a lesson in God's timing

We prayed for His timing and His hand to be on us as we go through this process. We knew that it would take some time. We have gotten our answer. Unfortuately that means that we get to...wait.
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, here's a quick recap. During our church's Sacred Gathering, my husband and I were called to full-time international missions. After several confirmations from God, we went ahead and started the application process and prayed for God's timing as we took a major step on faith. Well, he answered. We need to wait. We are ready to just pack up and leave, but apparently God has some more for us to do here before we are sent. I'm okay with that. A little sad, but okay. So...pray for us and stay tuned for updates as we see what He has planned for us here.
