Alot has changed in 6 weeks...

Alot has changed in six weeks and since my last post. I could be disappointed, and probably should be, yet I am not. 
I believe in a Higher Power who knows what's best for me, my family and our situation, even when I might think I do, but probably don't. I believe the Higher Power hears me when I pray and lately, I have been praying a lot. 
Moving out to the cabin is a dream that I've held on to for a long time. Probably longer than we've had the cabin or the land. However, within the past two weeks, I've had answers to prayers, even confirmation to those answered prayers, and I now realize that living out here full time at this moment is not what is best for us. And, I have peace within my spirit and I am okay with this. 
Maybe some day in the future this will be a reality. Maybe the timing will be within God's will in the future, but I have no doubts that right now is simply not the time or within God's will for us.

I went out this morning and found that right after I left the last time, someone came into the cabin yard and moved, broke and/or destroyed most of our solar lights and their solar chargers. Nothing else was destroyed or manipulated in any way that was evident. I spoke to a Border Patrol official and he told me that illegals have been known to do this, probably because they want total darkness.
Whatever the reason, whoever the perpetrator might have been, I had a moment where I said quietly, "Thank you, God for speaking to me!"
You see, the last time I was out there I was suddenly overcome with an intense feeling of foreboding and a voice in my head was shouting, "YOU DON'T NEED TO BE HERE! YOU NEED TO BE THERE! (As in the home in town.)" I tried to make sense of the feeling and quieten the voice, but both only became stronger and louder. I decided to listen and 15 minutes later, I was on my way back to town and the feeling did not leave and the voice did not hush until I pulled into my drive. Then I felt such incredible peace and only then did I feel SAFE!
Finding the things I did this morning gave me a cold chill. What if I had stayed and ignored those feelings and that voice the last time I was there? I get a morbid feeling that had I stayed I might not be writing this today.

There are many people who believe that the illegal aliens are only coming to the United States to better their lives and that they are harmless. They feel that Border Patrol and residents along the border are being 'mean' to these poor people and so on and so forth. And while I am sure that there are many illegals who are indeed harmless and who are only wanting a better life for themselves and their families, I also know that not all are harmless, and anyone who believes otherwise needs their heads examined. The thing is, not everyone crossing the border illegal is Mexican, and that is where the real problem lies! 
The point is, how can anyone tell me that I should trust people who are most definitely criminals, even if they are just here to find work? If they were honest, wouldn't they go through the proper channels in obtaining a Visa or Green Card, instead of paying 'coyotes' to bring them across or 'signing up' to be a drug 'mule' in order to gain 'safe' passage from 'coyotes' and drug cartels???
