Well, today is a big day...it marks the beginning of "the new guy" auditioning for Derek's job and the possibility of a new season on the way for the Fekkes Family. In a few short days we will know whether or not Derek has a job still or... well, I don't actually know what "or" could be. Because we use this blog to update our loved ones on our lives, I'm not going to succumb to the pressure to censor how we are feeling. IT SUCKS! This waiting, anxious feeling of looming unemployment combined with a "God is surely in control - who are we to TELL him how to work in our lives" mindset - SUCKS. A part of me just wants to scream, "LET THIS BE OVER!" But I know that this is a teachable moment, a moment of great growth as a family and great faith as a believer in Christ. As I type I look over at smiling Ezra and know how blessed we truly are. So, if you want some prayer points for us, here goes:
Faith, wisdom and discernment
Employment!!
Contentment
Financial provision
We'll keep you posted on how things go this week! ON the upside, Derek actually gets to worship with his wife and son this Sunday! First time EVER!
