Praise and prayer
Posted on Friday, February 9, 2007 at 01:55 - Post Comment
It seems so hard to hear God's voice these days. My whole world was tossed upside down, by having to go stop homeschooling, go back to work and put my baby in day care. Well praise the Lord after many people prayed about the situation it seems I do NOT have to go back to work. I called another lady from the state and it seems that the info I got was incorrect. I can pay $200 renew my certification for another 8 years under the provisional certification. I was so overjoyed that I began to cry on the phone and I asked about three times..."Are you sure I won't lose my certification?" It is a praise as the Lord and I struggled with this. I did NOT want to go back to work full time but I told him I would do it if that's what he wanted. I believe he is opening the door for me to not have to work full time, however there is a problem. We are strapped financially and my DH was looking forward to some financial relief by me working full time. I told him I would substitute on his days off and could make like $120 dollars a week. He seems to think that that is not enough to sustain us. So now I struggle with what to do. Do I go to work to ease my hubby's stress of the finances, but cause more stress on myself and my family because I am unable to be in the home or do I stay home and do what ever I can to make a buck here and there when I can. Lord please speak to us!!!!
Work!

Hi, Connie, that's great about your certificate.... I would think easing into part time/sub work would be the best solution, if you & Eric can agree to something like that. There are so many days I wish I did't have to work at all, and after you get used to the income it seems impossible to stop working or decrease hours/money, etc. You're stuck between a rock and... you know, a hard place, because you want to please God, you want to serve/help your husband. What to do? Is there anything you could cut to make up for the income you need as well? You are pretty frugal already, LOL! Praying for you - Love, Chris
