I resigned!

I have forgotten that many of you may not know that I've resigned from Church on the Rock and KE Resources. It was a very tough decision, but once God made it clear, I knew it was time to go.

I had been trying to juggle two business, one very busy husband, one struggling daughter (more details later), a house, and work at COTR and KER. It was getting to be too much and no one was getting 100% of my time, in fact, I don't think that ANYONE was getting 10% of my time. I kept praying that God would 'fix it'. In January, I went part time at COTR and KER hoping that would help (knowing all the time that I was really supposed to be resigning).

Darren and I, after much prayer (though Darren would not make the decision for me) decided that the companies were the vision of our house and our financial future. We even felt strongly that the next big growth burst for both companies would come when I focused more on them.

So, on a Monday morning, just after Pastor Ron's Mentor Meeting with his staff, I resigned with a lump in my throat and holding back tears. I love working for him. There is no greater boss on planet Earth (sorry Darren :P).

Finally, the Lord made it even more clear when Kate was tested and diagnosed with Severe Dyslexia just a couple of weeks after my last day. Kate needed my attention more now than ever, and being the boss of two companies gave me the schedule flexibility to do that.

Now, I pick her up at 3:00 and we go home. No stress...no other responsibilites...phone turned off if necessary. We do her homework and then if I need to go to Gibson's or to Creel Investments I can...but she comes first!

My prayer: Lord, I'm so sorry I'm so hard-headed. I just couldn't imagine I wasn't supposed to be working for Pastor Ron and COTR. I see now it wasn't about me...I'm not sure it was even about Kate. But I know you have a plan...and I know it's a good plan. I am choosing to be a part of it. I believe Lord, but help me in my hard-headedness. ~Amen.
