UPDATE!!!!

I mentioned Monday that Roger and I had prayed and prayed about a personal situation for over a year and we got word that He had answered that prayer on Monday.  We cried, shouted and jumped up and down.

Our son called me at work Monday afternoon with the news.  He was offered another job and he took it.  He will still be working for the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers.  AND....he is moving HOME.  (At least to this area.)  His job will be at Chickamauga Dam in Chattanooga.
His current job is at Old Hickory Lake in Hendersonville, TN, which is about three hours from us.

He and his wife were miserable so far from home.  We had prayed and prayed that God would open the doors.  He sent out resumes, etc.  We figured he would have to leave the Corp to find work in East TN.  BUT....God opened the doors in His perfect timing.  (Their lease runs out the end of this month and they had not signed their new lease yet.)  Now it makes sense why God had not opened the doors for Melanie a job.

We were praying for ANYTHING in East Tennessee.  God had His own plans..................not only did he allow him to move back to E. TN............he gave him the closest Army Corp job to us in Dayton, TN.......and he will not lose his seniority or benefits.

PRAISE THE LORD.............God is Good...ALL THE TIME.

And....if you have ever had dealings with a government job...you know they tend to drag their feet.  NOT in this case.  He starts his new job March 11th.

We did a happy dance..........shouted...........and cried.  When your children hurt, you hurt too.

Did I mention that I was HAPPY?
