back to the airport

I am up early so I can actually do my hair before we head out to the airport to pick up Chuck. It has been 3 weeks since he came home last and this is the last ticket we have for him. I am just believing and trusting that we get a contract by the end of July. The place that he has been staying will become unavailable as of the end of August (not sure where he will stay after that). It has been a rough few days (I have a post running around in my head to share the details).

I think I have figured out that this whole process is like a ride at the amusement park. I feel like I have been strapped into a roller coaster and can't get off. There are ups and downs, twists and turns and it is thrilling yet terrifying at the same time. This whole thing has taken me out of my comfort zone and forced me to rely on God's strength like never before. The moment I think the coaster is coming to a stop is takes off again for another wild ride. I think I might enjoy the merry-go-round better. Smaller highs and lows and much more predictable. There is even music and all of your family waving on the side each time you pass by them. I am just not sure that I am enjoying the ride of this adventure. I am trusting that God knows when the ride is coming to a complete and full stop so I can hop off. =)
