Alright, well, I started my new job. I work for Joyce Meyer Ministries in the Call Center. I take calls from all her partners, donations, orders, answer questions, etc and I pray with people that need prayer and then specifically pray with people that call into our prayer line 2 hours out of the day. It's great! I still love my job and I have been there over a month now. It's amazing to work with people that love the Lord. In our meetings, everything starts in prayer and everything ends in the call to pray for whatever it is that we talked about. When people have a stressed phone call, they pray. When there is a problem about the computers, we pray. We talk about the Lord all the time....that's the best part. I am surrounded by believers and I've made some great friends too! It was mind-blowing at first, bc I wasn't used to being in constant fellowship. People read their Bibles in between phone calls and everything! It's awesome! That doesn't mean that it's not a job. That doesn't mean that we sit around and pray in tongues all day, and talk about how great the Lord is....but it does mean that in all that we do, we give glory and honor to our King and give Him the best work of our hands possible. It's a job that's a ministry. That's the bottom line. It isn't just a job and it isn't just a ministry. I love it all in all and I am blessed to work there. That has been a constant thought in my mind.....I am blessed. Dave and Joyce really take care of their employees. So, now you're updated on the job situation. Let's move on . . . .
I'M GETTING MARRIED! Oh boy! God is the coolest ever! Chad Trost asked for my hand in marriage on Oct 15, 2006 and I sqealed "YES!" (about 3 times, just to make sure that he heard me!) He took me back to the very spot that we had our first date. It was beautiful and it was so tender. It was good to see him get so nervous and so giddy! And the ring........oh my goodness! Sometimes it's still hard for me to believe that life is really like this. A single mom can really be Cinderella and God (not a fairy god-mother) still works all things out for the good of those that love Him and are called according to His purpose. I serve a God like that?! In spite of myself, He loves me and is my good Daddy who wants to give me good things from the Heavenly lights above!
So, even now as I write this, we are 58 days away from the wedding and I'm freakin' getting antsy! It has become increasingly difficult to leave him at the end of the day and everyone tells me that it's supposed to be that way and that it's a good sign, blah, blah, blah....but God is helping us out. That's all I can give you for now, but just keep praying if you feel led. I know that God hears it and answers accordingly....otherwise without prayer, this entire post wouldn't exist.
