Sometimes, you never know where life will take you and often times, we are not expecting some major twist and turns…or at least we don’t expect them to hit all at once.
And that’s where I find myself right now.
Alongside my husband, together, we are currently making some huge decisions that will ultimately be life altering for us.
And for our children.
I believe that the man upstairs has a plan for us and even when we may not be ready for all of this change, it’s coming.
But for us right now, it’s coming all at once.
I have faith that the man upstairs will never give us more than we can bear, even when the change seems overwhelming because it’s part of a bigger plan – a master plan to which we have very little control, one that has been scripted and just ready to be played out; one that is part of the ultimate plan that is meant to be – but unfortunately, we just can’t fully see that right now because we’re still in mid-flight.
I’ve been anticipating some changes and have been ready to deal with them. However, my husband and I have been thrown a few curve balls and now we have to make some huge decisions that will alter the course of the rest of our lives but hopefully, for the better.
Amidst this change, my business must survive first, so I am not quite sure how often I will be able to post here until I have a better idea of where my “in-real-life” is all going.
And I thought you, my unbelievably supportive, amazing, dedicated readers deserved to know why I’ve been so absent here recently.
I’ve always been up front and honest as I’ve navigated through the world of blogging, but for the first time in nearly three years, my “in real life” has taken over in a way it never has before.
I can only do so much and right now, my family is and always will be number one.
So until I feel more settled about our future, where this is all headed and where we will land, I am treading slowly here and will publish when I can.
And I sure hope you’ll still be here.
Who knows? This may make for some great blog fodder – but until then, please say some prayers for us that we will find our way.
Because right now, we are still in mid-flight hoping this will all work out – for the better.
Sounds like a lot on your plate, Heather. I hope that you find some answers and get settled into your new normal very soon.
Many prayers coming your way. I truly believe that God always makes the path obvious…but sometimes you have to look for the signs in the most unexpected of places. We were at a point of trememdous change last August, when we decided to spontaneously move – in a matter of 8 days – and while it was incredibly scary, it truly has worked out for the best. I am hoping the same for you
Thinking about you. My family has been in a time of major transition for the last few months and it has been difficult and stressful, and not something I wanted to speak about. So I totally relate, and look forward to reading whenever you are able to write here. xox
Sending lots of hugs and encouragement your way, Heather. I’ll keep you and your beautiful family in my thoughts and prayers. You know where to reach me if you need a shoulder. xx
Thinking of you and hoping it all falls into place smoothly and without stress (or with as little as possible!). xox
Oh Heather. I’m sorry you’re going through so much. One step at a time, one glass of wine at a time. Hang in there lady.
I hope that everything works out for you. Sending positive thoughts to you and your family. As for your readers, we’ll be here when you are ready. Take care!!
I hope everything is okay, Heather. (((hugs)))
Hang in there, Heather. This too shall pass. Hugs and prayers.
I can relate to big changes and feeling turned upside down. I hope it all works out and you come out right side up!
Hang in there! I hope everything works out for the best for you and your family. We’ve been in a season of transition too and it can be really hard to see which path is the right one to take.
I hope that whatever is going on it all works out in a way that is comforting to you. Hang in there….and know that the online world will always be around whenever the in real life world slows down.
I know that you will find your way, even if it takes some time. The path isn’t always easy, hoping the best for you. Or. The Better
I hope that everything works out the way you and your family wants it to. And know that we will always be here to support you!
Hang in there, mama!
(And yes, take care of you and your’s first, and always.)
xo
Hi! Wow, we are suddenly going through some life altering changes, as well. Your post encouraged me (does that sound strange?) It’s just helps to know we are not alone, y’know. Hoping you find the direction and answers you are looking for (me too :))
I also believe God has a plan for our lives. The path may not always make sense to us, but it is always for the better. I have this passage framed on my dresser, “‘I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good, and not for evil. To give you a future and a hope.'”
God bless your family as you prepare for whatever His plan is for you!
Hope you find the right path for your family. You’ll be in my thoughts!
Thinking of you! Take care of yourself and your family, they do come first. Sending lots of positive thoughts your way.
Heather… You’re most certainly in my thoughts and prayers. I hope everything works out for you, my friend. And we’ll always be here. xoxo
Right there with you. My life is being turned upside down right now and it’s tough. It is hard to know where God is leading us. Praying for your family!
all the best to you and your family. take all the time you need.
Sometimes you do just have to take a step back from everything. You have to do what is best for you and your family. We will always be here for you. Good luck with everything that you are going through.
This sounds incredibly stressful. Sending all good wishes your way — and of course we’ll all still be here when you sort everything out. Hang in there.
Hope it all works out for you and your family. Fingers crossed.
Sending love to you & best wishes & lots of hugs.
Much love, Heather. My family and I are praying for you and yours.
Love and prayers, Heather, for you and your family, most of all, most importantly, for you all. Thinking of you and trusting in the ‘man upstairs’ indeed, it is and we’re all in His hands. BIG transatlantic hugs coming at you! XXXOOO
Heather…hugs to you my friend. I wish you strength and send you love xoxo
Thinking of you and your family! We’ve also been going through some big decisions and life changes here so I can sympathize. Hope it all works out!
OH Heather, Im sorry you are going through a difficult time. Sometimes change is good. I am a big believer that things happen for a reason, even when we don’t understand it at first. ((HUGS)) Sending you so much support, strength, and positive thoughts your way.
