him doing in our lives!
With much love dear friends,
Mrs. Joseph Wood
I have CONFIDENCE IN HIS FAITHFULNESS!!! All these blessings are better than anything I could have dreamed... I trust Him that He can do a miracle and sell our home in CA too... just look at all He has done! No matter what happens I WILL TRUST HIM! He has destroyed my enemies...the giants that came against me, they taunted me, laughed at me and took pride in their weapons; now they all lay dead! They are scattered on the battle field with no one to help them.. I hid in the cover of His shadow and saw Him defeat them... It was by His sword they were destroyed and not by any strength of my own! He alone is victorious!!!

When the Lord brought again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dreamed. Then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue with joy: then said they among the heathen, THE LORD HATH DONE GREAT THINGS FOR THEM! The Lord hath done great things for us, wherof we rejoice. O Lord bring again our captivity as the rivers of the South. They that sow in tears, shall reap in joy. They went weeping, and carried precious seed: but they shall return with joy, and bring their sheaves.

Oh, sister, I do hope that we will be able to visit you all this Christmas. We start in Oklahoma, but nearly always go to Kansas to see family as well. Will you have us?
