The Many Transitions

After alittle over a year of having a nanny who cooks for us, she moved on because Mui is ready for Pre-school.  Due to my job situation, we have not enrolled in a pre-school yet.  So she is now going to day care.  We were spoiled by not having to cook for so long.  Now we are cooking again and we spend our nights cutting and prepping food for the next day.   We are thankful that my mom and dad have been bring us soup and food.  After graduation, I thought I would have more time to do nothing or craft things.  Haven't had time to do those things yet.

My job have been stressful and emotionally painful, so I have been wanting to quit for some time now.  I pray for God's guidance and it seems that leaving is the best thing for the family.  The time has finally come for me to submit my resignation.  Monday will be a new chapter in my career when I resign.  I don't have another job yet, so I am a little anxious about what the future holds. But lately, in my time with the Lord, my spirit is comforted that He, the maker of the universe, will take care of me and has my best interest in mind.  I have to have faith and trust in His faithfulness.  I have been applying for jobs on Craigslist since August, but no respond.  The hard part is that I am looking for a part time job and not a full time job.  Everyday as I look at job postings, I get more and more discouraged.  I can't believe that with all my education, no one wants to give me a part time job.  Reading the book Crazy Love, has reminded me that my God is a BIG and POWERFUL GOD.  I believe in a God that created the universe, from the small speck of dust to the galaxy.  He made the caterpillar that turns into a butterfly and our bodies that heal itself.  So how can getting me a job that fits into my family life be a difficult thing for Him?  Recently, I had two interviews.  One didn't go so well and may not be a good match and the other went well.  The second one told me that I had an impressive resume and that I had the skills people want.  Although I don't have an official offer yet, what a confident booster that is!  God knew that I needed that and He knew just went to give it to me.  I truly believe that it is NOT my education or my skills that are impressive, but it God's blessings upon me.  I know by my own merit, I cannot achieve anything.  It is through His grace and mercy that have what I have.
