So it's summer and it's very nice to not have to worry about grades, lesson plans, students in detention, etc, etc. Very nice. BUT (there is always a "but" in my world)I am now facing the dilemma of what to do job wise. As a single mom I have always worked during the summer. The extra income allows us to catch up on some bills and places us in a better position financially for the onset of the school year. My summer class at Borger High didn't make so I was disappointed. Now, I have to think about 3 options:
1. work at JcPenney where they only need me 2 days a week
2. work as a substitute teacher for summer school (days are sporadic and probably few)
3. work at Toot-n-Totum where they need someone from 2pm - 10pm every day.
Please pray with me regarding this. I want to do the right thing financially and for myself and for my family. I also am wondering if a combination of #1 and #2 would be enough? I keep hearing God tell me in the background (behind the worry and the stress that are clamoring for my attention), "Be at peace. I will be with you." What a loving God we have don't we? He understands our turmoil and anxiousness. I am so glad for that because I struggle with these emotions so very much...in so many areas of my life.
So I am listening to Jeremy Camp and eating fish sticks. The words of the song are nourishment to my soul.
Trust In You
Artist(Band):Jeremy Camp
When I can't see You I know You're there
When I can't feel You I will not fear
I will trust in You and I will not be afraid.
When the battle is close at hand
Though You're with me and help me stand
I will trust in You and I will not be afraid.
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will trust in you
I will trust in you
I will trust in you
When the darkness is close at hand
And I‘m running against the wind
I will trust in you and I will not be afraid.
When I'm standing upon that shore
All the battles I've gone before
I will trust in you, and I will not be afraid.
'Cuz I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will trust in you
I will trust in you

I'm praying!! And I'm asking God for divine connections and divine appointments!
Liz~ I am praying that God leads you exactly where he wants you to be and you recognize it! I am also praying that you just continue to trust God to direct your path sister!
Smooches and Blessings
Praying, too!! I know God will show you a definite answer...but sometimes it is delayed (for a reason of course...Bro Steve's sermon last night) so you might take the wrong job and then hear later...just throwing that out there ;) But in the end, it will all work out! Maybe it's none of these three!
