Unsurprisingly, all the stress was for naught.
The hubs withdrew himself from the running for the position today, I don’t have all the details but basically he found out the pay would not be enough, at least not to start. Their money is tied up due to the “pending matter” so the potential is still there, but really it was a stretch in terms of our finances even with the assumption that he’d get a small pay raise, there’s really no way we can responsibly make it work if he actually has to take a paycut to start. Or else we’d have to accept being 400 miles apart for at least a couple of years which I don’t think either of us are willing to do at this point in our lives.
So once again I sit here red-faced, and completely embarassed at how incapable I am of trusting God to guide us when He has never failed me before.
And, yet another reminder of how little real control I have over anything, we had yet another round of you-know-what’s at work today.
Whew! Thankful God made things clear 🙂
