Yeah, I am still here and I know I will be here for the long haul. For right now, it feels like my situation is on hiatus. I had a rough day yesterday--one of those "Why am I doing this" days--and God smacked me in the head at church last night. We had a guest pastor and his service was on perseverance through the tough times and that God will reward the faithful that will stay in the game and fight the good fight. I guess that's us.
I do not know what is going on out on the big grey boat and do not know enough about the signs to try to figure it out. I am just loving your updates, Ali, as they just seem to reconfirm what God is already speaking to my heart.
I don't know if you ever drift by my thread, Ali, like Sunshine does, but I had posted something back before Christmas about my DH and why I will wait. Being a military spouse, I know the inherent risks of what my husband does, even though his is not an assignment that is exposed to obvious harm. Neither were the sailors aboard the USS Cole. But, I always knew, if something happened to my DH that I would be content to remain a widow for the rest of my life, because I have known true love in my marriage and would not want to try to replace it. So, you guys are stuck with me.
Living God's blessings with grace and dignity~ SMW
