WELL HERE I GO. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT SO THIS WILL PROBABLY RAMBLE. AS I SAID IN MY PROFILE I AM A TRANSPLANTED MICHIGANDER...BORN AND RAISED. I MOVED TO MISSISSIPPI IN OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR BECAUSE MY HUSBAND FOUND WORK DOWN HERE IN GULFPORT....THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PART OF THE GULF COAST WORKING HARD AT RECOVERING STILL FROM HURRICANE KATRINA.
MY HUSBAND WAS OUT OF WORK FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS HAVING NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A JOB IN MICHIGAN ( BEING 54 ) WITH A LOT OF PRAYER WE OPENED THE AREA TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE U.S AND WITHIN TWO DAYS HE RECIEVED AN OFFER FOR AN INTERVIEW WITH A NATIONAL COMPANY. HE WENT FOR THE INTERVIEW AND THEN WE WAITED..............FINALLY HE WAS CALLED FOR A SECOND INTERVIEW AND WE WAITED........................SEVERAL WEEKS LATER WE WER TOLD HE WOULD GET THE JOB IN GULFPORT, MISS. WE WERE HAPPY ABOUT FINALLY HAVING WORK
BUT THEN WE HAD TO TELL OUR AGING PARENTS AND OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN ( THIS WAS NOT FUN ). THE ONLY THING THAT GOT US THROUGH WERE THE PRAYERS OF SO MANY FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES....WE DECIDED TO GO INTO THIS WITH A POSITIVE ADDITUDE AND TRUST THAT GOD WHO KNOWS THE PLANS HE HAS FOR US WOULD LEAD US TO WHERE HE WANTS US TO BE.
YESTERDAY IN MY DEVOTIONS I WAS READING PSALMS 139:1-6 AND ONCE AGAIN IT BROUGHT TO MIND THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!!
THE VERSE GOES.. O LORD, YOU HAVE SEARCHED ME AND YOU KNOW ME. YOU KNOW WHEN I SIT DOWN AND WHEN I RISE UP; YOU SCRUTINIZE MY PATH AND MY LYING DOWN AND ARE AQUAINTED WITH ALL MY WAYS. BEFORE A WORD IS ON MY TONGUE, O LORD, YOU KNOW IT COMPLETELY. YOU HAVE ENCLOSED ME BEHIND AND BEFORE, AND LAID YOUR HAND UPON ME. SUCH KNOWLEDGE IS TOO WONDERFUL FOR ME; IT IS TOO LOFTY FOR ME TO ATTAIN....
SO HERE I AM IN MISSISSIPPI AND GOD IS STILL GOD HE IS STILL IN CONTROL!!!!!
I AM BEGINNING THIS NEW ADVENTURE AS A BLOGGER ( WRITER I AM NOT ) AND AM HOPING TO MEET NEW FRIENDS AND MAYBE EVEN BE ABLE TO INFLUENCE SOMEONES LIFE LORD WILLING. THANKS FOR LISTENING. SANDY
