I am in awe right now, of just ALL the amazing awesomeness that God is to me.
Ryan got his orders today.
And I can't begin to explain how joyful and equally FLABBERGASTED I am at God. I just.. I can't explain it. I wanna cry and jump up and down and sit in His presence and praise Him out loud just for EVERYTHING!!!!! He told me that I couldn't depend on the military for anything and that I had to put my trust in Him because HE knew what was best AND HE DOES.. Everything in His timing.. And why this timing? Only He knows, but I'm not complaining that it's here.
I don't even feel like I was completely faithful in trusting the words He told me, but HE CAME THROUGH and now Ryan and I will both be in SD around the same time next weekend.. Then off to Guam.. And off to finally starting our new lives together. In a house.. And we'll set up a baby room.. And decorate our house together.. Alright, I'm going to stop before I soak the keyboard with happy tears. <3
God, I'm just gunna take this time to thank You for all you've done.. You're worthy of all the praise and I will continue to dedicate my life to Your work and will.

No Worries..
This morning, I didn't feel like doing devotion, but I got outta bed and cranked up my worship playlist until Hillsongs filled my little hotel room. After praying for a friend on FB [the challenge that God gave me a while back] I began to pray for Ryan and just our life together.
To just update everyone, my husband, Ryan, has been graduated from Tech school for about a month now and we've been waiting on his orders so that we can get stationed. Although, it just seems like one thing after another keeps getting in the way of us starting our new life together. Medical problems, application complications etc. Anything and everything. And now that I really think about it, its all from the devil. It's very discouraging and the complete opposite of the spirit of God.. Anyways, Ryan got tested for Cycstic Fibrosis and we are waiting on his test results; if they come back positive, Guam won't want us there [lack of ability to medically treat our child] and we'll have to wait to be reassigned.. I've been on edge. Majorly.
Back to this morning, though, one of the first things I heard Him say was: "..those test results are NOT your destiny. I AM; and what I have is so much better. Do you trust me?" I was taken aback. And was immediately flooded with the "huge revelation" that whether or not his test results come back + or - its only because its apart of God's plan... Wherever we end up, its beause that's where God WANTS us to be. However my child comes out, it'll be because its God apart of His plan. And having faith that God has my best interests in mind, I can relax knowing that I really have nothing to worry about. And I don't take it lightly. What a huge burden has been lifted. NO amount of smiley faces could express how joyful and just... at peace I am. He's got it under control. I know it.
Bring on the test results..
1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in ALL circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus
