Moving Day: Navigating Faith-Based Life Transitions with Peace and Purpose

I technically relocated to the country almost two years ago, but the market wasn’t in great shape, and our home was in need of some minor attention. Since my husband’s work is on our old side of town, it helped to have a place for him to stay a few nights a week. However, the updates to the house were pretty much complete, and the commute has definitely taken its toll. Time to sell.

The Lord blessed us by allowing us to cross paths with buyers who were renting in our neighborhood. Though it’s been an unconventional process, we remained faithful, asking God to bless this transaction and our efforts to sell to them. Finally, we are scheduled to close.

How to Embrace Faith-Based Life Transitions with Confidence

With a closing date drawing near, we are making arrangements to start packing and moving, so tons of questions are crossing my mind. How will I pack the remaining items in my house with a 2-year-old who requires A LOT of attention? Will he unpack the box I just closed? Can we get away without a storage unit, or will we have to splurge on that too? If we do need a storage unit, will it need to be climate-controlled? Thankfully, I have an adaptable set of people working with me to help us find all the answers we need during this transition.

Some obvious things on the to-do list include packing, but I had to determine if there was any furniture that we could let go of. Determined there is, I start photographing and listing items that can go from our current living arrangements, and later, I’ll add the items from the house we are selling. It doesn’t matter if I’m yard selling or online selling, IT IS STRESSFUL & NOT my forte.

If you’re in the Luthersville, GA region and need a couch, faux leather chair, chest & nightstand, or baby crib, let me know by sending an email. Here are pictures, but you can also find them on letgo or 5miles.

Antiqued Black Chest & Nightstand – $150 OBO

Good Condition, yet the bottom drawer is in need of minor repair.

Faux Leather Chair with Ottoman – $200 OBO

Sturdy Couch – $100 OBO

I am surely not the only one who’s lived this, but if you know of someone who is looking for any of these items, please have them make me an offer. We are ready to let go!!

What essential oils do you prefer in a stressful situation? Frankincense is also on my list.

Stepping into a new season often feels stretching, but faith-based life transitions remind us that God goes before us. Even when change feels uncomfortable, He is steady, present, and leading us into something purposeful. “At the right time, I, the Lord, will make it happen.” (Isaiah 60:22 ESV). Moving—whether into a new home, a new calling, or a new chapter becomes easier when we trust the One who is directing our steps.
