Just Hanging Out
I feel that I have been hung out to dry.
But I have been having some sobering thoughts. I don't know if they are thoughts from God, but the thoughts come more frequently as I work to stay in constant communion with God. The thought from the ride home yesterday, "Is all the crap that's happening to me at work a sign from God that I should leave, or is it the enemy working against me to keep me from doing the will of God in my workplace?"
This thought had such an impact on my thinking about my job. So, the whole way home last night, I asked God, "what's the plan? What in the world is going on in my life?" No answer. Don't you just love God? He has inclined His ear and heard my cry, but where's all this business about putting my feet on solid ground to stand? Right now, I feel blown about by the wind. I have no clue whether I'm in His will or out of His will. Perhaps, I should just stand. My prayer yesterday was that God would expedite His plan.
I know that You have this worked out, but please come quickly! How much longer must I suffer Lord? Send an angel, send Your Holy Spirit, just please protect me from my enemies. You know my heart and you know my joys. I pray that you would create the perfect position for me at my current place or wherever you want me. Thank you, Lord, for your mercies. Lord, make me have a good day today. Convict me if evil talk comes out of my mouth and convict my mind if I have negative thoughts. I pray that today will be my best day with you yet. Have Your way in me today, Lord, as I seek to become more like Your son.

Hang in there Nic. You are just one step away from a blessing. You and Jason really need some time away from it all. I know you've had a LOT on your plate lately, and the house is only the tip of the iceburg. It's a tiring season, but relief is right in front of you. You're doing just fine!
love you,
Amy
Keep your head up Nicky. I will be praying for you. It's never any fun waiting to find out where your life is headed. God has a plan and will pull you through. Just think, you will be able to look back some day (some day soon, I hope) and say...look what God has brought me through.
