"If your Bible is falling apart, chances are your life isn't"

One of my favorite quotes stated above. Well, life is different. I am here at TCC now, my family is stranya, and money is ochen tight. However, the over past few weeks I have been reminded of God's faithfulness . I have been praying for a job, as well as joy throughout this trial(s). God has blessed me through cat-sitting, and book selling. Between the two, I have made $400 in two weeks. Amazing. I should, better yet, we should never doubt Him. Father has also reminded me of a verse in Matthew (forgive me for not giving the exact verse), talking about God taking care of all the birds in the air, and I am worth far more than many sparrows. How much truth is in that scripture! Well, I think I may have a job now, its not 100% but I find out Monday, if I do well. I am beginning to see the amazingness of all of this. I am now a Sunday school teacher of toddlers, and I am meeting random people at places, and talking to people I haven't spoken to/seen since High school. I know God has a purpose for me here, and everything else going on in my life. I miss DBU and friends, but I can visit hopefully soon. Even though it seems lonely here at times, I talked to an old friend I am getting re- acquainted today, and he told me loneliness is something he prayed for, and its giving him a chance to spend more time in the word and with Father. I would have never thought to pray for that, but now I see the opportunities its bringing. I am getting excited about it. Thank you Father for everything, even if it seems hard, and its not what I had planned. Your plan is good and perfect, and not used for harm. (Romans 8:28). Your ways are higher than mine, and so are your thoughts (Isaiah 55). Thank you.
