Next Up in My Life - A Story of God's Provision

Well, my life has shifted around a bit in the last month. One month ago I was living with my parents, had no job, and had less than $100 in my bank account. Today, I'm living out on my own, I have two jobs, and let's just say I'm blessed. :) This is a story of God's provision.

August 31, 2012 - I have no way of paying my September rent. Unless I get a job I'm going to be living with my parents. Today is the last day I have in SoCal to wait for a call. Then, at 5 pm, I get a call for a screening for a medical study. Doesn't seem likely that I'll get it, but I figure I'll go for it anyways. Then, at 10 pm, I get a call offering me a job as well as free room and board. But at this point, I need to go move in with my parents anyways to figure stuff out.



From that point until now, a few things have happened.

  • I got the medical study. This meant a few weeks in confinement, but a HUGE replenishment to my bank account. Thanks God!
  • I accepted the job and the free room and board. Thanks God!
  • I interviewed for another job, one working at Disney, and was offered the job ( I took it!)
Now here I am. I have one job teaching kids at a school in Palm Desert, another job working as a Cast Member at Disneyland on the weekends, and a full bank account. Earlier this summer, I was expecting to get a well-paying job that I may not have liked all that much. Now, God has given me two awesome jobs as well as plenty of money. I spent the whole summer working on finding the job that I thought was right for me, but little did I know that God had other, much better plans. Seriously, my life is awesome! God always comes through, even if it's at the last possible second. (Ten pm on the last day before I moved out after 8 months of job hunting was pretty last minute!) Trust God, because He sure knows what's best for you even better than you think you do!
