I have a job at a group home. This last year I have been tested beyond tested. I have almost walked out a few times. I didnt know how much longer I could hold on. I really didnt.
I am a christian. I believe that God wont give me more than I can handle. I believe that He is there for me always. I pray everyday. BUT I was starting to question Him. I would pray everyday at work that I could make it through. I prayed that I wouldnt kill someone. He had stopped me from walking out. And through the many drives home that I cried the whole 45 mins I could feel his arm around me saying "just a little bit longer" and I would say "God how much longer?"
Jan31st I recieved a phone call that changed my whole world. As soon as I got off the phone a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I cried that night as I prayed to God thanking Him for this opportunity. I cant really say too much about it right now. But I know this is where I want to be. I know that I will have great joy going to work everyday. I know that God designed this job just for me. and I know that I will give it my all. Its going to be alittle difficult at first but I know I can do it. So please pray for me as I start this new adventure. I am very excited about it!
