A husband even when he is not here...

So Ryan left for Colorado last Monday to start the journey into this next chapter of our lives. It killed me, I was a moping wreck for several days, and even now a week and half later I still am part of the days.

Physically I have no husband by my side. He has gone to make the way for me.

So last Monday with tears streaming down my face, I prayed to God to help me get thru it and said to him" Okay God, you are my husband for now."

Sure enough, faithful as always he is there, at every turn, taking care of me.

He has been my comfort when I couldn't sleep(with the exception of last night), and even done husabandly duties around the house from providing help when the hot water heater stopped working, to the trash cans.. Yes even the trash cans.

The trash cans are normally Ryan's job, he rolls them down every Thursday night, so when Friday comes they are ready for the weekly city pickup. Well yesterday was Friday, and I was in a hurry like all mornings with my teenager to get him to school.
I opened my garage and they were already rolled down the drive way.I ask my son if he did it, and no he didn't.

I called Ryan to ask if he had someone do it, No.. God had it done...

It just brought tears to my eyes to see that even something so small as getting the trash cans rolled down was done for me. Then when I arrive home the trash cans were rolled back up the driveway when I pulled in. I just couldn't believe it.. He took care of it all for me.

Everyday I am learning to rely on, and love him just a little more. Seeing that he is faithful and will take care of me.

Colorado

Okay so I haven't exactly come here and been the becon on the hill I wanted to be when I thought of this blog, but it's never too late.  So I am here again.

So to catch up to current.. Ryan got a new assignment for work, and We got a new assignment overall. Hence the title of this post. Yep, we are moving to Colorado.
I will write more on this later.

Today, God reminded me of my post from back in October 2010, titled Wise Words from a Sister.

I went down for prayer this morning, and my father says to me thru the lady praying.

" I have numbered your steps, you have a purpose and you will shine like a becon on the hill top."

Instantly I am taken back to October when I prayed to be a light, to be the becon on the hill that I am supposed to be.

Talk about literal.

I am moving to the mountains of Colorado, and on the mountain top I will shine. I will let him shine thru me and we will take back the mountains.
