We are once again preparing for a move. My house is a mess and I have a friend coming over tomorrow to help me pack. I'm a little embarrassed at how messy my home is but as I spoke to myself I realized thatI can not let embarrassment keep me from being humble and from accepting help. I only cause more stress and strain on myself if I do not allow others to help me.
We are in the final stages of the application process to rent the new place. We are very excited and also in deep prayer as we do not want anything to happen that God would not want to happen for us. Mainly because I'm tired of doing things my way in life and learning leassons the difficult way. I am learning to surrender control over to my heavenly Father, which has at times been very hard for me.
Our goal move date is March 13, and yes that is exactly the day before Ellie's 1yr b-day :) We have a lot of things to do in such a short time besides just finalizing paper work we have to make other type of moving arrangments. Then the week after we move I have to apply for medical coverage which I am not nervous about at all. I already called to see if we would qualify and we do and may possibly already have another OB doctor set up as well.
It's really amazing how not stressed I am about making this move if God allows it to happen. I really have peace and I don't feel foolish packing ahead of time because if its one thing that we know for sure is we know that we have to live somewhere cheeper it's the biggest expense that we can cut. So it's either move now, or move after the baby is born and if we're packed and ready to go then it will only make things easier when the time comes.
I'm also really just praying for God's protection. He knows the future, I don't and if moving is going to cause something to happen that puts even more dire straints on my little family I don't want it. I would rather wait. Which is not always something that I am good at doing.
I have really been praising God a lot lately because he is changing me. I am thankful for a husband who prays for my spiritual and personal growth just about if not everyday. I am blessed. My husband challenges me and he may not perfect but he's willing to love someone else that isn't perfect as well and I am thankful.
Lately, I have just been more in love with my husband. This time really is precious for us, it really has been hard and challenging, but it really is precious for us and I want to embrace that. I thank all of those that have challenged me to embrace the preciousness that is this time of my life.
