Okay, I guess I’m officially back in business. I finally got some business cards printed and put my portfolio online in hopes of picking up more freelance work. We could use the extra income and, quite honestly, I could use the mental “mommy break.” I’m not sure how I will be able to juggle everything. Am I spreading myself too thin? Will my kids wish I wasn’t so busy? Will I regret this later? Can I handle this? Instead of paralyzing myself with questions, I’ve decided to press on and try. I can always stop if things get too busy. And if it’s not God’s will, I’m sure He will make that clear to me somehow. My husband has been very encouraging about it and willing to care for the kids while I work, even though it keeps me up late at night. I have some mom friends who have to work part-time outside the home to help make ends meet. That would be impossible in my situation. So I’m grateful that God has provided a way for me to work at home, even with all its domestic challenges. I have to choose daily to stop worrying and to simply trust Him.
“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7
