He is good...all the time March 20, 2014

The Lord has blessed me so much in the past few months. He has blessed me with a husband, a new home, a new church family & some friends, and most recently a job that I love. As awesome as these blessings have been, it has been extremely difficult for me to look for the positive things, and not be depressed. This move was WAY more difficult than I had anticipated. But the Lord has been faithful (when isn't He?!), and I have sensed His presence close to me along the way.

One of the ways I've struggled to see His work in my life has been in my job. I went from working 40+hrs/wk to barely 20hrs/wk, rotating from office to office. A great deal of the workplaces have been in a negative environment. While the work wasn't hard, I came home exhausted and down almost every night. It's been rough! I applied for other positions, was promised other positions, and nothing ever came through. Honestly, some days I felt like my prayers were bouncing off the ceiling.

Then, 2 weeks ago, in a whirlwind of events, I found out about a job, applied, interviewed, was offered the job, accepted it, and started the job...in less than 1 week. I've been at my new job for 2 weeks now, and can see clearly now that this was my Father's plan all along. Both the doctor and the nurse I work with are believers, well connected to their church families. This is a positive environment, and I love it!

God is good. All the time. Even when we don't see it, and everything seems bad. He is still good.
