So, yeah.....I've been really discouraged lately. It's called STRESS. House, move, relationships, work. The list goes on. And you know what doesn't help.....when the weather is so so bad. I'm praying that God will take me out of this storm, because I'm screaming on the inside. It's starting to blur my view of the "lollipops and rainbows".
So, yes....we are moving....in two weeks. "When did you find out?" Glad you asked.....exactly two weeks ago. Our house is on the market. We don't know where we will be living/staying in two weeks. We don't know the exact day we are moving out. We don't know how long we will be at the next post. I don't have time to hang out with all of my girlfriends before I leave....I barely see E. We just bought moving boxes two days ago. I'm quitting my job and remaining jobless for the time being. And....for the first time ever, I'm moving farther than 8 hours away from my precious mom and dad.
All of these things have me stressed....but then I think about how things could be MUCH worse. I have a great and happy life. Not only that, but God has been faithfully opening and closing doors for us so smoothly. I am a blessed woman and promise you I'm learning some things in this storm-it's called patience (something I don't think I'll ever learn enough of)......but God forgive me for blurring my own view of how good I actually have it.
((((((Mrs.H))))) sending lots of hugs your way! sorry its so overwhelming at the moment...but we can't wait to have you all so close! this blog http://walkslowlylivewildly.com/2011/04/04/weekend-projects-minimalist-links/ has been very encouraging for me...and today she posted all about decluttering...great reading for those much needed packing breaks...the more you let go, the less there is to pack and move and unpack.
ReplyDeletei'm praying the next 2 weeks will be filled with lots of time spent with good friends....and as little as possible on packing stuff. love you all lots!!!!
