Just When I Think I Have Things Figured Out......

Just when I think I have everything figured out..............I realize I do not. In the span of a weekend I lost the security of my Mama Phillips and the security of my husbands job. My grandmother passed away last night. She was an amazing woman who has such a legacy of Love for her family and for her God. I miss her already. My husband lost his job, and the anger/fear/anxiety I expect to feel are not there. I have instead a peace that God has something in store for us. Don't get me wrong, I am not happy about this.......but I am peaceful. And as John Waller sings in his song I Am Waiting..............I am waiting on you Lord, and I am hopeful. Though it is painful, but patiently I will wait. I will move ahead bold and confident, taking every step in obedience. While I'm waiting, I will will serve you. While I'm waiting I will worship. I will not fade, I'll be running the race even while I wait. We ask for your prayers as we wait. Peacefully.
