Last weekend Dave Ramsey, author of "Total Money Makeover" was in Colorado Springs to do a live Total Money Makeover presentation. Dr. Dobson, on Thursday and Friday, interviewed him on his Focus on the Family radio show. And then on Friday evening, Dave Ramsey was on a live call-in Webcast at Focus. Karen and I thought that maybe we could get some advice on our situation--since we won't have my source of income after school is out. (And Karen was hoping they might give her tickets to TMM event in the Springs.)
Karen did get on the Webcast and asked Dave about our financial situation. He basically re-affirmed what we have been considering: That I may have to consider getting any kind of job in order not to have a financial crisis, instead of just waiting to be a pastor. They did suggest that we talk to a counselor at the pastor care dept. of Focus to get support and advice. And since we called in, they sent us a copy of the book, "Total Money Makeover." But of course, we had already read it and had two extra copies that we have given away. Now, we have another one to give!
It seems that the longer we are waiting for God's leading, the longer it is between my posts on this blog--I guess because there is nothing new happening. The only thing happening actually is trying to decide where to live if we both need to get teaching jobs. The teachers at Karen's school don't understand why she might leave. One teacher was telling others that Karen was moving to California, and then others are asking if she is going to pack up at the end of school. It is very hard on Karen right now, so she would really appreciate your prayers as we face this time of instability and uncertainty. Those at my school are asking about whether I will be teaching there next year. But they have already promised my job to the Business teacher and will be looking to hire someone to replace him (that's not my field!) Plus the driving cost with gas prices is really digging into our budget!!
I still have faith that God will sell our house at just the right time and give us jobs at just the right place and time. He always has in the past and He is faithful!!
