Windy Red-nesday

Well, I can smell the winds of change...... and I don't like it. I don't like change, I like things calm and bored. All of a sudden there is an opportunity, an opportunity I have been waiting for a long time, but now that is so close I have second thoughts, what if is not what I expected?, what if the kids don't like it?, what if it's not the right time?, is this the best for our kids? But.... if I let this opportunity go by I will be wondering "What If.... I took the chance, what if I did make the move?... Human Nature, NEVER satisfied.


My Bambino's bedroom, lots of red in here. My kids bedrooms is my favorite corner of our home, they are full with dreams, peace, innocence.


I know that God is in control and I wonder if He allowed this 'sudden' opportunity because I have been asking for it for months, but I never expected it to be this way, You see, I had "planned" every single detail in my mind and of course NOTHING is going as I planned, maybe He wants to see if I trust Him, not the bank account, not the car, not ourselves, maybe He wants to see if I really got this little thing called "faith" right.


Dinosaur BB-Q this delicious red sauce makes the best ribs in The USA yuuuummm!!


I know HE CAN DO EVERYTHING, for Him there is NO IMPOSSIBLE, but there is this part of my carnal body that wants to have the control and there is an internal battle going on, just as Paul said : “I do the things I don’t want to do but the things I want to do those I don’t do”.

I love US BBQ sauces!
I hate going in my kids bedrooms, cos they're soooo untidy - teenagers!!!
Thanks for your visit to my RT, and your insightful comment "freedom is not free"- I'm going to add that after the picture, cos it sums it up.

Oh Cotty,

I am standing beside you agreeing with you.
It's like we THINK we know what we want, and so we keep asking God to do this or do that....PLEASE....and then we go through the waiting, so wanting that change, and BOOM! God brings along an answer, and we go all wonky on Him.... Wait...this isn't what I meant...I was hoping this....I meant for you to do this...NOTICE all the "I's" in that reaction???? This is so upside down from what I meant Lord...
But then as you say, and I wholeheartedly agree...if it had been done OUR way, we wouldn't have needed ONE BIT OF FAITH...because it was all planned in OUR minds and we were doing the travel plans...not God. God certainly has a way of giving us a wake-up call doesn't HE???
We have to stop and ask ourselves...wait a minute...whose journey are we on anyway...
ours ....or HIS???? Who is up there looking down and can see the journey all the way from the first step to the last step and can see all the bends and curves and dangers and can plan the route for us best??? Oh Yeah...that would be our Ultimate Protector and Mapmaker....GOD.
So please know I understand all the emotions and thoughts and ponderings and questions you are going through...and again, I can picture God sitting there on HIS throne in all HIS wisdom and all HIS love saying...Child...BE STILL...STop your mental striving...Trust ME. I love you. I have your BEST in mind...I am Always in control...whether you feel it or not. Lean not on your lack of "understanding" of these unveilings to you. My ways are higher than your ways. Pray...Talk to me...Stay ever so close to ME. Lean on ME. I will be with you as long as all you do is to give me the glory of all that will occur in your life...This is what I bring to you Cotty, my dear bloggy sis. God is Good. He DOES take care of us. He only wants us to trust HIM....even as you want your kids to trust you when they don't understand why...
I am praying for you!!! Thank you for praying for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hugs and Love to you Cotty!

I haven't tried that BBQ sauce yet, I might give it a try some day. We love Baby Ray's.

Yup, it is very hard sometimes but all we can do is pray that we make the right decision for the better.
