Day 6 - Work and My House

Handwritten 2/6/10 transposed to the web 2/8/10

1 Cor. 2:14 “But people who aren’t spiritual can’t receive these truths from God’s Spirit.  It all sounds foolish to them and they can’t understand it, for only those who are spiritual can understand what the Spirit means.”

I heard that I needed to read this verse today as I prayed this weekend.  People who can discern God’s voice and message are those who believed in God and have faith, thus Spiritual ‘intuition’ and understanding.  For the last 2 years I’ve been asking God what to do in regarding if I should keep or leave my house.  9 months ago I was asked to make either 1 or another decision for the company, either leave or stay with a mandatory 1/3rd pay cut.  I, Like everyone else faced with this decision, said I guess that I’ll stay (but began putting feelers out).  Now the company, who promised that this pay cut wouldn’t last long has drawn it out 9 full months with no end in sight.  My mortgage company hasn’t received full payments since.  I’ve begged God for help on this, requesting His wisdom, discernment and yet I feel I’m still in the dark as much as I was 9 months ago.  I feel I’m in the dark, especially since each time I dust off the ol resume, new prospects of work show up and I get busy again, all with out an increase of pay.   In meetings we get the “hang in there” speech a we still labor hard and long hours.  Lord, help me with Your discernment when it comes to these issues.  Please Lord let me hear you.
