Possible Changes

Today Ben flew out to Missouri. The reason: a job interview. Ben applied for a job with Union Pacific Railroad last month, and it's come to the point where he was invited to a hiring session. All in all, if he gets accepted for a job, this will change our family forever. And I'm thinking mostly positively.
It would mean moving from Arizona to Missouri... where both Ben and I have lived our entire lives. It would mean leaving both of our families (and essentially taking the grandkids away from their grandparents). It would mean a LOT of changes I can't even fathom or comprehend right now... But it would also mean gaining independence. And having job security. And having a definite future with a career (unlike the unknown future Ben has with his job now).

So it is exciting and terrifying at the same time. We are looking to God to lead and direct us in this situation. And though we will probably be disappointed if it doesn't work out, we know that He is in control and His will is supreme.

Anyways, the interview is set for tomorrow. Tomorrow night Ben will be home and I will know more from there.
