Wrap Up

Well, I am finished officially with my training and assessments at the University of Phoenix. It has been three very long and hard weeks of study, and I am happy to report that I passed all my certification exams! I also got to meet my new manager, and I found out a bit more about my new job (location, team members, etc.). I am very excited to start working with students, and to finally get to setup my desk. I may need to do some shopping before Monday, just to pick up some fun things for my cubby. I can add a plant, and decorate the inside of my space the way I like it. I am blessed, so very blessed. God is so very good to me.

On other fronts (can there be more than one front -- I guess so -- I remember my WWII history!!), I am waiting to find out what the Lord has in mind for my home. As of today, I know the following:

• I am gainfully employed, having received my very first real FT paycheck (it's been 20 years) today
• I have the schedule of His choosing, M-F from 6-3
• I am in the region and product of His choosing as well -- Northeast and Healthcare/Nursing
• I am ready to embark on my new career, and I am excited to be on my way finally to new places, new opportunities, and new ways of learning
• I am content to wait for the Lord to bring me everything I need to move forward
• I know that His will is done, and that my life is following His plan as He has perfected it
• I am so good, and I love that He is Good -- together everything is GOOD!

There are still some pretty big unknowns right now, but generally, they are items that I cannot control anyway. I am content to let things be, to let God do what God wants to do, and to rest in His provision and care. I know EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT FOR MY GOOD, AND HIS WILL, AND HIS GOOD PLEASURE. I am happy, I am blessed, and I am so very, very, very content.

Dear Lord,

I am resting in your care, and trusting in your Name. I know you will lead me through the coming weeks, and you will change my life to suit your plans and your will. I am content for this to be, so I let it go right now. I let go of everything, and I lay back in your arms of strength, and I rejoice in the knowledge that You are God alone. May your Name be praised forever more! Amen, so be it, thy will be done! God is so very Good to me! Praise be to God.
