Her daughter is about to get married, and has been convicted about not working outside the home even before she is married. My friend and I have no problem with a single young woman working outside the home, as long as her father is in agreement with it and she is under his leadership. My first thought was "why don't you convince her it's ok to work as long as her dad's ok with it?" But she very wisely had told her daughter that if the Lord was convicting her not to work, then she should quit that very part-time job and obey the Lord voice in her heart.<BR/><BR/>I felt a little deflated! LOL But the more I thought about it, the more sense it made that our children are doing exactly what we've taught them to do - follow God! So you are a huge testimony to me, along with my other friend, of how to let go and let the kids develop their own walk with God. You're doing the right thing!Susanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08733406219995902188noreply@blogger.com
