Former things

So, I'm just sitting here playing scrabble on http://www.pogo.com/ and trying to relax for a bit.  I've been feeling this deep yearning for God more so lately than normal.  Years ago I started attending church regularly with my husband and kids.  We became really involved with different ministries in our church and we LOVED it.  At times it did become overwhelming because there were only a few people that stepped up and did the work, but we did love it just the same.
A few years later it seemed that our church was going in the wrong direction and became more of a people focus, and people wanting to get credit for what they did instead of a Godly focus.  People were not focusing on what it was that we were going to church for.  We weren't supposed to be going to see and be seen.  We were there for one purpose and that was to worship our creator, and give him praise, honor, and glory.  So at that point my family and I left that church that we had been dedicated to for years.
I've attended several different churches since then, but haven't put my "membership" anywhere else.  Mostly the churches that I have attended are "big" churches.  I haven't felt the same kind of connection to a church since our first one.
At our first church we had about 80-120 members regularly.  It was a small church compared to the ones I've been attending.  We were close and like a family, and I haven't found that "family" I still long to have.
I know that God has a place that he wants me to go to...where?  I don't know. 
Now don't get me wrong, the churches I've visited are nice, the people are friendly, the Pastors are great, and preaching the word correctly.  BUT I'm still lacking something in the church that I once had.
I pray that God will lead me and direct me and my family to where it is that he wants us to be.  I pray that I will continue to be strong in my faith and to lean on God and his promises.  Keep me in your prayers people.
