my epiphany

I almost forgot to share my epiphany. Well, it did happen a few weeks ago and even though I almost forgot to share it, I certainly haven't forgotten about it.

Andy hasn't been too happy with his job for a while. Basically, to make a long story short, too much work, not enough time and not enough help. He does love what he does though. He talks about moving and starting a new job IN THE SOUTH and I am always supportive of the talk (and would be a move too). Well, he would love to transfer to the mill in Macon Georgia. For some reason the co. is not on the same boat with him so far. They also have a mill is West Monroe, LA. He went down there recently and it was brought to his attention that they would love to have him transfer to West Monroe. He then made a comment about his wife not liking that idea. He had every right to make that comment because I had my heals so dug in the ground I wasn't going to budge at the thought of moving to Louisiana. But a few days after he got home is when the epiphany came. Actually to be truthful, I think God hit me upside the head because one second my heals were dug and the next they were free. He made me realize that it wasn't my choice. I don't get to decide where God want us to be. I am not in control. If God wants us to move to LA, then we will move to LA. It was funny, I told Andy all this and then when I was done I told him I would go to Louisiana if that is what God wanted from us, but I still wouldn't choose it. I don't know if we really will end up in LA at some point or if it was just a means for God to remind me it's His will not mine! Either way, it was eye opening. I need to be in support and respect of my husband in all things that are not against God's will. Not to say Andy wants to go to LA either, but they want him there and who am I to hold him back if he wanted to choose to do that?

Plus, it's gotta be warmer then Michigan! :)
