Throughout my life, and in particular the last few years, I have seen and felt the help of God Almighty. He has helped make sure I was in the right place at the right time doing the right thing. At times I lost my way and found myself in trouble, but when I tried to turn around and come back, He was right there, helping me along. He sent people to encourage me and show me the way to go. Then one day he gave me the greatest blessing so far; my husband. I know the Lord's hand was in our meeting, our short dating period and even shorter engagement. In the last few months His hand has been showing up often. After many months of prayer, pleading, and endless hours of work, my husband and I have been blessed with what we desired; a job in the profession of my husband's choice!
With moving out of state I was going to have to leave my job. We were unsure if we had made the right choice in moving (by this time we had already moved out of our apartment and into his parents house). We decided to keep moving forward because God had helped us get this far, He would help us the rest of the way, we just needed to keep the faith.
Today my husband went out of town to find us a new apartment while I was working. We had decided to go with the old, out-of-date, tiny apartment because we only had his income to depend on. As he was down there looking, my God-sent manager got on the phone and in five minutes had me a job down there. Talk about blessings from heaven! A few minutes late my husband called telling me what he was finding with the apartments. When I told him I had a job you could tell the relief he felt by his tone of voice. What a blessing!
Now we are able to afford a newer, more up-to-date apartment. Thank you Lord!
All of those months of praying, pleading, weeping, begging, and endless hours of hard work have paid off. The Lord truly knows our desires and loves us. He wants us to be happy but just like any loving parent, he will not "pick us up" when we are learning how to "walk". We need to be stretched and challenged in order to grow. Thank you Lord for loving me enough to put me through these trials.
A very nice post. ~Ms. A.
