Choices

So today is the day I start my new job!

I'm excited and sad at the same time.

I have enjoyed staying home with the boys and spending this summer with them but I am ready to be back in the workforce. Ready to met new people and start something new.

But yesterday left me with many choices to make.

I got home from taking the boys to the movies and there were two messages on my answering machine.

The first one from my new employer, only a different department. Asking me to come in and interview to another position I had applied for. I had actually applied for two positions that were available.

I graciously turned it down, when I called back. Explaining that I had already taken another job in another department. She said she was sorry I wasn't interviewing with her but excited I would be on the campus.

The second message was for another interview for a position that I really want more than the one I accepted.

So I called that one back and scheduled the interview.

I have prayed so hard for this and ask God so many times to open this door.

And if don't get it, then I have a job, one that I think I will like. One with a future.

But if I do get it, WOO HOO!!! Because this one also has a great future!

But the bottom line is no matter where I land, God answered my prayers.

All I have ever prayed through out this experience. Is for God to take care of me and my family. To show me all the open doors, to lead me in the right direction, to place me where He knows I will prosper.

Thank you God for loving me and guiding me. For showing me you had me in the palm of your hand the entire time. You showed me all the time that you were answering my prayers.

Once again Lord, thank you!

Girl! Do I feel your pain or what? I went through the same thing a couple of months ago, where I was offered another job at another firm, and then my boss just begged me not to go.

I decided to stay where I am, and I have not regretted it at all!

You will know the right situation and the way I look at it, it is a WIN WIN situation!

I am so happy for you that this has all worked out, but we knew it would. After all, GOD is in control!! Have a great first day and let me know how the interview goes!!

Oh, I just love how God works. In ways that are WAY beyond our comprehension, right? I will pray that the best thing happens with the other interview and you feel at peace. I love your attitude! Love it so much!
