I believe the Lord puts you in certain places and situations for different reasons. My new job was definitely one of those places. In the first few weeks of working, I was asked to lie for the company and my boss decided it would be a good idea to talk about me behind my back to my fellow co-workers. I knew that lying for this company was something I did not believe in and I knew was certainly not right. I began looking at other options and I found out that in the state of Florida, all you have to have to teach school is a Bachelor's degree of any kind as long as you take a certification test. I signed up to take the test and this coming Tuesday is when I will take it. I am also meeting with the principal at Escambia Christian School to talk about possibly substitute teaching. My boss found out that I was looking for another job and was going to fire me once they found a replacement. He also was trying to find ways to run me off so he wouldn't have to fire me. The burden was too much for me to handle and I quit my job yesterday. I knew that quitting was the best option for my family and for myself. Steven was a huge supporter and helped me through everything I was going through. I truly believe the Lord put me in this job to help me see that all Christians are not really Christians. I truly believe that I made the best decision. I know the Lord is going to take care of me and I will find another job soon. If I pass this test on Tuesday, then I will be certified to teach and maybe by January I will be teaching. Your prayers are greatly appreciated!
Steven is still in school and is enjoying it. He has a lot of work he has to do each night, but I am so proud of him for the hard work he's putting into everything. I have the most amazing husband in the world. He is such a loving, caring man who supports me in everything I want to do. I am truly blessed.
Love,

My New Job
Today was my first day working at Scott's Outdoor Sports. I had a really good day, but I have so much that I have to learn in a few months. It's going to be crazy and I'm going to be busy, but my life wouldn't be normal if it weren't crazy and busy! I have my own desk, I got an e-mail address and I have my own extension when someone calls me! I was so excited about all of this. Now I get to take pictures of me and my wonderful husband and of my girls to sit on my desk.
Steven was so wonderful today. When I got home, he already had supper cooked and our laundry sorted out...so I could put it up! He also had the bed made. What a champ! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect husband. Steven has been so supportive throughout this whole waiting game with me searching for a job. Now I'll be bringing home the bacon and he'll be frying it up...so he says!
I'm actually looking forward to going to work again tomorrow. The drive is a pain though. Right now I'm driving almost an hour one way just to get to work. That will all change once we move to Cantonment next month. Then it will only be about 30 minutes or so. The drive home was a little scary. People down here just don't know how to drive!
Steven started his second week of school today. He is really liking the preaching school and is learning a lot. He is working on support letters to send to different churches in the area and back in Tennessee. Since the school doesn't want their students to have full time or part time jobs, earning support from different churches and individuals is the only way for Steven to have some money coming in. Right now the Leonard Street Church of Christ is sponsoring him each month as well as a couple from Louisiana. He is hoping to earn more support from others so we can both have incomes coming in. He is working so hard and I am so proud of him. God truly blessed me when he gave me Steven.
Please keep us in your prayers. This new job will become a little more difficult each day and school will start getting more taxing for Steven. Your prayers are greatly appreciated.
