Which way do I go George?

At most points in the journey of my life the next step has always been very clear. About a year ago, feeling burned out and used up, it seemed like God open a door for me and my family. A great opportunity to go into the private sector and live a "normal" life outside of the fish bowl. Ange and I were thrilled at the chance for a better life for us and the kids and then 2 weeks before we were to move half way across the country the bottom feel out and opportunity went bye-bye.

So here I am a year later and a lot wiser, but now totally gun shy about stepping out of my present situation. I even find it hard to hear the voice of God, circumstances tell me to get out of Dodge, I've already given 12 years of my life to this work and have very little to show for it, but then I receive random emails of encouragement from unlikely sources. As the song says, "Should I stay or should I go?" or as the wisdom of the Loney Tunes says it, "Which way do I go George, which way do I go?"
