Hubby graduates in 7 days and a wakeup! Still no orders.
Some of the guys in his class got theirs yesterday, so I had hope we would get ours before the weekend, but that didn’t happen. Obviously nothing will happen for the next 3 days because it’s a holiday weekend, so the soonest we will know anything will be Tuesday…just 2 days and a wakeup before he graduates & drives home! I’m guessing the movers won’t be coming before Hubby gets home at this point.
Wow. This is just our own version of an Army initiation, right
God has a sense of humor, of this I have no doubt. I know this because I am a bit of a control freak. I’m a planner. This is stripping me of that. There isn’t a thing I can do to prepare. So far since right before Hubby signed the papers, every time we think we know what direction we are going in, the Army (& God!) change plans. Actually neither the Army nor God are changing their minds – they just didn’t do what WE were expecting.
Now, I can’t look up directions, housing, local attractions – nothing. Right now we are looking at a possibility of 3 different states, and given the Army, it *could* be even more, but we have 3 scenarios in front of us that we can see.
This week I’ve been reading in Ephesians, and a couple days ago I read this:
“For He himself is our peace” – Ephesians 2:14
I can have peace about all of this because of Jesus! He knows where we are going and he has prepared the way for us. I don’t have to know until it’s time. I would like to know…I would REALLY like to know! But, I can have peace because I know that HE is in control. His ways, his thoughts and his timing are so much better than mine anyway.
