Yep, it's been way too long since I last posted something! In fact, it's been so long, i honestly forgot my password. So, because of that, I'm just going to try to type what I'm thinking and not over think, over analyze, reread ten times and worry about how someone might take this or how idiotic I might sound. "Here goes something."
If ever I felt like this world is not my home, today is it. Without going into the details about what my family has been through in the past 15 months, trust me when I say I...we are in a season of redo's. Well, today I got up, had some coffee, watched some news, and made a grocery list. This morning I was going to knock out the shopping, followed by taking the kids to the movies this afternoon. Feeling quite lovely about being on the ball and right on schedule, I get into my truck to do the shopping, only for it to not even remotely roll over. So, in most cases this isn't a big deal, especially when my only priorities are grocery shopping and a movie. However, today this redo felt different, a feeling I didn't much like.
First thought...crappo!! Really?? OK, let's hope it's just the battery!
Second thought... who do I call? (My husband is out of town for work.) This really shouldn't be too difficult, but today it was. So many people are gone for spring break, but honestly that wasn't the issue. The issue was, WHO do I call? I live in a town that doesn't feel like home. I go to church in a town that is not my home. I live in a home that is not my home. Confused yet??
Third thought...this world is not my home. I will be disconnected and homeless until I get HOME.
It was the last thought that was a little unsettling. Maybe I should have found it to be encouraging. Thank God this "home" is just a blink in eternity's eye!
I still don't know if it's just the battery and we will get to see the movie tomorrow. However, on this day of redo's or plan B's or whatever you wish to call it, I can sit in this chair that is not mine and know without a doubt, what is mine. I am promised a home where I know I will belong, where I will live in peace, I will have complete joy, and I will never fear!!! Oh what a glorious day that will be...
(Thank you to those who were so willing to help today...you know who you are!)
