Say What??

Sorry for the lack of posts of late but the last two weeks have been quite a roller coaster. I found out last Tuesday, only three days after getting home from Liberia that my hours and pay were being cut in half effective April 1st due to slow business. And potentially I could be let go altogether if work doesn't pick up in the next couple of months. Quite a jolt! Especially with a baby on the way and Heidi going to part-time work afterwards. Thankfully my boss did give me a sizable bonus to help offset the reduced pay but that only goes so far.

I have gone through the whole gamut of emotions. Multitudes of questions are creeping in my mind. Can I make my mortgage payment? Will be able to find a comparable job? You get the picture. On top of that I have been spending most my days of late rapidly working on the new web site for my work during the day, and my own site/resume in the evenings as well. So much to do in what seems to be very little time. I think the whole situation has really worn me out.

But then I remember how I have been through far worse (maybe not financially) and God didn't abandon me then. And part of me is eager to see where He leads me. Heidi and I are doing some serious praying and searching to see where we go now.

So it might be awhile longer before I can post my Liberia pictures and some of my thoughts and stories from the trip. But I do intend to post them.
