Lee has a driving test at a small trucking company today. He already took the drug test and has spent quite a bit of time talking with the owner. He says that Lee will probably start team driving on Tuesday morning. He said to bring the application in today–you know the part where you check [...]
Today I feel like I’m fighting a heavy spirit. I’m asking the Lord to help me trust about the job/ money situation. That seems to be an hourly battle. I feel like I’m carrying burdens about a lot of things and I don’t know why today is harder than any other day. My heavy spirit [...]
When my family was all here, (boo hoo by the way! I miss them all.) we were discussing our jobs. I think my dear brother was emphasizing his job as the most important. He does have a great job and takes providing for his wife quite seriously! He outlined what each of us did and [...]
In my post about truck driving school, Christy left a comment saying they’ve been praying for provision for school and wondered if she should still pray. WELL! Today, Lee went to pay the 1st payment and they said they were going to give him a grant. The grant covered everything but books! All of his [...]
Two weeks ago, Lee lost his job due to lack of work. They said, “We’ll call you back in a few weeks if we have more work.” We haven’t heard a word yet. Lee doesn’t qualify for unemployment, because he hadn’t earned enough in previous quarters. So many times, over the past days, I’ve prayed, [...]
I am thankful for so many things. I try to practice gratitude on a daily basis. Counting our blessings and thanking God for all things big or “small” keeps our minds focused on Him rather than our circumstances. Believe me–watching our circumstances is not a good thing. One thing for which I’m incredibly grateful for [...]
We had some more blessings that I wanted to share before Monday! 1. I got a piano student out of the blue. She started yesterday. I may have a couple more starting soon too. 2. The plant manager at Lee’s job handed him his paycheck yesterday and said, “You’re doing a great job. We’re giving [...]
Yesterday was Lee’s first day at his “official” job–welding. I prayed that his boss would be nice and that his co-workers would be easy to get along with. Also that Lee would be able to keep up and get adjusted easily. When I spoke with him yesterday, he said the boss really liked him and [...]
God’s provision has been so amazing to us for all this time. I am so thankful for each and every person who ever prayed, gave, or shared in any way. I know that the only reason we’ve made it through this is because of God’s wonderful love and provision. As you know I sell on [...]
Any blessing this week? Each of us receives blessings daily if only we look for them and acknowledge God as the giver. Health, ability to move, family, friends, pretty things to enjoy,…the list goes on. Even in very difficult situations, we can find something to thank God for. Doing so changes our hearts and minds [...]
