Quit my job....
« on: August 08, 2008, 08:01:00 PM »
Well guys,  I'm officially a full time (self-un-employed) bowyer now.  I quit my extremely boring job producing ethanol last week and I'm now doing what I love again; making bows.  

So... Those that do, send up a prayer for the Lord's provisions.  I gave up $18 an hour so i can get caught up on some orders and still have some time off.  So I thank you that pray for me in advance.  

I'm pretty much at peace and feel I'm doing the job God gave me to do.

Sounds great... Live your dreams!  Life is too short to work a job that you don't enjoy.

Mike,

Prayers sent....good luck with the business... here in West Virginia it seems the state makes being self-employed as difficult as possible.  Hope you're better off!!

Mike,

If you are where God wants you to be, ain't nothing better.  Security is a good thing, but speaking from real-live experience sometimes the price gets too high when it's eating up your family time and your sanity.  Prayers and best wishes to you.

I've read many times that God's not so much concerned with what job we have or don't, but how we live and treat others we meet doing whatever it is we do to make an honest living.

Live well, keep the Son in your eyes and good things will come, I'm sure!
