Always a Journey

I believe that the Lord hears and answers prayers. Sometimes those answers take a while to find while others come clear and quickly. Last year as I was praying about my husband’s career I felt like I had an answer straight from heaven. We were in the last year of law school and we’d seen plenty of opportunities come and go, including several I hadn’t felt good about. We were looking into an option at a small firm in Logan but I had the distinct feeling that we should go into the Air Force. Amazed at how clearly I felt about it I asked God in prayer if that was truly the right choice. I was shocked when I received a clear affirmative again. I, bring me, asked again, and again I felt like heavenly guidance whispered in my mind “Yes! This is the path for you!” I was dumbfounded. I had only a couple times before felt like I’d gotten such a clear response from heaven.
I couldn’t help but wonder why and I’m ashamed to say I still doubted a bit. I could go into all of the stuff that happened but maybe I’ll save that for another post sometime. The simple version is that doors began opening like you wouldn’t believe and now here we are, one year later, with a TFOT start date and a 80-page new Air Force spouse orientation packet. Who could have believed it? I didn’t at first! But here we are, and I’m so grateful. I figured I’d start a blog to help me document my experience, for Who knows what’s on its way and I’d love to share whatever comes with anyone who’d like to hear how the Lord works in the life of an Air Force wife.
