Big News!

All I have to say is, Ahhhhhhhhhhh! God you are so in control!
Okay, I feel better now. We are truly truly needing lots of prayers right now.
My husband, Patrick, had a job interview last Wednesday in Fort Wayne. It went very well. He was told that he will be getting a call back after the interviewer gets back from his vacation. So Patrick should be getting a call back sometime next week.
We have been praying for clearness in what we should be doing, and God could not have been any more clear with what He is telling Patrick.
Patrick got a call from his boss yesterday, from his current job, his boss told him that they are closing the plant in August,that Patrick is currently in charge of. Wow, talk about clarity. The timing of all of this is amazing.
Patrick and I needs lost of prayer. Especially me. I can see that if this other job was in God's will that God has made it clear. But Patrick has not been offered the job yet. And Patrick's current job is going to not exist any more. How more clear could God's will be, and why am I struggling. I know what God's word says and I believe that it is true.
God does not always show us His will until we see it after everything is done. At least thus far in Patrick and I's life. The one time He is being clear with the direction for us to take, and I am doubting if Patrick will get this job. I am such a stink. How dare I doubt. God will take care of us. He always has, in all sorts of different ways. There is so much for us to be thankful for.
Please pray for the spirit to take me over, for I am feeling rotten. I need Him so much. I want so much to be as trusting as my husband is, Patrick is just excited about God being so clear in His plan for us. I need to be strong, but not strong in myself, but strong in Christ Jesus.
Dear God, my heavenly Father, I need you so much. Please help me to be what you need me to be. I know your word is true and I believe, even the things I do not understand. I need you to keep me strong and encouraged, so I may be the wife and mother you have called me to be. Help me to do the things that must be done and prevent me from doing the things that may cause harm to my family. Help me to be diligent in your will in what you will for me to do. In the daily tasks for my family and to be an encouragement to all who are around me. I love you Lord and praise you for what you have done and plan to do in our lives. Thank you for providing all that you do. Keep my family strong in you , in Jesus Christ's name I pray, Amen.
