It's Weird?

He says it's weird that I'm insisting that one of our cars is in my name. It wasn't weird 10 years ago when we bought a car specifically for me. He doesn't think its weird that that he has all the vehicles only in his name. We've been shuffling cars for my last couple of vehicles, so I've ended up with a car in his name only. This last move a few weeks ago brought that fact to my attention (I got the car he had been driving when he bought a truck).

I explained to him that I am concerned about his prediction that the biblical prophecy to "flee to the hills" will happen in the next year. He feels God has told him to get ready, but he has no sense of when or where. So he sold his beloved motorcycle and bought a truck. He's working on outfitting it and then will stockpile it.

I am a strong believer in the Bible. God is gracious when He warns us about coming events. But I've told hubby that I don't have any sense that we need to prepare for catastrophe or be ready to flee. But if he thinks God tells him to take off at some point, I will carefully consider whether or not run with him.

It's in part because of his insistence that he will leave sometime in the next year that I feel I need to prepare for the possibility that I won't go with him. That and I'm considering leaving after granddaughter goes back with mom. But I really don't want to do that. I'm praying for a miracle.

But having to insist, after asking several times, topped off with the muttered comment "it's weird" - these are not the makings of a miracle yet.

I know cognitively my request is not weird. It's a normal reaction that most humans would have regardless of gender. He has a dangerous job. My friend that was recently widowed talks about how hard it is to get everything transferred into her name, even with a death certificate.

So the challenge is to do what I think is right - hold steady - regardless of mutterings. I am grateful the pressure is not more intense. Steady goes it...
