Job offer on 30% or not?

I have received a job offer on 30% on a High-school to be a teacher in art and craft  for the rest of this school year, which is approxy 4 month.  But it also means I have to work where I am working right now… Am I willing to work 2,5 day’s at each school?  I really don’t know.

The pro list isn’t longer then the con list in this situation. The pro list to stay where I am is longer in my head. I would maybe earn more as a teacher but I don’t know that yet. If that’s truth I guess I should considder the offer. But 30% isn’t much!

And I think that things I am doing on my spare time would be sat a side which I really can’t. I need to finish what I started, can’t wait longer, because I don’t have much more time.

So, I guess I have the answer.

I have peace for the school I am at, even if many of my friends thinks that working as a substitute teacher isn’t so stable. Well the Lord challenged me this last fall and I will trust him that he has a plan for why I am where I am.

Which means I should/ will turn down the offer. But I am going to pray over it and talk to the Lord about it this weekend.

The book in my house Church – To All Time.

What’s on my mind? Well I just got home from my house church group ten minutes ago (Wednesday)  where we talked about the theme “Honestly & talk truth” from a book we read.

How honest shall we be with friends and family? Well it depends on the situation. Do we need to learn this as we grow (from beinga child to becomeanadult) ? Yes we do! We need to learn when and what and how we say things. How honest are you to your nearest?  This was questions we talked about. And in my house church we are five women with all different home situations, some have teenagers at home, someone are the only parent, I don’t have kids or a hubby. Yet we were thinking a lot a like.  Maybe because we have lived and learn life.

I always look forward those meetings with my house church, right now in life, maybe a bit extra cause I have been able to go to any service so far in 2024 because of back issues. But the house church has always been more important for me since I recieved Jesus into my life as an adult. 

And I like the challenge that I need to read a new chapter for each time we gathering, which mostly is every second week except this time . But it’s not just to read it’s the fact I need to think about what I read and how will it fit into my life? Or my faith. And what can I bring with me where I work?  How honest can I be at work? How do I talk to my colleagues  and how do I adjust my truth? This is life!
