Published on May 24, 2013 by

Please welcome guest contributor, KM Logan of KMLogan.com, as she shares what God taught her and her husband through job loss.

...

There are a few moments in life that I would classify as “freak out” moments. Finding out my husband had lost his job was definitely one of them.

It was just a few months after we had gotten married, we were both settling into our new jobs, and we were both settling into our roles as husband and wife. That’s when I got the phone call.

I was happily answering ...

Published on April 11, 2013 by

I know that feeling of sheer panic that sets in when your husband comes home saying, "well, honey, I just got laid off."

Even though my husband and I saw it coming, it was still a pretty hard blow to our sense of inner peace when that reality hit us.

Thankfully, with a lot of hard and intentional efforts, our marriage survived three years of unemployment.

I have such a heart for this ministry of helping others keep their marriage strong through the difficult times of financial hardship that I wrote a book about ...

Be Strong and Courageous

Published on February 20, 2013 by

This year memorizing scripture has become a high priority for me.  While my personal and family struggles with unemployment and financial hardship may have passed, I'd be foolish to think life going forward will only be smooth sailing.

The thing is, God never promised a life free from trouble.

Even though I know God will never leave me nor forsake me, that He will always be with me carrying me through the difficult storms of life, and that no matter what happens He will find someway to bring good from my suffering ...

How to Love Your Husband Through Unemployment

Published on January 22, 2013 by

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.  

~ 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Experiencing trouble in life is not a new concept only relevant to our world today.  Pick up a Bible and read it for any length of time.  You're sure to see there are numerous stories of trial and tribulation throughout the pages of God's word.
