I hear you!

So the past two weeks I have really been struggling with money. It's not like I want to be rich or anything like that! I was working full time at a nursing home and was really unhappy about the place I was working at and it was effecting my attitude, it was making me miserable. I have been applying for other jobs basically since I've started this job because I knew I would not want to stay there long but I needed a nurse job and it was in the town I am living in so I took it. About a month ago I got a call from a different nursing home in a town close by, and it is a really nice nursing home! The only problem was that the job is only minimal part time, meaning I only get works after the full-time and part-time workers get theres, if there is anything left over I have a chance at it. Well, I took the job and went to being "occasional" at the job I don't so much like. I have been much happier and prayed a lot about what to do. My parents were not too happy when they found out I gave up my full time job for something that has no guarantee of hours.

In the past two weeks God has been speaking to me over and over and over again about trusting Him, especially when it comes to providing for my financially. I have never had to rely on God for money before because I have worked steady jobs since I was 15 years old. (I know God is the one that has blessed me with these jobs but I don't usually remember that!) Seriously though, every where I go people are talking to me about trusting God and talking about giving money. Tonight I went to church, to a church I don't usually go to and guess what the sermon was on? That's right, how money can become an idol to us. Ok, God, I give up. You have my attention!

It is just so amazing and crazy how things like that happen. All the people that I have talked to, I never once mentioned what was going on and how God was talking to me about this in my quiet time with Him, but yet they all spoke to me about it. I can't believe how long sometimes it takes me to listen .......

Until next time I will keep moving on in this journey called life.
