Thoughts on children, homeschooling and fitness!

Decisions

  My dearest hubby has been asked to consider being the youth pastor at our church.  We are excited to serve in this capacity again (he was a youth pastor previously in Va).  It is a paid position.  He already works a great secular job that provides for us.  But I have a delima facing me.  I now teach aerobics, to help with finances.  I don't make alot of money but it helps some.  With hubby getting this positon I will have no need to work.  I can stay at home and homeschool my boys, which I felt God laying on my heart months ago. 

  *But* I am having a hard time thinking of giving up teaching.  It disrupts our days some (I teach in the AM on one day and they go with me & we do school in the afternoon) and I teach 1 or 2 nights for an hour or so.  We make it work, because we need it to for now.  What should I do?  I have prayed. Been silent.  Read my bible. 

  My biggest concern is that I do what God wants me to.  Does He want me to give it up? Back in March, I felt God leading me towards a speaking ministry, but after I attended She Speaks I felt I couldn't handle homeschooling, teaching aerobics and persuing a speaking ministry.  

  Am I being stubborn?  Am I being selfish.  I try to rationalise my feelings in all sorts of ways.

  I just need some godly counsel!  If you have any I would really appreciate it!!!!
