So after a terribly dramatic day yesterday, I woke up feeling a little better. As soon as I brought myself out of bed I quickly reached for that devotional trust and I began to read the introduction. In a nut shell it began to explain why women fear and it all boiled down to the fact that we don't believe He is good, and we don't open up completely to Him. After reading this and really feeling like I understood some of the reasons I was having a difficult time with trusting Him, I began to pray, and I prayed for everything, for change, for comfort, peace, knowledge, and most of all trust, trusting that He will provide for me just as long as I put my earthy concerns aside.
Then after some more job searching, I received a call form the Hotel that I had applied to, and I have an interview tomorrow! On another positive note, I received information about an internship in DC, that I would love to have, it seems like such an amazing opportunity and will hopefully give me some real life experience as the job market begins to pick up again. The internship is pretty competitive and I only have a week to get references together and answer questions, and submit a writing sample. Even though if I got an opportunity such as this it would take me away from my family, and Chris, I feel like it is a once in a lifetime opportunity and that I should take advantage of it and at least apply. If the answer is no, then I know that, that was not what God had planned for , but if it is a yes then I know that he will make something amazing happen with it. So for the next few days I will be like a busy college student again, writing, editing and polishing this application so that it is perfect to send in. Wish me luck and say a prayer for God's will.
I also just have to say what a wonderful father I have, my dad is great. I don't know how many times I have called him over these past few weeks, either asking for advice, crying, or simply venting. He is so wonderful because he is so invested in my future and my career and he only wants the best for me, and for me to simply be happy. I can not even begin to describe the important role he has played in my life. He is truly a wonderful gift from God, and God certainly knew what he was doing when he made him my father.
On a side note, I heard ice cream bells outside the apartment, and took off running, only to make it to the front door with my wallet realizing I had no cash. I felt like such a kid, but I am heading to the bank and will be prepared should he come by tomorrow. There is just something about summer time and hearing the bells of the ice cream man! Now after all this ice cream talk I think I am due for some!hope everyone's Tuesday has been a blessing! Mine sure has. :)
all my love,
