Success!

When everything works out it is easy to wonder why we ever stressed in the first place. God provides. God always has a way of everything working out.

With that said. Life updates. Brent is in Vaughan. He has a month to month lease on a room. Huge answer to prayer. Brent is able to put in as many hours as he wants, which results in him keeping busy and being able to make a fair bit of money. Brent got a raise. (Europe soon anyone!?!). These are all areas that God has provided more then we could even dream.

I have been blessed spending the past week babysitting my wonderful niece. To be honest, I love babysitting. I love finding new things to do each day and keeping super busy while having fun. Last week I got a call, an answer to prayer in so many ways. I got the job at the library! I will be starting October 29th 30th (thanks to not being able to get my police check done without getting my license changed), which is also wonderful because I will be able to spend another week babysitting and moving into the apartment.

Speaking of the apartment is another wonderful way God has provided. We were able to find a place to move into on such short notice. The rent is manageable even when Brent's room rent is taken into consideration and the location is safe and close to almost everything I need. I am so thankful to be back in Chatham even with Brent being 4 hours away, I feel like I am home and it feels great.

So I am going to try and remember this next time I stress over what life may hold, and I know I will stress. I always stress its the way I am. But next time I do, I plan to instead go to God in prayer and remember that it may not be my plan, or how I want it to work out, but that God will work it out in the long run.

Matthew 6:25-27  “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?  Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?"
