Officially moving out
May 13, 2011 No CommentsMy mother called me on two occasions today with news that she had extra money: first $100 then an unexpected check for $139. I kept telling God, “That’s great, but that is not enough to move me out of here.”
Shortly afterward, I broke down. “God, I have done everything you asked. Even when I didn’t like it. I left my family to follow you. I haven’t seen them in seven months, and you’ve made no provisions. I’ve walked this walk with no end in sight. What do you want from me?”
“Go home. Two week vacation,” God interrupted.
So, I called my mom and had to look up flights for me. As God would have it, Southwest has a special $89 fare for a flight out tomorrow. I will move out tonight and stay with a friend. Then, it is off to the airport tomorrow.
This is a welcome and much needed break. When I return, I will see what the next steps are and what provisions will be made for me.
