We have hope.

So those of you that don't know, James hasn't worked since December 20th, 2010.  He's not officially been laid off, just not working, and thus, not getting paid.  It's been a HARD month for us.  But we have Amazing family and friends who have helped us through and prayed diligently for us to some how get through this.  Today, when calling in to his office, instead of being told he was on stand-by, he was told to come into the office to meet his boss.  That they were going to Winston-Salem.  Now mind, you this may very well mean that he is driving to Winston-Salem to give his company vehicle to a new employee.  That is not out of the question.  Especially with these people.  They are spiteful enough to do that.  But atleast then, we would know where we stand.  We wouldn't sit in wonder everyday, not knowing what the next step is. 
In the past month, I've asked myself, how do they sleep at night.  How do you honestly live with yourself knowing that you are taking food right out of someones mouth.  That you might possibly be taking the roof from over their head?!?!?!  HOW??!?! 
I have resigned myself to the fact that not everyone has a conscience and not everyone feels convicted and guilty when they do something wrong.  There truly is evil in this world.  But my God is Greater than ALL of that.  ALL OF IT!!!!  If you ever doubt that God is beside you, read my favorite scripture, Jeremiah 29:11 where it says: 
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
I am not super woman and I can not do it all....that's right, I said it. 
BUT I have hope and a future.  What else could you possibly want?? 
Have a blessed day everyone!!!!! 
<3 James, Shanna, and Justin
