In The Lord’s Hands

Peaceful seems to fit right now.  I really felt the comfort of the Spirit today.  I turned in my application to HR and immediately thought that it was now in the Lord’s hands.  And this time, I think I’m truly beginning to have faith in the Lord.  Faith that things will work out as they’re meant to, whether that means I get this position or not.  I’ve felt better emotionally today than I have in probably two weeks.  I think on a lot of levels, this is a test of my faith and especially my faith in Heavenly Father, as there are outcomes here that I really don’t like.  But I’m doing my part (submitting an application to HR) and leaving the rest to Heavenly Father, trusting that He’ll take care of me and where I’m supposed to be.  I’m  not nearly so anxious about what will happen at work.  For the first time, I think I truly understand what it means to put my trust in the Lord and let things work out as they will.  All in all, I’m feeling better about work.  I don’t like the option of a second shift phone team any more than I did before, but I’m trusting my Heavenly Father to lead me to where I need to be.  I guess I’ve realized if I’m go live the gospel, I have to live all of it – I can’t pick and choose what I will and won’t do.  That’s not how it works.  So for me right now that means truly putting my faith in the Lord, rather than just talking about it and making a show of doing so.  He knows if I’ve put my faith in Him, no matter what I may say.  He knows where my heart truly lies. 

And I just have to mention I’m up to 51 straight days of writing with this entry.  7 weeks + two days 🙂
