FAITH

Hebrews 11:1

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

During this time of waiting, I know my faith is increasing. I have been ready to trust God and run through whatever open doors He opens knowing that's where we were supposed to be. The things is I started to feel like all I was doing was waiting for a door to open and it wasn't happening. Days came where I was discouraged because I wanted an answer right then about Caleb's job opportunities.  I had neglected having faith somewhere along the way. Waiting soon started feeling more like a burden. Anxiousness started mixing in with the excitement for changes ahead. This turned into excitement waning and eagerness and anxiousness building. I began to wonder why I was feeling so anxious. I was lacking in faith. This time is not "our lives on hold" as I've said to some people. That is the completely wrong attitude that showed my lack of faith.

I rejoice in the fact that this is not my attitude now because God has filled me with joy in finding my faith anew in him again. We are where we are supposed to be right now, and the changes that are being made are in my heart, attitude, and life. I rejoice today for where Caleb & I have been, where we are right now, and where we are going. I am so thankful for a wonderful husband and our two great families that are praying for us as we wait and anticipate what changes the future holds.

And again, I repeat

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
