Catch Up- Part One
Since I have arrived home and even before that I got out of the habit of writing on here, I would say I feel bad about it but I haven't. Before I left Dublin I felt God telling me to live in the moment, be fully present in what was happening around me, that didn't change when I got home.
When I got home it wasn't necessarily pleasant, it was hard ,I had car problems that cost to much money to fix, I had no money due to the fact I lived in Europe and spent it all.Then there was the fact that I was home in Calgary with no clue what the next step was.
Logically I started to job hunt. I am very blessed to live in a place that essentially always has plenty of jobs avialable but strangely I could not get one in that first month home. I was forced to live on the good will of my family and God and that was really hard. Here I was almost 24 and I felt helpless. But God is forever faithful, not only did he make sure I was provided for I was given more than I needed, no it wasn't money but not only was my needs provided for I was blessed by so many around me.
Then finally God provided a job, it wasn't at all what I was looking for but they were offering money, how could I say no, it was above minumum wage, it wasn't working with food or retail, I couldn't say no. So I accepted it, the only downside was it was only part time and would not provide what I thought I needed.
But God again was so good through this season, I made it through I always had enough. Finally through months of prayer for the Lord to bring me full time work the Lord provided a place for me at the place I was already employed which was in some ways an incredible answer to prayer. I like where I work and I am so thankful for all God has given me in this.
Now that is only one aspect of the past six months. But this is long enough as it is, I will write another time of what else is going on.
I have missed writing here so hopefully my postings will become more frequent.
