The "Ah-hah" Moment

I remember when we were getting ready to move down here, Phil and I said that in a year or so it will all make sense. I remember about 3 months into our move, us reminding ourselves that someday we will be sitting on the couch and say "yes, this is where we belong". To be honest, that hope kept us here when we, actually I, really wanted to run away. I remember about 10 months after our move, we were sitting on the couch saying "is this why we are here?". And, about two nights ago, sitting on the couch saying "ah-hah". We know we are here for something bigger than a job with Les Schwab. I am so glad my life doesn't revolve around my husbands job, but that my husbands job revolves around where God wants us.


We are so blessed to be here. I have found that during the last year the storm has raged, doubts have come and then faith has been renewed, loneliness has come and gone, so many tears have been shed and then God has brought us smiles. But, I know without a doubt our family is where we belong. God has been good to us and continues to remind us that there is more to life then our "immediate" happiness and contentment.


I am so thankful for the hope of the "ah-hah" and a God that continues to teach us and love us until we get to the point of "Not my will, but Thy will be done".
