During this uncertain period, I’ve found strength in reflecting on special moments tied to significant dates. I wanted to write them down as a testament of faith, so I’ll remember them when the answers to my prayers unfold.
15 August: The Feast of the Assumption of Mary
This was the day I officially tendered my resignation, stepping into the unknown without any idea of where I would work next.
15 October: The Feast of St. Teresa of Ávila – A teacher of prayer and the spiritual journey
This marked my last day as a working mom, transitioning back to being a stay-at-home mom.
1 December: First Sunday of Advent – Hope
I began the Novena to Our Lady, seeking guidance and praying for my next work assignment, though still uncertain about what lay ahead.
9 December: The Feast of the Immaculate Conception and Second Sunday of Advent – Peace
On the final day of my novena, I messaged the CEO of a company that had promised to hire me. He replied, saying the strategic planning discussion would take place later in the week, and he would touch base with me after my return from the holidays. Before sending the message, I prayed, finding peace regardless of the outcome. I trust that everything is under God’s control.
As of now, I don’t know what the result will be. However, I’ve made peace with whatever path God chooses for me.
If it is God’s will for me to work again in His field, I trust that He will provide a role perfectly suited to my talents, gifts, and time. It will offer flexibility to spend with my family, a monetary remuneration to ease my husband’s burdens, and even support our dream of a pilgrimage to Italy.
On the other hand, if His will is for me to remain a stay-at-home mom, I trust He will give me the grace to nurture my children, support my husband, learn new skills, and write inspiring articles or content. I believe He will also provide financially for our family and our pilgrimage plans.
