Unemployed, but Overjoyed

This time last year, I was unemployed.

I had been working a contract position and the position ended that February.

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but it is still relevant now because this post will go into a bit more detail about the series of events and some of the recent revelations I received during my meditation time today.

No matter what I talk about on this blog or any of my social media sites, I will always come back to sharing what the Lord has done for me.

When I was a little girl– I promised the Lord that if He would take my life and make it something different– something more than I could ever do on my own— I would let the world know what He’d done for me.

If you don’t remember any other thing about me, please know this– Every accomplishment, every good opportunity, every review (big or small), is God keeping His promises to me. I know that for a fact.

I do not take it  for granted and I believe with every fiber of my being that if God can do that for me, He can and will do it for you.

If you accept Him as Lord and Savior, if you purpose in your heart to trust Him, to build a relationship with Him– not that you will be perfect ( I am most certainly NOT), but that you will continue to press towards  the mark to accomplish whatever purpose it is that God has placed you on this Earth for– I KNOW He is FAITHFUL to do just EVERY GOOD THING He has promised in His word.

Similarly, a house can belong to someone, but if the person never comes to take possession of it. It just sits there.

It is a shell of what it could be.

Have you ever noticed how an empty house will eventually cave in on itself?

Live In Such A Way…

This image is from my Words to Live By Calendar. It’s the featured quote for March.

I looked up at it today and it sparked a thought. Sometimes you live, “in such a way,” but despite your best efforts they still talk and when we receive these criticisms, it can be a sharp blow. Your thoughts start to wonder:
