A New Year With New Opportunities

Well here we are in a new year with many new opportunities presenting themselves to us as a family. All of which are very exciting in varying degrees.

I know that I will be getting a new job this year that I can feel good about. That is exciting in itself because I don't feel that I could say that I am honest in all my dealings with my fellow man while doing title loans. It makes me feel guilty to be doing that which I deep down feel is wrong, just to get a paycheck.

We will be buying a new house this year, which we've been anxiously waiting for, for the past 7.5 years. We've been told by one agent that the bank told them that they will most likely accept our offer, but it won't be until February 10. I've placed some pictures of the house here because unless something else comes along or we decide not to purchase it this will probably be the house that we get.



Along with everything else, life's possibilities are limitless. I've enjoyed learning everything that I have over the past 7 years, and I look forward to learning a lot more. My faith in my Lord Jesus Christ is unmovable. I have a firm determination to serve Him who is my God. I am the only one who can put limits on my possibilities through my lack of faith and disobedience which follows.
I love Monica and my children. Everything that I do is for them. I know that I make and have made and will continue to make mistakes, but Monica has never faltered in her love and support of me. That is all I need to succeed in life, is to know that my best friend supports me.
Happy New Year!

You are a remarkable family of great faith. I have a quote that I use to hang in my bedroom that I think applies to your current situation. I just rediscovered it yesterday. I don't know the author, sorry.
"Strength and struggle travel together. The supreme reward of struggle is strength. Life is a battle and the greatest joy is to overcome. The pursuit of easy things makes man weak." I would say the last 7.5 years have made you anything but weak. The Lord will provide. Hang in!
