I know waiting STINKS and changes in course are confusing, but it will happen. I love your honest struggle and that you put it out there. I appreciate it because I am at the base of a mountain too and have only taken a very few steps. Praying with you, Lani.

I loved your post today. :) It's so true that we have to put down what we hold right now to trust that what we get instead will be just as good if not better. I'm going to grab hold of my next present and move past the fear. Praying for you and your family. (and I just wanted to say hi from a fellow Canadian!

Maybe the message might've been tweaked to give hope to those women to hang in there. I'm in my 26th yr and I daresay every marriage goes through those swings. <br />Thanks for the review!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823919278259760743noreply@blogger.com
