Trust~

Patience is more than endurance. A saint's life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, and He stretches and strains, and every now and again the saint says--'I cannot stand anymore.' God does not heed, He goes on stretching till His purpose is in sight, then He lets fly. Trust yourself in God's hands. Maintain your relationship to Jesus Christ by the patience of faith. 'Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him." Oswald Chambers

Balancing~

Balancing~ it is a balancing act I have been doing these past couple of weeks...it had been twenty years since I worked outside the home.  When we had our business I worked my own hours at my own pace~ those days are long gone...and so now it begins again...except this time we are a family of five with three teenagers ....need I say more?! ha ha  So I am once again getting into a rhythm and learning all over again how to balance life with work.  It hasn't been easy but the kids are trying to be as helpful as three teens can~  I am exhausted by the end of the day...feet absolutely killing me.. but!  feels so good to know both Tom and I are bringing home a paycheck...God's provision is amazing.  I like my job talking and helping people all day...I am a people person..and I am doing very well at sales.  So thank you Lord for placing me right where you have at this time in my life~  The Lord knows just what we need and is always there to provide.
