Chris is almost finished

with his last semester in of school. Graduation is Friday, May 9th. I counted and I realized, that makes us 52 days from total uncertainty. At this point we have no idea what we will be doing on May 10th. Will we be living in Dallas? Will I be needing to find a new job? Our lease is up at the start of May, so I know one thing for sure, we will be finding a new place to live. The problem is, I don't even know what city that will be in!
For anyone who knows me, you can imagine that this has been a real struggle for me. I am a planner! I like to know what comes next and exactly when it is coming, so that I can be prepared in every way. It has been so hard for me to be content in not knowing. I am finding myself getting really stressed over not having the stress of planning...how's that for ironic?
I know God is teaching me a lesson. I know he is trying to remind me to trust that his timing is perfect, and even as I am looking at the calendar seeing the days slip away, he knows exactly how and when everything will fall into place. What is so frustrating is that this isn't the first time God has felt the need to teach me this lesson. I guess he thinks I am not getting it...wonder why that is?
