...sigh, finally a chance to write this up. over the course of the last month Brad and I began to feel a pressing on our hearts from the Lord that it was maybe time to have me quit working for the chiropractic office. Yes i was working from home and everything seemed to be working out well, but each week at staff meetings I was sensing more and more a need to leave. hmmm...the Lord definately works in a timely manner, at the same time we were sensing the need to leave I had an offer from a midwife to work as her office manager. This is a very part-time position 2x a week and I can bring Annalise with me! She desperately needed someone to do paperwork, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and insurance collecting. Perfect job for me! I have 2 years of experience with this at a very high-volume level having worked at the chiropractic office. Anyway, so this past Monday I resigned from the chiropractic office as an employee, patient, and friend. Sounds pretty all-inclusive you say? yes, it was. It had to be. The Lord is showing us through various conversations, reflections and prayer that there is a dark battle raging in that office and it was time for us to get out. I have a strong sense that He is choosing to protect my family from something. ... and He has very clearly provided all we need in my new job: family atmosphere, a profession I can work for and believe in, god-fearing people to work around and under. We are grateful!! There is so much more that could be written, but I am keeping this short so you all can get the jist and ask questions in person if you like.
