I feel overwhelmed with a sense of well-being and peace knowing that God loves me no matter what. Grace is a good thing. Its not an excuse to sin. However, it is a confidence knowing that God loves me no matter how high the pile of shambles become in my life. The shambles don't shock or scare him. He is used to dealing with all the misfits and welcomes them fully into his arms.
Shortly after I got to work, my supervisor pulled me aside and told me I was being promoted. Does that want to make anyone else's head spin with amazement? Ironically, I had sent her an email just a few days ago asking her to consider me if there were any opportunities for additional hours. In my email, I also thanked her for extending grace to me and for making Macy's a safe place for me. I couldn't help but start crying. Apparently, she hadn't read her email, so I had to give her a recap about how much she and my job have meant to me the last couple of months. Its been my refuge in a very difficult life. This promotion, in my opinion, was God's way of letting me know HE heard my prayers. I don't have to leave Macy's. Praise you Jesus. Thank you for speaking to me last night in whispers and for speaking to me today in a very loud shout to tell me that you love me and that you have not abandoned me no matter how shamble-filled my life seems to be to everyone else. God is so good to this undeserving servant.
Please restore my home, Lord. I know you are able to work miracles in my life.
