What now?

We are having some issues at home, that are job related. I won't go into detail, but I will say, after an inspiring D Night last night at church, it's official, we have put it all into God's hands.
It's pretty sad that giving it to God was a last resort. I don't know why it turned out like that. I know we both should have turned to Him first, not last. Michael tries so hard to do everything he can for us, and I guess he is just being your typical prideful man when he wants to provide for us 100% by himself. Well, Lord, here we are, on bended knee, asking for some help!
We prayed together and apart, for the guidance to be put where we need to be, doing whatever is is we need to do.
I think, after some long talks with Michael and weighing our priorities, that my place is in the home. (Working mom's, don't go after me!) But I think if it is financially possible, in most situations, it is best for the mother to be home. I have always felt that way, even when I went to work full time last year, and maybe that's one of the reasons I resented that job so much, because it took me from my kids.
We are working hard as a family unit to put Him first in all we do, pray for us! We firmly expect to fail here and there, but as long as we are together to drag each other back up, I am confident we will be fine.

We are right there with you! Read Proverbs 3:5 over and over until it truly sinks in. I have to remind myself daily that we are not in control if we have given our life to God!:)

I think everyone fails at putting God first. I believe that is human nature. We are too working on this.
