Pooh has it right/ so does Piglet

Man, I certainly have had days like this, as Pooh is referring to these times.  This has been one of those weeks for our family.

My son was on tract to finish his masters degree by this August and because of increased National Guard drills due to a possible activation in a years time he has had to withdraw. He was just starting the student teaching phase and would not be able to get the amount of days needed for this because of the increase in the drill times. This has been a hard thing! All the dreams put on hold indefinitely and now what? He has a year before any possible activation.    Our plans are often not God's plans for us........but sometimes this leaves us in a quandary!

  1. Some day we are going to see the needlepoint God has been stitching from the front, instead of seeing the threads on the back.

    Hope all rights itself soon for each of you.

  3. I just love Pooh...

    We need to trust in a higher power
    when our plans go astray or delayed.
    We have to believe that there will be a much
    better outcome waiting for us.

  4. Kim, I'm sorry to hear that, it seems such a waste for your son. Will he be able to pick up the study again later?
