So I've been out of the blogging world for the past couple of days. Tim, Layla and moved this weekend. Ever tried to move with a cold? I think everyone should try it sometime, in fact my parents are doing that right now. You learn what your made of - basic weakness and then you learn what God is made of - strength. The two go together quite well.
Friday night I'm lying in bed and I can't get to sleep because I'm so excited about our move. I emailed my mom the next morning and said "I just know that I know we are following God's will and that this is the next step that we are to take." We moved from out 2 1/2 storey house to an apartment - a basement apartment - a basement bachlor apartment. Huh? you say. There are any different reasons for this move which I won't get into right now. So we move! Saturday was an interesting day. The move itself went well. The place we are staying is really nice newly redone suite that is bright and has this huge yard for our dog. Speaking of the dog, thats when the day started to turn. Our dog, who we love (I think), chewed through the seat belts on the Uhual rental van while we were unloading the van. Just a note to keep in mind, insurance doesn't cover dog chewed belts your visa does. Then later that night we can not get our sweet little girl to settle and go to sleep. SO it 3am Layla is crying and we are exahusted. And hear God wispher "Do you know that you know?"
2 Corinthians 4:17
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all
At that moment I had to rely on the fact that less then 24 hours before had no doubt that I moving in the direction that God was asking us to move and hold on to that.
In those moments where you feel like the path is clouded and your afflications will over take you go back and remember what God had called you to and hold on to that.
