Family Matters Continued...

My brother which has lost his job has prayed for God to reveal to him what he would want him to do. So, yesterday he interviewed to become a Firefighter. I was really worried about his long drive before, but now? As we were sharing scripture he told me that he had read Matthew 6:25, "Do Not Worry". He also shared with me that a close friend had told him "If you find yourself in a hole...Stop digging!" He actually felt like he was in a hole at his last employment. I would like to share this with a few "not so close friends" in my life but am not sure how accepting they would be. I think sometimes we grasp at straws when there are no straws to grasp. Instead of moving on and letting God lead us, we tend to hang on to something that is no longer what God desires in our lives. Some of us learn the hard way, instead of letting go and letting God be in control! Whether it be money, pride, peers, or something else, it could be preventing us from doing the work God has called us to do. I am proud of my brother for seeking God's will and letting Him be his guidance! Please pray for his safety and God's guidance while opening this new chapter in not only his life but ours as well.
