Pondering the complexities of life.

My Soldier

Talked with my son tonight and he thinks that his transfer to Germany is probably a stepping stone to Iraq. He won't know for absolute certain until he arrives in Germany, but I could tell he was concerned. He tried to reassure me, but that just made me more frightened. He's been in the army for almost four years now, always stationed state-side. I suppose I had come to believe his good luck would hold.

With everything else going on right now, this uncertain news is hitting me much harder than it might if my emotions were not already so fragile.

Just how much does God believe I can handle???
