If you have been wondering about a job for B or praying with our family that the Lord would provide a job for B, then today is a day to earnestly pray!
Our hope has been to stay in Lynchburg. Our reasons: not having to move! (time, expense, hassle); we like the community and are feeling part of it after 3 years; we are involved in church, at the YMCA, in a local CSA, with friends, in home-schooling groups; we would like to continue paying off our debt and paying down our house; we love the mountains, the rich history in VA, and there are so many things we haven't done yet!; the climate appeals to us; our desire is to move next to a home with more land and we will need several more years to be in position to do that; we enjoy our neighborhood and proximity to things; B has legal connections in Lynchburg.
I haven't posted much on this job-hunting phase, mostly because there isn't much to say. B is studying diligently for the Bar exam and there isn't much time left over for looking into jobs. His applications have led to only one interview, his experience has not led to an opportunity (but we never said we wanted to move to Alabama!). Our loan money is running out and it seems like time to know what to do. . .
But our hope is in the Lord and not in a job. He has always provided for our family and we trust Him to take care of us again, in His good will and perfect timing.
Today B has a meeting with a lawyer from a firm in Lynchburg. Please pray for wisdom and discretion, for rapport if the Lord would bless this interaction. Please pray that I would have a joyful spirit to accept whatever B decides is best for our family.
Thank you, dear Friends! I will definitely post more when we know something.
