Back to Tennessee

I am getting ready to pack my bags (and a 26 ft truck), preparing for the next chapter of my life. I am headed back to "God's country," a place that I really love. I was born in Tennessee 49 years ago, and left when I was 10. I found my way back there for college, and left when I graduated. They say you can take the country out of the girl, but you can't take the girl out of the country...or, something like that. I have to say, I have really missed Tennessee. I miss the mountains, the snow, the changing of the leaves in the fall, country fall fesivals, and finding neat places to hike. I love the outdoors. I have so many fond memories of living in Tennessee....but, that is for another post. The verse that God gave me on March 17, 09 is this: "For you will go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills will break forth into shouts of joy before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands." Isaiah 55: 12. God is so good! It's as if the LORD said, "Naomi, the mountains have missed you, too, and can't wait to see you return." I can just imagine the mountains and the hills clapping when I get there! And then I thought, "But the biggest applause will be for Jesus...for He will be leading the way....my Prince of Peace...Jesus...leads the way! He is my shepherd. He is my Savior! He is my friend! Feel free to join me on this journey. I am on my way to Tennessee...but, I am also on my way home...walk with me when you can...I hope to be of encouragement to you...
