We also received a prophetic word from Jaime's cousin Jud who lives in Maine. Jud said that our move to Reading was the right thing to do, but God has just delayed it for the moment. He used Ezra 4 as the illustration, where the Jews were rebuiding the temple. They were ordered to stop the rebuilding and had to wait for years to begin again. To rebuild the temple was the right thing to do, Jud said to us, but they had to wait for years until they could rebuild it.
Well this greatly encouraged our faith, for we often question God as to whether we are doing the right thing in attending church in Reading. I am glad to say that these thoughts are much fewer, and unless God would make it clearer, we believe that we have been called to Reading and the people of Christ Community Church, even it that means it is 10 years before we can move there.
We await your arrival and are so glad you're a part of our flock in the waiting:) ~ Steve & Marie
