Thank You

To everyone that has continued to pray for me during my time of unemployment I wanted to sincerely thank you for everything. I received word today that I am hired pending a background check starting Monday!! I cannot begin to express how thrilled I am with this news. My severance was quickly depleting and I was beginning to get worried. I kept praying and all of my worry seemed to go away. I spoke with one of my friends that is still working at Make a Wish, she said that the rest of the employees that were laid off are still without jobs due to the rough economy; I would ask that you continue to pray for them and all of those that are still without jobs. That is a tough position to be in and one that I never would like to be in again.

I am starting to believe just how powerful prayer can truly be. I was reading Matt. 17:20&21, paraphrasing Jesus says that the power or prayer can move mountains. I dont think it was a coincidence that I read this as I was going through this rough time. I started praying a lot more and believing in my prayers. I have not always been the best example of what a Christian should be, but I think this whole thing was a wake up call. I think God was telling me I have blessed you with many things and I can take it away just as easy. This has definitely been a wake up call to not take God's blessings for granted and not to lose sight of what is important.
