Answered Prayers
« on: May 15, 2013, 03:14:50 AM »
We have all seen the prayers getting answered.  Ubars health is on a slow but steady improvement.  Family is becoming reunited again.  Family members are being blessed with Jobs and financial needs are being met.   

I did something totally crazy ( ok well maybe not that crazy for the herder babe).  I started to work overnight on the stock crew at walmart.  During all this time and some divine intervention from Above,  I was approached by a person who is a senior person in a local company.  He didn't ask, He demanded my resume because it seems that some of the ones that I have grown very close to have bragged about my skills in the kitchen.  ( mutters a little on that one).   Long story short version I have just been hired as a manager trainee to eventually head my own deli/bakery in a local food chain stores.  It means No over night shifts, eventually after training 40 hours a week, retirement plan, health and dental  and vision benefits and an employee stock option from the moment I go full time.  The money isn't drastic but it is a raise from what I was making.  It will give me the ability to take care of my husband and to be supportive of my family and also allows me to continue in Ministry that I have been called to.

I guess what I want to say is Prayers do get answered,  and sometimes when you least freaking expect them too.

Oh man.   GOD really does have a weird way of throwing a curve ball at me when I'm least expecting it... I got called for another job interview this morning.. same company. different division.  There is now a second job offer on the table.... Salaried  Manager over a small  pizzeria/deli in a local convenience chain store.  It will mean working minimum of 50 hours per week. Pretty much same package as far as insurance 401k and employee stock option plan.  This will put about 2 grand a month extra into my home if I accept. the big thing.. the store they are offering,  is a mile from my front door.. 

Pray for me as I make the decision on these offers.

Thanks. the Herder Babe

Well this is how this all went down.   had the second interview with the other division.  then got a phone call from the first job offer and they wanted to re interview me.   so a third interview with them.  I got completely stressed out and so did my husband with all of this.  So we slowed down.  We prayed.  We realized that we were obsessing over the money.  If this is the job that God had meant for us then we were going to take it because lets face it with God  the money never makes sense.    once we both came to that agreement.  within 20 minutes the second division called me back  and made the offer..... we had discussed what we would need as far as money goes( 26k per year to start) and what we were going to ask for (27.5 k ).  The offer I was present was 27,300 per year to start.  I will have insurance within 30 days.  I will have what my family needs to support and strengthen us.  Yes its 50 hours a week but then again I put that in doing other crap too.  Answered Prayers

well... God's done it again... Nick and I have been agonizing about what to do about our financial situation since He had the third heart attack.    We have prayed and just decided that Gods will be done on all fronts.  God has since provided us with a house... close to 5 acres of land.. and currently a donkey.   Its Nicks grandmothers home an the house where he grew up.   Now granted we have a TON of work to do to make it livable thanks to an idiot family member that is an addict, but it can and will be done.  I've always dreamed of a little white country farm house... and now God has provided it.  I've lost from a size 20w to a size 16w in all of this. 

SO I guess the moral of this story is,   When you pray and you ask, God answers in his timing. 



Now to figure out this whole donkey issue...   I think I shall call him Ebenezer.
