Are We There Yet?

Post by Nicole:

This seems to be the girls' favorite question...needless to say, the answer was usually no. On Saturday morning, we left Fort Jackson, SC for our new home....Fort Hood, TX. We had everything planned out for the trip, including a reservation for along the way. Needless to say, the baby didn't want to cooperate with our plan. We ended up cancelling the hotel and finding another one two hours short of our original stop. After two very long days, we finally arrived on post this morning.

The Lord knows what we need when we need it. As I was sitting in the parking lot, waiting for Angel to get information on housing I received a phone call from a lady who attended our old church in Hanover. She wanted to let us know that we have been on her heart and mind and that she was praying for us. I gave her an update on our situation and she encouraged me about the housing that at least we are all together. Not long after that Angel came out and said that we would be receiving on post housing in the next day or two. YEH!!

Are you looking for a breakthrough in your life? Trust God! He may not always move in the manner in which we think He will.....but get ready for Him to move! Tonight Angel met with someone in housing and rec'd the keys to our 4 bedroom duplex.

Praise God! What a blessing! This brought back very similar memories for me. Fort Hood was our first duty station. I didn't know a soul there. God provided housing right away, and I found PWOC.

I found your blog on Amy's blog, so I'll look forward to staying in touch. Merry Christmas and May this New Year bring Blessings Abundant!

WOW, a house on post immediately. You will have to go and encourage the next Spouses Seminar. At least you didn't have to use your case scenarios for this one. Thank you for your encouragement and we look forward to crossing paths again. You are inspiring me for the future.
