I saw this as temporary, every indication I had gotten from my manager was this was temporary....but now it looks like it could last awhile and I am left a little perplexed. What am I supposed to be doing? I thought the job was ending or at the very least be limited. I don't mind the job, the pressure is now gone and I have flexibility that I wanted, but is this what God had in mind all the while,was it just the willingness to let the job go? Do I continue where I am at or is there another direction that God has for me, I feel like I am at a crossroads of sorts and need to hear from God.
"Be still and know that I am God" Psalm 46:10
Husband is out of town on business...I am with him. He is gone all day working, I am alone without a schedule. This is something that is quite foreign to me, (no schedule) but its a good thing. I have been encouraged by friends to use this time away to be still before the Lord, to let family handle things at home and to turn off my cell phone..(probably can't do that) I have planned to do some reading (I brought some much neglected books) some photography...it is a beautiful place and yes I have planned to be still.
In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice, in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation Psalm 5:3

Hi there, I love your photo-so reminds me of northern Ca. I can understand your being perplexed at what you boss wants. Praying that the Lord grants you wisdom as you seek His plan for your future.

Maryann,
I hope your time away with hubby is a blessing! May He quiet your heart and give you peace and wisdom in the midst of such uncertainty about your job. {hugs}
I read these scriptures this morning also...we can't go wrong when we are still and listen to His voice...blessings!
Good morning....Praying you hear His voice today and experience a peace in your hear that you know can only come from Him. HUGS
My fav scripture. It has been so helpful to me over my life. I pray God will give you some direction/assurance soon. It's hard to wait, I know. But it seems to be God's pattern. :-)
I am in a similar position and mind frame. Praying and waiting for the Lord to show me what is next. Thinking about entering the work force, outside the home, something that I haven't done in over 30 years!
The LORD will give you wisdom Maryann. He guides our steps as we look to Him for each one. I would say...ask your husband what he would like to see in the way of how much/how little work to do...it may clear things up for you. Go with your heart on it.
As for your time away to be quiet...what a blessing! Your photo of the ocean is GORGEOUS!!
Many Blessings,
Camille
