Courage 2

When my husband called tonight, I found the courage again to be open. I simply said that when I had expressed my burden to him before and made a simple request that the only thing I needed to hear him say was "I will" yet he chose defensiveness. This revelation was answered with silence. So what do I do now? I continue to pray and wait. Some of the past deployments were "easy" (for those who have been there, you understand) this one is not. My heart is uneasy and that's the only way I know to describe it.
