Step 2: Waiting

Sometimes waiting can be difficult. When I was young, I couldn't wait to grow up. High School - couldn't wait to be in college. College - Couldn't wait to be married. Married - Can't wait to have kids. Why is it that I/we always have to be looking to the future?

This week has been different in that Aaron and I are enjoying this sweet and precious time of waiting. We cannot do anything about our future. We can't sell our house any faster, it's too early to apply for jobs, too early to pack, too early to buy a house, etc. So we wait. Although we've definitely had our share of anxiety, we're soaking up the peace we feel as we walk, talk, and pray together. We've been spending almost every afternoon here:


Ahhhhh, peaceful, eh? So, although we're at a turning point in our lives, I can definitely say that I will look back at this time and remember it as a precious time of waiting and relying on God. What a great week :)
