Only God…

Only God could orchestrate the happenings around here! Not only did He provide jobs for both of us, He had such a God sized plan behind it all! The family whose daughter I am keeping found me when I wasn’t even looking for a job actively. I had talked to several families about child care needs, but most had 3 children and/or needed evening and weekend help. These didn’t seem like match for our family routine, homeschool demands, or church planting residency requirements. This family came into the picture and we sat down to talk with them about specific needs and it was all such a great match for both of us. Shortly after we agreed that care would begin in January, Eric was hired by a local school district as a bus driver. He had applied for the same position in multiple districts. It turned out God, in His infinite wisdom, had orchestrated this. The mom of the child staying here in the daytime teaches in the same district Eric will drive for, making all of our off days the same! This will allow for trips to Lowry and ministry as a family, here and there, and only God can make that happen!! Not fate nor coincidence!
In addition, no sweeter or smarter 2 year old exists than the one we are blessed to be enjoying our days with. She is such a perfect addition to our days!! She also naps each afternoon, allowing perfect time for teaching new skills in school. All three kids play very well together and seem to love each other already! Eric passed two written tests yesterday and got his Colorado CDL, with school bus and air brake endorsements! Praise God for these jobs that help provide for our needs and still leave us personal growth, family growth, and community ministry time! “He has done great things, bless His Holy name!”

    I have enjoyed seeing God work in your lives. Both jobs are meeting your needs as you reach out to the community. This is a great way to begin a new year. Looking forward to 2013 as God continues to lead you and bless you in your search for His will.
