My headphones allow me to hear the kids and, also listen to music at the same time throughout the day.
That is such a blessing in itself.
These headphones have allowed me to always be alert to everything that is going on around me.
It is easier for us to hear from God when we are alert and completely drawn into Him.
A little over five years ago when Alex and I were engaged he had seen a sermon that really spoke to him and, he felt that it would be best if I stayed home with our future children.
I was a few months away from finishing up my bachelors and, I was no doubt going to apply and take the next big job offer.
I know for sure Alex and I took the harder way in life by having me stay home with the kids.
That decision saved me from myself.
At the time we didn't know the positive impact that me staying at home would have on our family.
If I would have taken the next job offer I probably would have had to let it go based off our circumstances.
God knew that that would have been a lot harder for us as a family and, chose for us to just begin with little.
With the little that we had I have seen the power of God show up in the most amazing ways.
Following the calling God had on our lives came with many different challenges and,
every single time we tried to switch the plan it absolutely never worked out.
Although sometimes my Faith wavered He still remained Faithful.
That is how I knew that we were set apart.
No calling comes without sacrifice.
We were called.
You have to be willing to do anything that God puts in front of you.
Even if you do not agree and, even if it doesn't look the way that you thought it would.
You have to continue to love Him.
You also have to continue to trust Him.
It's a test of our faithfulness.
In the book of Psalms 37:25 it speaks on never seeing the righteous one forsaken.
He will not forsake you for going after the calling that He has on your life.
If we have a heart after God that's when doors that you have never known would open, always tend to open.
If God calls you to something He will always provide everything that you need.
Just like mine there's even more to your own story.
We all have different callings.
We just have to make ourselves readily available to receive His calling.
God is calling you.
Are you listening?
