When and where will we land?

 

Waiting is torture

We are in a holding pattern in so many areas of our life. It is like an airplane circling the airport, but it does not have permission to land. 

Our house is under contract (praise), but we are waiting for inspection reports and appraisals. It’s like it is sold, but it’s not.

Where are we going to live? The inventory on the market is very limited and those houses available are lacking. Do we buy a house, do we have enough time to close, do we store our furniture, where do we store our furniture, do we get a rental, do we get a short-term apartment, how short is short term…see circling, but no place to land.

When will my hair begin to grow again?  I finished chemo over a month ago but I am still losing hair, specifically my eyelashes and brows.

Will the radiation cause severe burns and rashes?  I am on day 6 of 20 and so far so good. I hope to be done on 2/7.

What college will Logan attend?  He has heard from 6/8, accepted to five, and deferred by one.  He will hear from his top two schools, NC State and Georgia Tech, by the end of the month. 

Each decision has a domino effect on the next, but we must land the plane to tip the first domino. 

Providentially, this is all God’s plan. In Psalm 37 David is stressed out because it seems that the people who do wrong, always prosper.  Though the subject matter is different, the words David wrote remain true.  “Do not fret…, Trust in the LORD and do good; Take delight in the LORD and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him and He will do this…be still before the LORD and wait patiently for Him…the LORD makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him.

Stay tuned to see how God shows up and where our plane lands
