It is funny how different people tick. I am a person that likes change, but I don't often go out and seek it. God has been very clear about my life and what types of careers I am to have. He has through His clear actions in life, made sure that I know exactly where my priorities of God, then Family...then my job are.
With that said, it is my husband that has the true career and my career is taking care of him and rising our family. With homeschooling our kids being the priority at home. I have had several jobs over the last 15 years, but I haven't had a career and honestly, I am good with that!
The funny thing is that although I have never had a career, I have always enjoyed the jobs that God has placed in my path and I am always ready to move when He needs me to. But I only move when things get hurtful. God knows me well! He knows that my heart is very tender and I trust easily and hurt badly.
That is exactly the situation that I am in now. I am hurting...just hurt! My dreams of the future with my current job are very quickly crashing down around me. Promises of someone that I thought to be a true mentor (and mentoring to her at the same time) is no longer. The future of making real change in this work to help kids...isn't going to be. Being a important part of the lives of teens and molding them into what God intends for them to be, not going to happen like we thought it would.
But...a whole new horizon is in my sights! God always has plans to prosper us and never to harm us! Although the pain is real...it isn't harmful because my Father promised me it wouldn't be!
My business is blooming into a booming future for me and my family. God knows the deepest desires of our hearts and my truly has always been being home with my girls. My 18 year old daughter is now working full-time and is in an apprenticeship programs learning to do hair. Her life is full and she is growing up fast, but still loves it that I am home when she gets home.
So...hurt can be good if you know where to put it and in my life it is a sign that God is about to start performing miracles in my life!
