My Goal

Lately it seems everything in my life is just going very peacefully and flowing quite well. I am in utter amazement at God's blessing and work in my life. For a while I was seriously struggling to trust Him and understand why things happen the way they do, and then the week of April 5th happened. I decided April 3rd that no matter what it took I was going to trust God in every aspect of life. I wasn't going to try to do things on my own and I definitely wasn't going to give up on waiting for His will to be done. So this is what happened after. On Monday April 5th I applied for two jobs at Altura Credit Union. On Tuesday April 6th Altura's Recruiter called me to set up an interview. Wednesday April 7th I was interviewed for both positions. Thursday April 8th I was called and offered both and I got to pick which one I wanted. Than Saturday April 10th morning after many many months of my car hating me it decided to make the most awful noises I've ever heard, but I continued with the plans for the day and when to L.A. with Scott's family for his mom's birthday, when I got home my parents had the most beautiful, wonderful graduation present pull into the driveway......it was a car!!!!!!!!! The only catch to this wonderful week was making sure that I didn't just praise God and trust Him in the good times, but I needed to learn how to trust Him in the darkest of dark times as well. I have become a new woman. I am so aware of all the blessings in my life and I have been trying to make sure that people are aware of my appreciation for them as well as my gratitude for their part in my life. God is so good, and I'm doing my best to be a shining light of His love and using my blessing to share His love and the faith that I have in Him. It definitely isn't easy all the time, and its much easier to get lazy or blame God when something goes wrong, and forget Him when something goes right, but its my mission to make sure that doesn't happen.
