Waiting for our Cloud to Move

So, September is almost over. Each morning, I wake up wondering if today will be the day we hear about our son. It is a weird place to be. Some days, it isn't that difficult. Other days, I obsess. I just can't help it. I am trying to strike the balance between being excited in a good way and being anxious in a bad way. You get the idea.

This morning, I was reading about the Israelites wandering in the desert where God directed them through a cloud in the day and through fire by night. It struck me that they woke up every morning, wondering if they were going to move or stay. There must have been a lot of unknowns. Hmmm. In a way, it comforted my heart to know that, in a way, we are doing the same. It is o.k. to wake up each day with a little bit of unknown because God knows. And, we trust Him and his perfect timing. So, we will wait for our cloud to move us to the next step in this journey.
