6:34 Then have no care for tomorrow: tomorrow will take care of itself. Take the trouble of the day as it comes. Matthew 6:34
Huh, how many time have we read that verse and said "Ok, I can do that." ? I know I read it everytime I'm "worried" about something. (I've read it about 17 times within the last 24 hours). I'm not worried in the sense that I believe something bad is going to happen, or even that something bad could happen. I'm just anxious about the next three or four months of our life. We are going through some transition (Carlos entering the USAF, our family moving to a new place, but most importantly, Basic Training). I have no doubts that Carlos will not only "get through" BMT but that he will excel and finish as an Honor Graduate. It's Eggo and me I'm worried about.. Of course I'm gonna miss him, that's a given, but I can handle myself and know that I will see him on a certain day. Diego, on the other hand, doesn't have a sense of time...not a very good one anyway. All he's gonna know is that his dad is not there anymore. We're planning to make this as easy as possible for him (have him look at pictures, record videos and such) but I've never had to guide a toddler through a long episode of separation anxiety before. No doubt it'll be tough, but I'm sure God will get us through it. If He gets us in it, He will get us through it. Please keep us in your prayers as we adjust in the following months. |
