A little more of our Story ... ~ The Grace Between

A little more of our Story …

I’ve been lurking around the edges of my life. Doing the bare minimum to get by … including my poor little blog. If you haven’t noticed, I do my best to meet you here at least once a week, but it has been a little while. I’ve been collecting thoughts, thinking of ways to tell you things and still keep my secrets. And they are all landing in the same place … and while I form my words and sketch them out in practice, please head on over to Christian Military Wives and read a little bit more of our crazy Army story

I love stories and storytelling. I love seeing the threads the Master Planner stitches into our lives and the ways they change us. But in all honesty, here’s the truth about the weaving: I didn’t design my tapestry this way. And the push and pull of the needle as it pricks my heart – well, sometimes the weaving hurts. There’s a particular thread that, for the longest time, I wanted to wish away. I prayed, begged, and pleaded for the Lord to cut it short. To change my story to fit what I wanted.

I’ve been staring at my computer for days trying to figure out how to fit all the emotions onto one screen, into one story.

How do I tell you that they called me when my daughter was five months old and told me I would be deploying in the fall?

…. to continue reading, I would love for you to join me over on the Christian Military Wives Blog.
