Change...how to accept and be ready for it...

Change is something that can be so hard to deal with even if you have been praying for it and ready for it for a long time.

Change #1...For over 4 years we have been praying for Jeremy to have an opportunity to go out and start his own business. Well the time is approaching were it will be happening in just a few short months. They have already started building it and it should be ready this summer. We are so excited but a little nervous.
Change #2... we have been trying to sell our house for the past year or so and it is getting closer to selling. We have had some really interested people come and hopefully we will hear soon about if they want it or not. I am super excited about this as well but once again it is change. What house do we get next? What if we can't afford it? What if we need to move to Clarksville? What if Jeremy's business doesn't do well?
Change #3...As you all know we have been trying to have another child for over 4 years now and it is getting closer until we will get our referral for our precious Lennon. This has to be the best change in the world. I can't wait to be a mother to another little one. But of course the nerves get to going again. What if I don't remember how to do it all again? What if she doesn't like me? What if? What if? What if?

Well after all this---What if? I had had enough and decided...OK...Rhea Anne... Duh... Give it God... He has been saying this to me for forever. I bet he is so tired of watching me struggle with this for so long. I give it to him and then pick it back up. I know he is our provider, savior, father, and keeper. So I decided to write him a little letter.

Dear God,
I owe everything to you and everything to you I give. I love you Lord and I am so sorry for worrying about all the change instead of giving it you in the first place. I know you hold my family in your hands and I pray you will protect us spiritually, financially, and physically. I pray that all we do is in your will and your will alone. I am not going to worry or make things happen my way anymore. I give you my all. Thank you for what you have giving my family and what you have in store for us in the future. I give you my worry, my struggles, our change, my everything. Do with us what you will for your plan is Great and our plans are only Good. I can't wait to sit back and watch YOUR plan unfold before my eyes.

Your loving daughter,
Rhea Anne

Just had to get it out... thanks for listening to me...many blessing to you and your family,

Love,Rhea Anne
