Praying for Paul

Just a reminder for all of you who have been praying to keep on praying. Paul still has no orders. The answers to why he is still waiting is unclear. Only God knows why. Paul does plan on calling some people tomorrow to see if any answers can be found. Please pray for him tonight and tomorrow.

Poof!

After US History class this morning I made my way to Rock Valley College's atrium. I marched myself over to a table and set up camp. I moved a table across next to a wall (making all kinds of noise). I then proceeded to plug in my laptop and poor out my books on the table. For the next three hours I read material and started my History research paper. It was nearing 2pm and it was time for my next class. After class I went to a hall area and asked some people sitting there about double spacing on my laptop. The person next to me had the same laptop and tried to help me but no success. Someone else tried to find it and no success. Some of you who are reading this are thinking, "Duh Barb! Go to format and click on paragraph and then go to line spacing!" Nope. It doesn't exist. After playing around with it myself, I just happened to come across something that leads you to double spacing (or I should say providently). After all of that I went to open my paper and it was NO WHERE to be found. I looked and looked and the same group of people came back to my computer and tried to look for it. Sighs... nothing. I'm sitting on my bed about to start my paper over again. The Lord is teaching me something. Patience and not to become angry. Accepting it and just moving on. Give glory back to Christ. Even in losing a paper and having to start over agian.

Praying for Paul

Today is a start of a new week. Paul was told last week to call again this week to see if orders came in. He called everyday last week. Each day he was given the same answer. Nothing, call again tomorrow. Please pray for Paul this week as he starts yet another week of phone calls. Pray that he doesn't grow restless but remains in Faith and waits patiently. As well as the others who are waiting for an answer.

Praying for Paul

Nothing much has changed concerning Paul. Every time I talk to him there is a new date of when he should find out when and where he is leaving. I think you are all starting to understand what I mean when I say, things are on the army's time. Just keep praying. Pray that we will find out this week where Paul is going for sure. Pray that Paul could get Oklahoma. Pray that we accept God's will no matter what happens in the end. Thanks for keeping Paul in your prayers.

Wedding Dress: Second Attempt

Well, some things have changed since my last post of the "Wedding Dress". Yes, I found a dress but as the days went by I realized that there were some things about the previous dress I didn't like. I found a great price for a dress that other issues slipped my mind. Nicely enough, my father pointed those out for me (thanks dad!) But the Lord was gracious again and provided something better. It was still at a great price and this time I felt more like a bride while standing in the mirror.
