Matthew 10:28“Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill you. They can only kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29Not even a sparrow, worth only half a penny, can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. 30And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. 31So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to him than a whole flock of sparrows.
These verse’s are dedicated to Rubymoon. But to all of us too. Don’t be afraid! I will hold onto them.
Rumours are spreading at Rob’s work about layoffs. The state of Washington is in financial trouble due to the earthquake this year–and yes it was this year. It seems so far away due to more recent events such as 9/11
Rob has a AWESOME job, but he is also low man on the totem pole. There are other less qualified people ahead of him. But that’s just the problem. They are ahead of him on the seniority list. I want to obsess and to panic. But I will trust God. I will, I will!
He is a nurse, he can ALWAYS find another job. Even if the benefits aren’t as good. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not unto your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct thy paths.
This is so terrible. But he has an employee who shows up to work drunk more then 1/4 of the time. And yet she continues to work. I keep praying she’s the one who gets layed off. Is that wrong? I know it is, and yet…she’s given everyone in the department grief. UGH! TRUST
Father God, I keep letting this take over my head, and worrying. We will soon have 7 mouths to feed, and things have been so comfortable financially, I know when mom & dad adopted he lost his job, and he’s been struggling ever since. We don’t have the resources he did to survive. Please do NOT allow me to obsess, and please let me trust you. Please.
I was sick all day yesterday. Just really nauseous. I never threw up, but I’m sure I would have felt better if I had. I have this BAD feeling today is gonna be more of the same.
I was so wiped by evening that in tears I told Zeria we would NOT be going to cubbies. She took it very well. Which I was so grateful for. I could NOT have handled her meltdown yesterday.
Kaylin still has a NASTY cold. And I’m desperately hoping she is NOT as clingy as she was yesterday. I was so wiped by evening I put her in her crib & let her fuss for 30 minutes–she didn’t scream, just fussed so I could regroup.
Father, I got sleep last night, but I do NOT feel functioning. I’m tired, a bit worried about Rob’s job. And kinda sick. I need you today to carry me along. To give me the strength to enjoy my family, and to trust you to be in control. In your sons name, Amen

I’m praying for you today. I’m sorry about the stress of DH possibly losing his job. Hopefully it won’t happen. I’m also praying that you feel better today. (((hugs)))
Hang in there girl!
{{{hugs}}}you will be fine. You are a strong woman. I will be praying about the job situation.
I will be praying for some relief concerning Rob’s job. I can tell you that here in Michigan, they seem to be desperate for Nurses, they were having signing bonuses last year. He is in a wonderful profession that will ALWAYS be needed!
God I pray that you would wrap your peace around Tonia in this time. Help her to remember that you have not given her a spirit of fear. I pray that what ever the sitution comes up with Rob’s job that they would listen to your guidence.Amen
Hand in there all will work out in the end. (((HUGS)))
Hope tomorrow finds you feeling better!
I’m not going to put up a background. Surprise, huh?
I agree with Mrs.Moore….nurses are needed so badly everywhere. And I’m actually very surprised that a drunk nurse is allowed to work with patients…that’s very scary to me. I assume Rob has talked to someone about this? You are in my continual prayers.
