The weight of the world seems to be on my shoulders and yet, I couldn't imagine being a government official right now. Whew! I won't even go there.
My mistaken assumption of the "golden years" is the basis for this stress, I'm sure. My imagination must have envisioned an easier life as I aged. Why, I'm not sure but maybe it got me through the family challenges, job changes and new homes that came with each military move.
So to me, "retiring" from the military was the golden egg. Moving would be our choice and enjoying the empty-nest years would be "perfect".
How unrealistic that proved to be! It is just different challenges through different seasons of life. Clinging to the fundamentals is the only answer to bring peace back into my life, whatever the season. The God that has brought me through thus far won't leave me now and I'll forever stand on His Word.
