OK, so maybe you've heard. We will be moving this October to TN! OK, so now you HAVE heard.
God has brought Jess and I many places in these last few years, to places we never thought we would be and made us people we never thought we'd be. He prepared us for things not yet seen in our future, and broke some of our unwillingness to follow Him. We have indeed been introduced to some of the struggles of fighting the culture of modern society, and I have not liked it one bit! I guess I assumed I was entitled to be comfortable and out of scoffers reach 7 out of 7 days in the week. WRONG : ) But like I said, God has made us people we never thought we could be. This alteration in our lives is no exception to the nay-Sayers and ridiculers, you know..."Do you know what your doing?", "How are you going to pay for this?" , "Why would you leave your PERFECT little life to risk it all?", and of course my favorite..."Are you going to be like those Amish people?" (spoken with fear and trembling in their pitch). I do not possess the energy to explain God's wonderment and doors He has opened to make this life change possible. There can be no negative implications when you follow the Lords lead. Besides you will end up where He wants you in the end no matter how you try to change it. With that out of my system, we want to say how excited we are to do this and how excited we are to be a part of this business adventure. It will be no easy feat to work up from the bottom again, but hey who expects a free handout for not working hard? Not us. We thank you all who are an encouragement to us and have shown us love and understanding. We also thank those of you who have questioned us, and made us think hard about those tough questions. But most of all we thank the Lord for his unending love and mercy in this life. Besides, who wouldn't want 4 seasons and a little snow! We cannot wait to get started and get to work! I will be running a blog for "the Back to the Land Store", and I look forward to that! It is such a wonderful company and stands for some great things. We look forward to posting more info, but I thought I would at least get this much out there!
Thanks and God Bless,

the Lime Kilns in Erin

Jeremiah 10:23 I know, O LORD, that a man's life is not his own; it is not for man to direct his steps.

What a great post, Kelsey. Well-written! We're SO thrilled to see the Lord's incredible work in your lives, and how He has worked everything out. We serve an awesome GOD!! That place up there seems SO perfect for y'all~ I can't wait to see what all He has in store for y'all. Of course, I DON'T know what on earth we're gonna do down here without y'all. Life will be SO different (and SO sad!) The Lord is sovereign though. Change is a part of His will! I know y'all will love it up there... and I sure hope it's HIS will that we can join y'all soon. :D I really appreciate the verse you wrote, Jeremiah 10:23, what a fitting verse.
LOVE Y'ALL! Please hurry over!! :D I hate i missed seeing y'all Monday morning. :(
Laney baney or Lange ;)
