Thankful Thursday letter

Dear Lord,
Thank You for blessing me with the new job and going the extra mile to get me training in Phoenix instead of Cleveland! I am overwhelmed with your goodness! Most importantly, thank You for Your grace, which I do not deserve. I have never deserved anything good yet You give generously. Thank You!

Flowers

The smell. The sight. The touch. Flowers are relaxing and rejuvenating. Did you have a tough day or rough week? A little treat for flowers can pick you up. Try it!

On a side note, most things have settled down here. I have family visiting and it's a huge blessing.

Change is a slow process

Change is a slow and steady process, akin to the speed of a walking turtle. Change is slow and steady.

I keep hoping and expecting that suddenly things will change. Suddenly getting things done will be easy. Doing what I want to do instead of have to do can be a new reality. We are not there yet. Everyday I have a little hope that things will change. Its a very small tiny amount of hope. Sadly, I don't have enough hope to share. I go through rough patches where I can't even see the little hope that is there. The pressure of life gets to be too heavy.

Dear Lord, I am where I am supposed to be. Can you please make life a little easier? I need Your blessing to get a better paying job. On my own, nothing can be accomplished. Please help. Amen.

Life lessons from the piano

1: Its hard to remember to sit up straight when in the middle of the song. I know I need to do it and I remember at the beginning and the end.

2: Practice is important because you can't wing a recital. I can't remember the song unless I keep practicing it.

3: Music should be shared. I always get great joy from sharing my music and my knowledge with others. I am preparing to accept new students so I can pay it forward.

4: Music is a blessing and everyone who listens gets a little piece of it.

Staying strong

Today’s rating is Positive.

I have made it through another day of work and I wore the red shiny heals. I have only Friday to get through and then finally family comes home. Permanently. It will be a blessing and I will be able to close this stressful chapter of my life. Thank you friends, family and Lord for being my support. There’s no way I could have been successful without all the support and assistance.

What a worry...

Today’s rating is Positive.

I haven’t heard about the job and its gotten me pretty worked up. I have been listening to Klove and I heard a great story about how a cancelled meeting meant a family of ten could have a nice dinner. Somehow the mistake was even more of a blessing with two extra pieces of chicken for two extra children for that specific meal.

If God can provide for that family, I know God can provide for me. Its so hard to be patient and wait for God’s timing. God has blessed us with a lovely apartment. Now I am praying to find the right company to rent my home. I am praying for the right job to come to me. Thank you God for your blessings even when I can’t see it!
