I am free~

Life has been moving at a frantic pace as of late~ the days just seem to blend together.  I have working a great deal....six days a week...But! so thankful as Tom is still looking for work.  God is good giving me the strength I need each day.  So looking forward to Sunday~the day of rest.  Tom is excited; he has a job interview on Monday!   The job is in his field and last year this company had offered him a position but it was as a contractor..now the terms of employment have changed and they are offering a base and commissions as well as expense allowance..so we will see what transpires.  It is in Gods hands!   God continues to be faithful to our family~ and I continue to pray for direction and guidance in our lives.  There are days when I wonder  when the  Lord will deliver us from this season in our lives but on those days I just really try to remember that I have to trust~ its not easy but I was reminded this morning during my quiet time that we are no meant for this world...it is not our home.  A thought I have to tell you I find comforting.  I am trying to relax in my Father's arms~ reminding myself I am not in control and you know what I am learning; I don't have to be! and this is a really freeing realization.

Caught the cold~

Well~it was just a matter of time until I caught Tom's and Austie's cold...so nice of them to share. :)  So it was quite the day at work because I had run out of cold medicine and took an allergy pill instead...I felt like I was sleepwalking all day but I got through even with a meeting tonight.  The job continues to go well and everyone is very nice but I do indeed need to work full-time...I just keep praying and waiting on the Lord as I know His timing is not mine.  Tomorrow morning I have a phone interview for a personal banking position and it is right around the corner from the house~so we will see what happens.  I spent the weekend revamping my resume and it may just pay off.  So I have put it in the Lord's hands because I have learned it has to be His will.  I just continue to apply and network~something is bound to happen.  This past weekend was wonderful at church as we had Hillsong with Darlene leading worship all weekend.  It was really a beautiful time. The girls and I were so blessed and refreshed.  I am looking into going back to school...it is both exciting and terrifying all at  once.  The kids are very supportive. They think its great that not only are they studying but mom and dad are joining them.  I have been thinking of dad a great deal lately~wondering what his advice to us would be....than I remind myself that I do indeed know what he would say and it is just missing his voice his presence in our lives.  So many emotions...so many changes but what gets me through is staying in prayer and the word; it's not easy and somedays are harder than others but I get up each morning and start my day and put Him in charge....He has not let me down yet~daily..moment by moment...He gives me the strength needed.
