Missing AZ

Today has been a really hard day for me as far as wanting to go back to Arizona. I found out today that two friends of mine are being called to the places they want to be. One friend is moving to Texas where she came from and has missed so much and is so happy to be moving back and another friend is moving from Arizona back to where they want to be in Colorado. I am so happy for those families, but my heart is really heavy today because I so wish that God's plan for our family would be to return to Arizona. I feel connected to Colorado with my journey group, church, my work, etc. But there is such an emptiness that makes me feel like we are all alone here! If given the opportunity, I would move back to Arizona in a heart beat! I know that being at a lower elevation would make Brad feel better, we have so many friends there, our home church is there, my kids friends of 12 years are there, my dad is there! There are so many reasons that just make sense for us to go back!
I wanted to surprise the boys and go back to AZ for spring break, but part of me is afraid that if we do that, that when I return to CO, I will miss being there even more than I currently do!
My prayer is to be in God's will, even if that if for us to stay here, but I then pray for contentment here!

  2. I so wish we could just places to live. I feel the EXACT way about CO...even the "when I visit" part. It's even been harder since Travis has been away. I will pray for you and for finding comfort no matter where God has us. Ultimately He is in control, right? Eventually I hope to see His plans and purposes unvailed! Sending you lots of hugs!
