Well, as most know we've had an eventful week.
Monday Allan's work was filled with rumors of the company closing its doors.
Tuesday came the bad news that the rumor was true. Immediately, I dispatched all of our praying friends to join us in praying for our family & situation as Allan is the sole provider of our house. Within two hours of the first news, Allan contacts me that he was one of the approximate 100 out of nearly 1500 that still had a job.. for now anyway. And praise God for Allan's previous employers to be so willing to help us out with temporary jobs in the mean time. We believe God doesn't close one door without opening another. We believe God to do great things in our family!
On Monday, my devotion was on God stretching us to develop perseverance. Ironic.. I think not. I believe He was telling me that He was going to stretch us a little. And, we welcome the stretching! God is refining us to deepen our dependence upon Him. We know He will provide for our family. We serve a mighty and awesome God.
Last night we were able to enjoy a movie on the church lawn.. Charlotte's Web. The kids had a great time even though it was unbelievably hot! I believe the van said it was 88... at 9PM! It's always nice to be able to fellowship with friends.
And, we got Nate's PreT-Ball team name today! Nate will be playing for the Cubs. We're so exicted about this. So, stay tuned for pics!! He's gonna be so cute... we can't wait!!
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
And, our Sunday school teacher is going to be doing a lesson (2-3 Sundays) on 'End Times'.. what happens when we leave this planet. Topics we will discuss and explain are words/events/happenings like: Rapture, Tribulation, Great Tribulation, Abomination of Desolation, The Bema Seat, The Great White Throne Judgment.
