My friends, I would like to invite you to pray with me.
My family is at an important turn and we have to take a decision that resemble more a gamble. The consequences of this decision will either destroy the family or make it stronger.
Here are the specifics ;) My wife has been offered a job at Harvard in Boston MA. Money wise we can make it work if she is in Boston, I stay in Utah and the kids are sent back to their dad's in Florida. This temporary solution would allow us to hopefully sale our house here in Utah, me finding a job in Boston and get a house big enough to relocate the whole family.
Boston is expensive but there are many opportunities to find a job in my field. I know we can do it, but Karen is hesitant (and I understand why) to split the family. She is afraid of staying alone for an undefined mount of time, she is afraid that we will not be able to get the kids back....
I am afraid that we will miss a great opportunity if we don;t go and that we will regret it later, I am afraid that we decide to do it and mess up and end up with nothing in a couple of month (not that it bother me, i came in this country 7 yars ago with 1 suitcase only)...
Decisions decision, we need to be able to keep our calm and analyse the situation.... obviously we can;t talk about it with our colleagues because we want to keep it kind of secret until we take a decision...
Decisions decision, I pray the Lord to give us the strength to find the right path....
