The Predicament

First off, I want to point out that I do believe in the divine providence of Heavenly Father. I also understand that I must work hard to receive God's blessings. I am searching for a job that hopefully will be something that I can continue doing even during the thick of school. Flexible hours, preferably something online, but at this point, I am willing to take any job that will allow me to support my family. I spent part of one summer in Denver selling security systems. It was fun, and I really did enjoy the experience. I left early at the pressure of my roommate because we weren't selling as much as we had hoped, as well as other personal reasons. I have often felt that I would have seen more success had I stayed. Well, now I am faced with applying and searching for jobs, like I said previously. One job is a 100% commission job with the Home Depot. In applying, I asked my friend who invited me to sell in Denver if he would be a reference. He then offered me a management position in his own new security sales company to come sell with him in Iowa. In addition, he offered me an incentive cash bonus just for joining his team. I know I could succeed at this job. I know that it would be hard work and very difficult being so far away from my sweet family. However, I also know that this is a solid job. There is no sure guarantee of money because it is completely by commission. I just don't know what to do. Do I take the job and move to Iowa for a few months to work away from my family, or do I keep searching for a job in Logan?
Things to ponder. Things to consider.
