Hi God, I see you everywhere

I know God is always with me. But there are times when you just feel it more than others. And right now is one of those times. When my husband went to rehab, I was leaning on God pretty hard and He really got me through. When I found out I'd been accepted into the PTA program, for a minute I thought of turning it down. Maybe I should focus on my husband this year. Plus it just seemed crazy to quit a good job with insurance when he didn't have one either. Finally, I just took a breath and thought "You know, I have felt like God wanted me to do this... do I now think He can't take care of me while I am doing it?" So I went ahead with my plan. I had a couple of things in mind. Like my husband could work in a bank or even maybe take my job. I was a little worried because I feel like he also has been called by God to do something, (become a teacher) and worried either of those jobs could be good enough to distract him from his purpose. But, we could worry about that later, for now he just needed a job that doesn't hurt his back. He was starting to get depressed again and fall back into some old patterns. We started to worry then decided to following Alanon principles instead of caretaking & enabling. My husband ran into somebody he knows that needed some help on their garbage truck. Guess what, it doesn't hurt his back. But no insurance or anything like that. Soon enough he saw that Homestead school was hiring a custodian. Now he went to Homestead as a kid and LOVES it! This job does have insurance. He got the job yesterday! He is going to be able to work both of them and has one online class this semester. God just worked it all out and with perfect timing. God is so cool like that.
