I cant type but just a minute but I need some prayer. I have been asked by dh to sell my business and help in our new endevor with 100% of my time and energy (plus he is tired of the chaos in our home) Please be praying God will show me what to do and make it soon. Thanks.
Father, we ask you to make yourself very clear to Cassandra right now. You said in your Word that we would hear your voice saying, 'this is the way, walk ye in it". I pray that she would hear that voice right now...strong and clear. May she and her dh both be completely led of you. Give them Your wisdom and a double portion of the anointing of Your spirit. I thank you for leading them to this new church. I thank you that they are going to grow and flourish beyond measure. I thank you that many souls will be saved and Your kingdom increased. I pray blessing and favor upon them as they begin this new ministry. Cover them with your protection and provision we pray in Jesus name ~ Amen.
I do have aprospect that seems seriously interested. DH said even if we didnt have this opportunity he would still want me "to do something about that machine" It has taken over my life. But I know it was for a reason. It has taught me alot to help me know how to manage my time and I could keep doing it if It werent in our house. But we are ready to leave for this new venture with a fresh amount of energy and I just would rather help dh build up our church than a business. So its our new season. We are breaking the ice to our people tonight and over the next few weeks they will be given the chance to send us out with $ help. We are trying to locate a house. I want a nice one. One that requires no fixing up. Becuase dh doesnt have time for it. He is also having problem with his blood sugar and will be put on a diet this week to see if we can control it with that. It has been running high. So I will be dieting too. But back to the business.....
Keep me in your prayers that I will get everything done this week so I can focus on packing next week and enjoy mykids. They have become way to aquainted with the tv and daycare. DH wants our home to become a haven and resting place for him and the kids to have my attention. Here's what drove it home....the last day of school was Friday. The kids brought home a little booklet they had made. Inside was a questionaire and they asked my oldest (71/2) what does she want to do the most? She said spend time with my mom. I cried and decided right then and there that they will be they priority they need to be. I have been way to busy. So pray God will let it sell this week.(After I fill orders)
I absolutely understand where you are coming from right now! I have never felt so STRETCHED in my life! And it is not in a "bad" way (I'm sure you understand), it's in an "overwhelming" "good" way. The church is starting to pick up new people weekly- and they are people ready to commit and help! (Praise God!)
However, we are SO busy- there just aren't enough hours in a day! I am working a job, being mom and wife, plus the church- I need about 8 more hours in my day! (I'm sure we can all say that!)
I am determined to make my family a priority so something HAS to give somewhere--- but WHAT? I have been and continue to be in serious prayer about how to be "quality" in all I have to do.
It is kind of funny to me- but last year I wrote a workbook called, "I've Got a Destiny, Now What?"- and it talks about time management and setting M.A.D. goals- and I do it- BUT I just need more hours in a day!
So- with the FULL knowledge that TIME is something we all receive the same measure of- I KNOW that I am going to have to learn how to let some things wait- and learn to let each day or block of time have its moment- or I won't be able to be the mother, wife and homemaker I need to be!
This is SO hard for me because I am task oriented and motivated by goals- and I am ALWAYS thinking- and there is ALWAYS something else that needs to be done- but I am realizing that there ALWAYS WILL BE!
SO, to all you ppers who are moms and/or wives, and, and, and.... you are ALL in my thoughts and prayers!
