Blessings

For a while, I had been working very little and people were telling me that I should look for a different job so that I could get more money.....when I started my current job, I was losing 75 cents an hour.

Then Spring break happened at the beginning of the month and I was worried how small my check was going to be...but when I came back from my week vacation to one of my grandma's houses I was shocked to see my hours increased. I thought at first it was because I was gone for the week and it was to balance out my check so it wouldn't be super small. But ever since then, I have been working over 30 hours a week (with my 14 units of school) and although hectic....I have been able to do it...and I am very thankful that I am able to get more money for my move and transfer to Northwest Nazarene University.

Father God, I pray and thank you for giving me the extra hours so that I have enough money to move and do the things that you want me to do. Father I pray that you bless my family and keep them strong as I move away and I pray that you keep me strong so that I don't get to the point of getting so homesick that I move back home and abandon the calling you have for me. Thank you for everything you have done, the encouraging, EVERYTHING. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Easter (Spring) Break

I had one of the best times in a LONG time and I was able to get away from my house and from work for a whole week!! (I'm not trying to brag.) I was able to go to my grandmother's house (the grandma in California)....I am SO glad that I was able to spend an entire week with her, because it was my last opportunity to spend all that time with her before my moveto Idaho. And I was able to spend some time with my cousin Wyatt, who I haven't spend quality time in many years. ;)

This was a very blessed weekend for me and I pray now that I don't get insane with the HUGE increase in hours at work.
