The Last Thing We Were Expecting

After over eight months of unemployment, we had pretty much given up on Nelu ever hearing from his workplace again. But he got the call this week to come back to work. Nelu had prayed for a way to be able to see Evi more this past school year. I guess his prayer was answered in a very unexpected way. And now that school is out, he's going back to work. We are very thankful for this time of uncertainty, although we don't readily welcome hardship. We have learned to live differently, and I'd say we've seen some growth in these past months. We are now very thankful for this opportunity to get back in the work mode. (Not that Nelu's not been busy during this time--he's found lots of projects to occupy his time!)

Dupe opt luni de cand Nelu si-a pierdut slujba, noi am crezut ca Nelu nu o sa mai auda nimic despre slujba lui veche. Dar a primit un telefon de la seful lui saptamana asta sa se intoarca la munca. Nelu s-a rugat in August sa aiba cumva s-o vada pe Evi mai mult in timp ce mergea la scoala. Cred ca a primit un raspuns la rugaciunea lui, dar intr-un mod neasteptat. Si acum dupa ce s-a terminat anul scolar, Nelu se intoarce la munca. Ii multumim lui Dumnezeu pt. acest timp in care a trebuit sa ne depindem mai mult de El. Am invatat multe in acest timp, si cred ca am si crescut putin. Si acum ne bucuram de aceasta oportunitate de munca, chiar daca Nelu si-a ocupat timpul facand multe lucruri si proiecte in ultima vreme.
