I was nervous and anxious all day. Chris is starting full time at the base next week and with that change, he started telling me next year that we won't be in this house by this time next year. I was mad. I told him I didn't know where he was going to be, but I am satisfied here and this is where I am staying. I told him he is never satisfied and he said yes I was right. It's good for him to always have a goal and never just be happy with what he has. I disagree. What is the point in having good things if you never enjoy them and always want more? It's made me so stressed and anxious. But I started praying this afternoon (how dumb am I btw that I let this bother me all day instead of taking it to God) and looked up and saw a license plate that said "ASumGod" awesome God. And I smiled and I heard Him telling me "Don't worry! I got this!" And I felt so much relief. I am not afraid now. I know that Chris has these feelings and tendencies, but even if Chris leaves, God has a perfect plan for me and the kids and I trust that. It is true. He has got this.

Praise God that He is always there for us! If we would only go to Him from the get go :-) Btw Sharon, I know Veteran's Day can be a hard day for you; I have had you and Chris in my prayers all day today.

Adrienne, you are such a sweetheart! God has really been holding me in his wings these last few days. I haven't been depressed or sad. I stood up proudly at church to say that my husband is in the military. I can't keep hating him. I can't keep holding onto this record of wrongs. There is no moving forward except to fully forgive. Thank you for your prayers sister. It means so much to me.

Praying for you Sharon! So glad that you were able to experience his goodness in a moment of hurt and anxiety. God will work it out. And I understand how you feel about him never being satisfied but just keep praying about it. If you do end up with a new house next year then maybe that can be a blessing from God is disguise. Always try to find God in the messy situations. If you look, you'll find him there in the middle of it, turning it around for good ♡♡
