I just wanted to share with everyone who has read my posts over the past couple of weeks in which I have been faced with much hardship in abusive situations with my employer, my daughter, my ex husband..... As some of you know, my doctor has even kept me off work until this coming Monday so that I can get myself grounded essentially. These two weeks-- although extremely painful and tiring brought me to FINALLY realize what I am to do with my life and feel good about it.
Since 1996, I've had a calling from God-- that I always had no doubt. Since he saved me from an abusive marriage, helping me discover Him accidentally actually, as I had never even believed in God. However, I wasn't certain what the calling was, as I didn't want to work with children (even though I do love children) and I couldn't imagine myself as a Pastor..... Well, the working with children ministries is still correct, as I don't see myself doing that-- However, I do see myself pursuing minister studies and becoming a Pastor. :) It came to me this week. I have realized although so successful in this profession that I very much love to work in of Information Technology as Computer Tech/Network Administrator that it isn't God's plan for my life. THAT is the reason all the jobs I have never work out and each time it brings me back to Him calling me to service for Him. I've pushed it away in the past (the part about being a Pastor) because like I said, I couldn't see myself being one. However, realized now these past two weeks-- THAT'S IT and I feel REALLY good about it.
God willing, I will begin my pursuit. Thanks to all of you who share your hearts with everyone, as I believe that having been a part of this board, listening to all the pain, as well as encouragment from people who experience or have experienced so much turmoil in their life has contributed to the direction I am choosing. My autobiography I began writing in 1996 is titled Coincidence Or Not, A Book Of Hope and I hope to be able to share that with everyone soon.
May God continue to bless each of you by offering strength and comfort in the midst of your heartaches and or successes.
Life is a journey,it sounds like you are getting ready to take the road less traveled. I pray you have a wonderful experience. Good does come from bad, I have lived it for many years.God bless and keep you.
