And the Adventure Continues!

No one could ever say our life is boring ~ if they did they would be so wrong!

We were sad to hear that Carol & Kevin would be leaving Branson View Campground to go on a new adventure for them but we are so excited to announce:

We got offered the full-time manager's position and we accepted!!

God is so good to us and sometimes we don't understand why things happen but like His Word says  in Romans 26-28 Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good. 

We don't know why we got terminated the way we did from the Alamo Area SKP Co-Op (yes we know what we were told, we know also what has come out since we left the park ~ only God really knows the truth) but we do know that God is in control of our lives.  We trust in Him, we love Him and we seek His guidance in how we live our lives.  

And God has truly turned a very uncomfortable and unsettling situation into a wonderful thing for us.  And that is full time work, in a setting we enjoy and in an area we have never been before.  And it gets us closer to Georgia where we hope to meet up with some good friends and Ron's Uncle Mervin and his family.  

Thank you all for your encouragement and prayers as we moved forward in a blur, with one foot in front of the other and now rejoicing in the clear skies, lovely sunshine and lots of green trees here in Branson, MO.

We were managers of a park in south Texas for 2.5 years, and were terminated without notice "just like that". I know what they told us, but I think they had another agenda, too. I think that sort of thing happens a lot down there. It is a cut throat occupation at best.

This is wonderful news, Ali and Ron. Maybe now you can settle down and have boring lives like the rest of us? Nah, that would be no fun! ;)

Ohhh so happy for you!!!!

I know while going through it, it's hard to see what "the plan" is for you from God... but He knew you were needed somewhere else.

May this be the resting place you needed to recoup your budget a bit and feel fulfillment and success!
