The uncertainty of life...

The uncertainty of life... Well 2020 has certainly been a confusing year for many. My life definitely is not where I thought it would be right now as I live thousands of miles and countries away from my husband. The past 4 years have definitely not been what I expected, but know that everything works out in the Lord's timing and unfortunately his timing and mine definitely have never lined up. March of 2020 became an extremely hard month for me, we were denied yet again on César's visa and now have to start the process all over and put more money into the process. After the denial I was looking forward to spending time with him in Ecuador but a few days before my flight I ended up having to cancel my flights as Ecuador suspended all travel in and out of the country. That was a huge blow my country won't let him in and his country won't let me in. Luckily for me it's only temporary until they get a handle on the Covid-19 pandemic. I even tried booking an earlier flight but was unable to find one, looking back now I am grateful I didn't go as travel is barely opening back up June 1st. I've tried to keep myself busy with work and craft projects to keep my mind from worrying about the things I cannot change or control and at this point that is a lot that we are so uncertain of. All of our summer plans have been postponed due to the fact no one knows what may be or happen as Covid-19 is so unknown and the spread of illness throughout the country. We started with Covid, then the earthquake, and now riots in the street. This definitely is a scary world we now live in and is this what the new norm is going to be? Part of me is glad I haven't started a family yet as these are scary and uncertain times but the other part of me wonders if I will get the opportunity to have a family as the second coming may be closer then we know. I am trying to stay positive each and every day and try to remember the Lord is on our side and he knows the greater picture of all things. Until next time, signing out. Megan
