There are some changes happening in my family. Mainly due to some spiritual fighting my husband is doing. That’s not really my story to tell. But it is hard for me to watch him struggle. Although I believe the changes in store for him will make him a better man, husband, and father.
Plus, we watched Fireproof
Plus, he’s struggling at work. Basically, they changed the structure, and he’s expected to do two full time jobs – without overtime. It’s not working. We’ve talked both about how he can present the problem to his management, and also how to manage the jobs in the meantime (I administer, it’s what I do – so I’m able to help him structure things.) But he was thisclose to quitting. Which, of course, sent me into panic mode, because the business is not close to being self sufficient yet – not to mention health insurance, this economy for finding another job, etc.
So basically, he’s introducing changes all around. Refining ones. Ones that in the long run would be wonderful, and great, and fulfilling.
But oh so painful and uncomfortable to get through to the other side on.
So I’m struggling. With my own fears and anxieties. With how to help and support him.
It’s certainly a long road, isn’t it?
(I just lost a really long comment. Grrr.)
phil. 4:13, I think…with Christ all things are possible. Jesus messes us up sometimes-It’s hard going through but there is such reward on the other side. HD has started reading his bible every day-usually while waiting on coffee to brew-and it has been so good for him. And he’s not even a reader!
I’d love to hear your take on the love dare-I’m thinking of it myself…
DH and I both loved that movie – in fact, we just rented it (originally saw it in the theater). It’s powerful and reminds you just how much we need Jesus in our daily lives to run things. I’m sorry you guys are struggling, but glad you are obviously working through it in the right way!
I’ll be praying …
