Ok- another bad day.... this time at work. I got in trouble... my boss is not happy with me. Needless to say- I have not been at the top of my game these last 4 weeks--- and she is right....however I think it was a real dig to say she hasn't been happy with me for 6 1/2 years t.... but anyway... I am going to try to hold my head up and learn from the experience.
John Hagee has been preaching on "The Promise, The Problem and The Provision". I am trying to learn from this message. The backbone of the message that is hitting home with me right now is that how we respond to the problem =how long we have to STAY in the problem! I have laughingly said that I have spent 40 years in the desert ( like the Israelites ) ( I turn 40 in May) and come May 24th I am going to the PROMISE LAND!!!! ( God, it really IS ok if that happens BEFORE 5/24.... BUT anyway that is a goal!
I never seem to be able to sink into my pit with just ONE issue-- God always seems to allow things to fall apart on all fronts at one time. When Craig left the ??? time ( I've lost count and NOW it really IS MOOT!!!) not only did I lose my marriage, file for divorce, my grandmother get deathly ill AND lose my job all in Feb.-- so it was a HUGE pit-- and things did not stop there---little did I know that that was just the beginning!!
That was then and this is now... I am not going to EVEN begin to compare those 2 times in my life-- BECAUSE I REFUSE TO GO BACK TO THAT AWFUL PLACE WITH SO MUCH DESPAIR!!! I know that there is a reason... and I know that thru the fire I will come out stronger in HIM. I also know that CRAIG CLIFTON did not and WILL NOT destroy me and neither will this job!! I enjoy my work- and I WILL excel-- not sure how -- but I CAN DO ALL THINGS THRU CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS ME!!!!
