oopsy, we moved to Idaho

It's true. God has several times given us the possibility to move to Northern Idaho so that we would have something of value to offer Him. We wanted to move there very much and it gave us a great gift to give Him. Then God taught us that we could be satisfied and content Anywhere, IF we looked to Him only for satisfaction. He filled us with contentment and joy living in Oklahoma which was not (so we thought) anywhere we'd want to live. When we moved there, we realized we loved it and saw ourselves growing old there. However, Leon was not getting a permanent position in Oklahoma despite his efforts. So he sent resumes to other states to see what would happen. Then Coldwater Creek in Idaho called him about a position he hadn't applied for. He was eventually hired after many interviews. After signing on with Cold water Creek, several different places contacted him with work in Oklahoma. It was like God was saying that He could have provided a job for Leon at any time and that He was leading us.
So we are in Missoula, Mt. We are about to drive now to Coeur d' Alene. This is the drive we have wanted to make for years. Our new house should close Feb. 23rd and until then we'll stay in a hotel. It's all been so easy so far. We've just been along for the ride.
