Subject: no move to Ontario

I am so sad that there is not going to be a move back home anytime soon....which is so confusing because I had such agood 'feeling' about it all. It was the answer to so many problems that just don't seem solvable here not mention my mom. This is one of the only times that I've actually ferevently prayed for anything since Ricki died in '93. When I was pregnant with him, my 2 little girls and me prayed several times a day that "the baby wouldn't die in my tummy" but of course that's exactly where he did die. That kind of made me gun shy ya know. I could pray for run of the mill stuff. I could pray for other people but I just couldn't bring myself to ask for anything really important. But I did pray about this move and every prayer I uttered seemed to answered so quickly and everything pointed in the direction of moving back home...but then in a matter of hours..puff it was gone....and here I sit wondering how I could have been so incredably out of tune to so grossly misinterpret the spirit??? sigh...or was this some punishment? or test????? I am confused and heart broken.

It is not a punishment Robin - sometimes we have to sit back and wait for the Lord to make things happen in His own due time. And I know from personal experience, it never seems fast enough for me. And you must remember when Glenn had had a blessing when I was pg with Hannah and he had seen himself giving her a Name and Blessing...so he told me, totally believing his interpretation of the vision, that the drs were wrong and she would be fine. So, I lived on that single vision he had received. It wasn't until after she had died and months had passed and Glenn asked in prayer why God had showed him that if she was going to die...and God's simple answer in return was 'When did I ever tell you it was her?'

I think what I am trying to tell you Robin is that the doors to the transfer back home are certainly not closed. The Lord can and will do what He knows needs to be done, in the proper time frame. What He does and how He manages are not to be our concern, but faith and continued prayer are.

You keep praying - you learn to realize that this abased feeling you have is the adversary itself keeping you down and just look forward and stop looking back. Put your hand to the plow, Robin, and look forward with faith - everyone here is praying for you and your family. I've known you for years and nothing would make me happier than to know you are home with your family.

Now speaking of the military, Les still refusing to ask for the transfer on compassionate grounds? He needs to just get on it with that in mind - you've more than just your mother to put on the list as Georgia needs more medical attention than that area can provide. We've a chaplain in Shilo that is transferring to Ottawa because they don't like how little therapies their daughter with Down syndrome receives - and if they can get it, you can get it.

Call me tonight or tomorrow around noon my time - we'll chat. Luv you sweetie pie....

Jo

I wish I could make everything better for you.
This is one of those times that the Lord is with you and there is some reason that he needs you to stay put for now.
My prayers are with you and your family
