Waiting... Again

I came into this semester with a set of expectations. God has taken each and every one of those expectations and said "no."  A lot of this has revolved around work situations - I was expecting to continue the job I had this summer through the semester, yet on Friday the job ended. Magnus and I had some joint expectations which God has also said "no" to and I have come to realize that I am at a point of waiting. Again. Asking God for provision, for answers, and seeking his direction and guidance.
I really don't like this whole waiting/dependence thing. God, in the midst of all the circumstances that make me want to scream (hello, add a flat tire to my day), calls me to trust in and rely on him. Let me be frank: I don't like this. Yet, God wants me, he wants all of me, and he wants to content me in himself. He wants to make me happy... joyful really (Gal 5:22-23)
He doesn't want me looking towards circumstances to make me happy. He doesn't want me relying on outward jobs or other success to feel secure. He wants me looking to and relying on him. He wants my delight, joy, security and acceptance to be rooted and grounded in him. Period.
I am wading into this waiting period and slowly releasing to God my expectations. I know that when they're his, he will grow me and deepen me in my experience in and delight of him. This is far better then simply getting what I want... but that doesn't make it easier.
For some reason, I thought when I met my husband (Magnus) that an aspect of this waiting process would get easier. It's amazing to see how my heart is so grounded in circumstances and not in God. But as God continually reminds me - he is good, loving, kind, and he wants all of me.
"Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21
