Everyone’s leaving my job but me. I don’t want to be the last one here…i guess, unless that’s God’s plan for me. It is seeming more and more impossible to meet our job’s outcomes with the lack of initiative, creativity, and freedom we have to work with to make things happen. I know God knows exactly what I need to get by, and I want to be still and quiet enough to hear his will for my life. I pray for wisdom to decide to stay at my job or to wait out my time, for peace instead of an anxious and worrisome mind on what is to happen (work & baby-wise), and for the will and strength to keep on being the mother and wife (and daughter) I need to be for my family. Whatever goes down…I hope God is glorified and manifested in my life to be a testimony for others to see.

Today was a good-kinda-busy day…if that makes any sense.

I kicked it with the boys for a bit this morning before I left to attend my youth ministry meeting…which was very much so productive!! (yea =D) We really want this Youth Conference to be mind and spirit changing as well as fun and enjoyable…I firmly believe this is possible for us this year.

Immediately after the meeting I left to see my granny in the nursing home…they called in the family to do a “Blessing of the Sick” for her, since these are ”supposedly” her final days (you never what God has in store).

I took it surprisingly very well (whew!)…It was only GOD that got me through it…I was able to be stronger for others that were there.

And Granny looked good!…she was very responsive and wrinkle-free =)…without the use of botox or plastic surgery, Ms. Heidi Montag…

My parents and I then followed up with lunch after the Blessing…and it was NICE and sweet…and much needed to relfect and relax a bit without any loud and crazy kids or interruptions.

I praise God for my miracle: my “Good-Kinda-Busy Day”.

Sooo…

I’m in a rut.  I’ve been out of school (graduated, yes) for 4 years, married almost 8 years now, 2 kids, and still no job.  I was hired by Pepperdine University, after I graduated, in Dec. 2006 but didn’t take it…long story.

The new story is my youngest son is almost 2 yrs old, love him to death, but he’s wrecking my nerves to death as well…and I’m don’t want my long haul of busting my little cutie patootie on a degree to go to waste.

I have so many ideas, hopes and dreams (school/student activities counselor, public relations specialist, journalist, publicity, wanting my own urban christian music radio show/magazine, tv/film production, event planning…yeah, the most!) that I’m not pursuing…I need to though…The problem is that part of me is scared because I know these professtions will require a lot of my time which will be taken away from my family, kids, and ministry work.

I’ve grown to like the time I have to volunteer at my son’s school or to work on youth ministry stuff, spending time with my youngest son, but at the same time, I feel like I’m not being productive - doing nothing with my life.

So, I’m asking God, what is your will for my life??  What is my role in my family to be (a stay @ home mom or an equal financial helper to my husband and to have a career of my own??) I need an answer because I don’t know what to do, i don;t know what is right/best for me and I don’t want to make a bad decision…

Help me Daddy.
