It's that wonderful feeling at the end of a semester, when all your assignments are turned in and the final has been taken. The sudden bliss of having a weight lifted off your shoulders . . . SO NOW WHAT???
The thing that has been driving you day to day is done and you look to the horizon and you see nothing. At least if I was working, I would have something else to look forward to, but being unemployed and not being able land a job that would feed my family, I seem stuck. Though my current situation is not even close, I feel as though I'm Israel, wandering the desert, eating the same thing every day, and sometimes longing to be back where I was. The strange thing is that whatever comes next, I am excited about it and so I wait with great expectation. Unfortunately, this is of little to no comfort for my wife, encourages laziness in myself, and it doesn't help me to lead my family somewhere. Fortunately, it is time to reflect and major on the basics, get life in order, get my family in order, and lead them towards God.
More to come later . . .
