Making decisions

I have a really hard time making decisions that can potentially have lasting effects. I went to the ward I will be in if I end up moving, and it was really nice. I was a little worried the people would be stuck up and stuff, because the apartments are on the higher end of the cost scale... anyways fast and testimony meeting reassured me, these kids seem pretty solid. Two of the girls who would be my roommates bore their testimonies, and there were a lot of other great testimonies as well. I enjoyed all the lessons and thought that the ward would be a good fit. I even ended up knowing two people who are already in the ward!

My friend Cristina lives in the building next door, and so its not like I will be completely alone even if I don't make a ton of friends there. I am worried about that... and as I've been mulling things over in my mind, I am worried that the fear of starting over will drive me away from making this change, which will probably be good for me. When I was in the temple on Friday afternoon, I felt distinctly that either way I choose is okay, and that Heavenly Father won't just dump me. .. a strange use of words I guess, dumping, but.. I know He'll be there for me, even though this transition is going to be difficult. Now it just rests on whether I can sell my contract or not. If I stay, things will work out. If I go, things will work out... so I'm going to leave it up to Him. He knows what's best for me... and He's not going to leave me on my own.
