As I said in my last post, I was offered two full time jobs this week. What's even more amazing is that after I posted, I was contacted about a part-time job that I had accepted back in November, but the company experienced some set-backs and is just now ready to open. So I had THREE jobs offered to me this week!!! I am just blown away. What's even more astounding- both of the full-time jobs were offered to me without my sending in an application! One was with my former employer, and the other was sent my way by the same source. God gave this especially to me... and words simply cannot describe how that makes me feel. I am SO thankful.
I know you're all wanting to know, so I'll tell you that I did verbally accept a job on Friday! YAY!! Now I'm just waiting to hear from HR to make it official and go over all the little details. It's at a brand new clinic, so I'll be with them from the ground up as a core member of the team. Things will go slowly at first, so in addition to doing x-ray, I'll be cross-trained to do casting and registrar. As more doctors join and the clinic grows, things will pick up. The drive to work will be a little longer than I'm used to, but the hours are great: Monday-Friday 8-5, no weekends (praise the Lord!!!) and no holidays! I'm very excited to have this opportunity to learn some new skills and to grow with the company! *insert big cheesy grin* Thank you all SO much for your prayers!!!
Today we had our 4th annual Ladies Conference at our church. Our theme this year was "He Sees the Sparrow", so there were bird and garden themed decorations all around the church. (I really meant to take pictures, but today was busy, and I forgot my memory card in my camera last night. So sorry!) There were bird houses, nests, eggs, bird-baths, greenery, flowers, and of course, little birdies everywhere! Very cute!! Our speaker was Kay Chandler, and as always, she was such a blessing. My mommy went with me, and we had a lovely time. We sang, we laughed, we ate (of course), I even won a door-prize- a cute little indoor fountain/waterfall thingy, and we talked about God. In the morning session, we talked about keeping our eyes on God- about His names and what each means:
Elohim: our Creator, who made each of us with a purpose.
El Elyon: the most high God, who is in control of the universe and is our refuge.
El Roi: God who sees, and knows all our heartaches and troubles.
El Shaddai: the all sufficient One, who pours out Himself for us who believe.
Then in the afternoon, we talked about how God's eyes are on us, on our "secret sins", of our spiritual walk (or lack thereof), of the tongue (lying, gossip, a critical spirit, profanity), and of the heart (jealousy, bitterness, anger, an unforgiving spirit).
It was a very encouraging yet humbling time, and a great reminder of exactly how well God knows us, and just how much He cares about us. His love is limitless.
Luke 12:6-7
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
YAY! Congrats!! :)
