I am good. I am sort of here. Sneaking a few minutes to post while he is at the school eating lunch with the little girls.
Things are weird. He is going to MI tomorrow. I am not sure when he will be back. He went to church yesterday--barely made it through D9's baptism and left as soon as they did altar call before service started.
I have him confused. He is not sure what to make of the changes in me--physically, emotionally, mentally--that have occurred while he was gone. He is constantly seeking me out to talk about the cruise, his job, and how bad the deployment sucked. I have been friendly and validating. I have not broguth her up at all.
I had one brief panic on Saturday afternoon. Mike and a friend from church got me through it--Thanks again Mike. I have been in contact with Amy and Crissy and they are keeping me focused and grounded, as is my mom, who is suddenly 100% on board with everything I am doing. Greek--I texted you several times--I am thinking I put the number in the phone wrong.
I will be in tomorrow to post about all that has gone on. Keep praying for us--pray the plane breaks down, he misses his connections, it rains the whole time, she has to work long hours, the chemistry is no longer there, and that he misses the kids so much that he calls them constantly--so I can avoid answering the phone.
I had a moment of doubt this morning--until I opened my emails and read my devotionals.
The first was Philippians 3:9--"not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but one that comes through the faithfulness of the Messiah, the righteousness that comes from God and that depends on faith."
The second was Luke 15:20--The story of the Prodigal Son, which is often used to refer to WAS--"So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him."
God is faithful and I can do ALL things through Him who strengthens me. I will be good.
God has already assured me of this victory, I merely await on the pleasure of the Lord for its completion. Thank you all for being here and caring about us so much!!
Living God's blessings with grace anddignity~ SMW
no need to thank me..you know I'm always around...you also know that I probably won't say exactly what you want to hear either..I will listen...
I will say your conviction and faith that this will all work out is pretty amazing..I'm assuming it's conviction and faith...or maybe it's just that your stubborn as hell or have another reason...
anyway..I hope it all works out the way you want it too...I'm around..always..
