An offer putting my stability in Question!!!

Counting the financial requirements for the coming months, I can not imagine how we can manage with our expenses; debt to pay, tuition fees and school services; food and other necessities, etc. It is tempting to grab the offer of higher wages away from the family, which is a very sad predicament.

Working abroad with triple wage compared to the amount I am receiving now will be a relief to financial burden. It is indeed a difficult thing because the time for the family is curtailed. The idea of raising the kids with them troubles me a lot. There is a price to pay.

I am reminded of Isaiah 31:1, " Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the multitude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel, or seek help from the LORD."
