Started getting worried this week as my husband is coming to the end of his job that he's on now and there isn't another one on the horizon. Construction is so slow right now! Talk about me going back to work has been more common and more real in the last week. I feel like I've been really starting to worry about it, worrying about what kind of job I can get, how will I handle being away from the kids all day, will I even be able to make enough to contribute to our family's income like my husband does, etc. On a positive note, I would probably have less laundry to do because Brian would have to take over house stuff and kid duty *LOL*
I went to college because I felt like it was the direction that God wanted me to go. Maybe this is why I got my bachelor's degree. My question now is what the heck I do with it. I had Melanie a few weeks after graduating and don't have a ton of experience in anything but kids! So here I sit, an educated momma wondering what I am going to do if I have to go back to the 40 hour work week!
But this week I have totally felt God reminding me that He is in control! He has plans to prosper our family and not harm (Jeremiah 29)! He doesn't want me to be anxious because He has me just where He wants me! If the plan is for me to go to work while Brian is out of work then I truly believe that God will bring the right job around. I just need to stop worrying and PRAY MORE!!

Good morning momma!! Reading your blog felt like reading my own journal! Except I don't have a degree.....Its hard not to worry..That seems to come natural.The more I learn to surrender my "rightful" worry the more God fills my heart with hope...Now, that is not natural for me..With hope comes quiet peace. that "supernatural" peace given only by God...Read John 14 today..It will rock you....
Love ya Heather
Sounds like we're all in the same boat. I'll be praying for you guys. We keep having this same discussion. It's rough. Just take one day at a time.
Girl! I am a terrible best friend that I didn't know this was going on again. :( You know I'm searching for employment too. Why can't we figure out a way to make a ton of money together??
