The Leap

"The Leap" is the article God led me to read in "Our Daily Bread" today. Mainly to explain why He allowed me & hubby to be in our set-up right now.

A while back I was emotional. I couldn't stop tears from flowing down my cheeks. Perhaps, it was because subconciously I was longing for my hubby.( Looks like the "wife" segment of my brain is starting to feel uncomfortable with our current setup. Hehehe!)

For about a month now, hubby & I get to be with each other only for two days in a week. He decided to stay in Bulacan full-time so he can focus on the resto business he put up there together with a friend. Since we started with our relationship, he's never been away this long. So, I'm painfully adjusting.

While I was pondering on our current setup, I somehow asked God why He led hubby in this kind of undertaking - entirely different from his background, which is IT. I also asked why He pointed a place for the business that's somewhat remote and far from our residence. I got a bit hurt as well when I saw his temporary abode, the small sleeping quarter in the resto. It's secured, but cramped with supplies & stuff. Not a comfy place to rest after a long day.

Anyhow, good thing God clarified. I was led to read Genesis 12: 1-4. These verses talked about how God called Abram to leave his country, his people and father's household and go to the land that He will show him.

This leap in our setup is indeed odd & challenging. But as He clarified using the verses I just read, I should cling on, trust and take a leap of faith like what Abram did!
