Job Surprise!!!!!!

So for the last two days I have been working at a furniture store. I was not selling stuff just helping out with a sale that they where having. Then they offer me a job with a lot of blunt information. The salary would be commission and very long hours. This is a job and it would be enough to bring home my husband. So I am torn in between what to do. I have been in shock so far no one has ever just offered a job. Next I have been talking to love ones and most of all the Lord. My head is coming up with great ideas to promote new customers but is that the teacher coming out or the Lord talking. So many times I get confused with my voice or the Lord's. i am still trying to learn his voice well.

Then would I be harming my friendships by asking people to come see me if they need furniture? I have always felt bad about asking people to buy things even if they need it. I would love to help people find something that they are totally satisfied with. But would your buy something from a person like me? The guy said that I have a great personality and that is half of what makes a great sells person. I told him that I can't be pushy and make someone buys something that they are not ready for. But they said that they don't want pushy people! Sorry for airing out my nerves, wildly erratic feelings to you. I am not sure what to think or what to do?!?!?!?!?

If you have any words of wisdom they would be appreciated!!!

Hey E - God always brings order not confusion. I know the money in tempting but what about the girls? who'd watch them while you're away? Just another thought to take to the Lord... I know it seems overwhelming right now but God will show you which path is right for YOU. I'm lifting ya up in prayer! :)

Here's to hoping.... :)

I like that too, tim taking the job! I know you could do it. Don't underestimte yourself, but the long hours thing bothers me. And would it pay enough for tim to come home. or would he have to find a job as well? You gotta follow your heart and your gut. i think the Holy Spirit talks through our gut! when we're praying!

NOTICE: Tim doesn't want a sales job. Tim is burnt out on sales jobs and will probably end up maiming the first stupid and annoying customer. Probably not, but the scene may not be beneficial to his sanity. FYI, yes I have started blogging, too: Random Thoughts of a Traveler. (As to the deleted comment, this is the same one, but I changed a typo. Ask E, that doesn't happen often and I couldn't stand to see it.)
