| I need prayer to find a good job. I am currently working at a small Marketing Firm and money situations are bad. My boss gambles and has made many bad decisions with money. I have been applying to many different jobs in the area and have heard nothing back from any of them. I really just want to know what God wants me to do. I will continue to put out my resume and pray. I hate to put a time clock on the new job but I really need to find one soon. So I guess, pray for wisdom for me, to know what to do. Pray that a good job will open up, a job that I can work myself up in the company. And pray that my faith will increase during this time.
Thanks guys! |

| You mentioned this to me in our phone conversation like 8 years ago...lol. Kidding about the amount of time, but we do need to link up soon.
I'll be keeping you in prayer about this situation, bro.

Love causes us to seek truth and share that truth with others so that we become more unified. God is truth, and as we are more acquainted with His truth, the closer we are to Him, and the closer we become to each other |

| Let me give you a little back ground. My boss has spent all of the money we have coming in till July. She gambles and owes alot of people money. I had a paycheck bounce in December and she told me yesterday that she didn't have enough money to cover this check that she gave me and told me to hold it for a little while (which is hard because my bills don't wait for her to pay me). There is no more money there. So in December I stepped my game up and really started looking hard for another job. Here we are two months later and I haven't heard back from one. I know the Lord will supply my needs. I just need wisdom, to know what to do and favor, to find a new job.
As I talked with my boss yesterday she told me that I should be looking for a new job because she don't know if she will be able to pay me. So I need something to open up quick. Well, that is the story and I will keep you updated.
Thank you to all that are praying for me. I really need it. |

| It has been awhile and I wanted to give an update. On Wednesday I started a job with Boeing in the IT Department. This is a true blessing from God. For those that don't know, I have been working at a rebar fabrication shop for the past 3 months while I was looking for another job. It wasn't a great job but it gave me the opportunity to share with those working there about Jesus. God is really good and has placed me at Boeing now for a reason. IT is not what I went to school for but God is in control and I am thankful for a good job with alot of opportunity. Again thanks to all of you that have been praying for me. It means alot!
I hope to be posting more, now that I have a regular job.
Grace and Peace
