In reply to Edna. Thanks for your different perspective Edna. I understand that it's hard to suggest something without understanding the whole picture. Appreciate your prayers.

Hi Raoul,

Greetings!
Just a note:
Word of wisdom that suits the people’s need- your need always streamed out from heaven.
It is a never ending divine provision from the one who cared the world with an everlasting love.

For personal opinion: I would prefer to be silent as to my own perspective it’s because my conscience will not validate my propositions if I speak it out.

The one thing that I can legitly do for now is to pray for God’s directions that will lead to true joy and peace.

God cares…

Raul,
I will be praying for you. You have to trust that the Lord will open and shut those doors or even build a different door.

Blessings,
Peg

Raoul – What a great message and thoughts. My first reaction would be one of two windows – Philippines or DC with family. Business partner didn’t have same impact. In today’s digital world, you might split time and address each.

God bless you and yours and a 2023 that has great impact for you,

Patrick

I will pray for you and Jackie. I believe whatever door you open, it is God’s plan.

When I got a divorce 12 years ago, it was God’s plan, even though I did not want the divorce. I moved to Moreno Valley to be near my only child, her husband and my 3 grandchildren. I did not realize how unhappy I was until I moved to be closer to them and made a lot of new friends, and a new career @ 65 years old. I am very happy about my choice, It was God’s plan.

Blessings,

Debbie

Good morning Raoul, I’m praying for you Brother, keep in mind that I thought my ex was a blessing, she was a Trap, I thought my old job was a blessing, it was a Trap, I thought all my other job opportunities after my wrongful termination was a blessing, they were all Traps. Keep in mind these far left people in Government in California know who is smart and conservative. They are chasing Conservatives out of California with so called better opportunities. But when you leave you might realize it’s Trap. That’s why I won’t leave anywhere. I feel if I leave the Devil wins . Because my strong faith in God i know that we God Fearing people and conservatives will eventually run the Devil and his minions out of California, or better still — Stop them from Governing. I still feel that Traps are being set up against me but i know Jesus has me. WE CAN BRING MORE PEOPLE TO JESUS IN CALIFORNIA (Ca needs Jesus ) BUT WE HAVE TO STAY TO DO IT. Don’t let them chase you out . But Listen to whatever the Lord tells you. (not me lol ) I’ll just really miss you Brother, I’m praying for you to make the best decision. Love you Brother.

Thanks Raoul. I definitely will pray for you. Loved the skeleton on the phone.

I have a friend from (of all places) the Quarterbacks Club that after hearing I was being treated for Cancer sends me reflections every morning and I will send you what he sent this morning.

Hi Raoul,

Wow! Those are all major changes should you take them and very large decisions. There comes a time when no one thinks we can still function even if we think we can. It sounds like you want to make a major change in life and I suspect that you are not the only one involved in that big decision (wife, kids, grand kids, and close friends you have developed over the years). If your family are on board with whatever decision you are making, what is your plan when you get there if you are moving. Will it be something you really want to do? Philippines is a long way from where you are, but so is the east coast of the USA. I assume your wife has an idea or two on whether to move since she has a nice job already and is she ready to hang it up?

We considered moving to South Dakota, a place we really love and lived there at one time and still have many friends there and a seminary that was interested in me teaching for them again. My wife was excited about it and I took a trip last September to South Dakota and even spotted out some potential places and even put a deposit on a home, but alas, my wife changed her mind and wanted to stay near the kids and grand kids (and three great grand kids!) in CA. We stayed, but often ask if that was the right decision. It is no longer possible for us to make that move. I have found over the years that others always have a clear idea of what God’s will for me is, but seldom do they all agree on what I should do! I listen with patience and appreciation, but still make my own decision with agreement from Mary and what appears to be the best for now and the future. That has helped us to deal with major decisions.

May God give you clarity of thought and wisdom for what is best for you, wife and your family.
