Blog My Sojourn Live

Well, another chapter in the Solin continued transition.  Our house continues to be on the market—I think we are no in day 46 or so.  Centerville High School starts Wednesday and Cooper was really hoping to tryout for Centerville Hockey—so we are renting an apartment in Centerville so that Cooper can get started on time, and we can be a little closer during the week for work and school.

 

So the saga continues—during my time at FarHills Community Church it was really tough on Cooper not being able to connect with other students in the ministry.  It was also tough on all of us to be back and forth—sometimes staying in Dayton for hours for an hour meeting and then head home—long days for sure.

 

It is a little much right now—watching Alex fly to Australia a few weeks ago—today watching Cooper drive to Dayton to stay at mom and dad’s so he can get up to start Centerville while Marcie and I live here—very weird.  I have wondered today if God is preparing my boyz to be independent.  Has Marcie and I prepared them for being on their own?  I don’t think so—but there is no other way around this—it has been a long couple of years—lots of twist and turns and really pointing me to Trust in God about everything… everything. 

 

Trusting in God goes beyond the typical daily things—yes—this is about trusting Him with the big picture—the whole picture--- my life, Marcie’s life, my 2 great boys life.  The how, the why, the when, the where—everything—and I will admit, it is not always easy.  Today was one of those days.

 

Yes God has a plan.  Yes I am supposed to be back at Fairhaven.  Yes there is a reason for all this—but, really?  Yes it is time to trust in Him hugely.  Trust Him for every detail.  To trust Him not only with eternity, but with the next year and more years to come till eternity.  Tonight is one of those nights when I think I have a garage full of stuff that the realtor told us to move out in the garage—you know to sell the house—I am still moving boxes to my office at Fairhaven… the boyz are in transition, I am still in transition and trusting Him with His plan isn’t so easy. 

 

But, I’m sure that trusting Him is where He wants to be… trusting Him with and for everything.

 

Psalm 37:4-6 

 ⁴ Delight yourself in the LORD
       and he will give you the desires of your heart.

 ⁵ Commit your way to the LORD;
       trust in him and he will do this:

 ⁶ He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
       the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
