Everyday Niceties

God led me to the perfect job four months ago, and I still marvel at His match.

Four months ago, I was nearing the end of my savings account. After not having a job for about three months, things were pretty tense around my household. My parents were worried I wasn't going to be able to continue paying my bills, plus they were a wee bit tired of my lazy bum sitting around the house doing nothing. (Not that I can blame them!) I began actively searching for a job at the end of October and gave the situation entirely to my Father in heaven. I knew with my previous two jobs I had gotten "all on my own" and hated them immensely. So, this time I made the heart decision to do it God's way. I've been happy with my job ever since :)

Today was another perfect reminder of how blessed I am to work at Staples. I was SICK. I don't know why, but I knew that at any moment I could barf and I had a massive headache. But I went into work anyway, because I feel guilty just thinking about calling in.

As soon as I walked in the door people were asking me what was wrong.
For an hour and a half they twisted my arm until I finally agreed to go home early. (:
These people care. It's truly amazing to me and I thank God daily for my job.

In retrospect I can look back on these past four months and actually SEE what happens when I trust God. Fantastic things happen :) I pray that I can continue to do His will instead of my own, because things work far much better when I go with God.

Anyone else ever had this epiphany?

Well, I'm off to bed to get some more sleep. I have tests tomorrow :( That I haven't studied for... oh dear, maybe that's why I'm sick! :P

In His Love,
Samantha! :)
