Its been a week since I last wrote and I keep putting it off. Last blog you'll remember me babbling on and on about this great job offer and how its so incredible how God works. Well me and my big mouth . God isn't wonderful He is unbelievably wonderful and awesome. Maybe not in my timing but in His. As you know I was supposed to meet last week about the job. Due to circumstances that couldn't be helped and others that could , the meeting has been cancelled a total of four times. Yes I was tweaking by the latest cancellation. I of course would never bellyache or complain about the cancelled meetings. Ha I gave having a fit a new meaning..... not really but I did get upset. So the two bosses called me yes you heard correctly, the bosses called me. Not sure why but it definitely helped my wounded spirit. They explained about sales and demands that they have to meet and scheduling being a complete nightmare for them . Basically told me to be patient. ... They told me that my job is already secured and a check is waiting for me when we meet. Also they had just purchased a new car for me . So now I have to scrape myself back up off the floor, since I had melted down in embarrassment. : ) My mouth is still hanging open , but I'm happy. Now I'm not only going to work on showrooms and warehouses I will also be building some sort of house /mansion. I guess its going to be very large and extravagant. Those are the most fun to build and oversee.
Now here I am sheepishly thanking the Lord that he is making such an unbelievable job available to me. I had been waiting , struggling, praying , not praying , feeling depressed , and feeling happiness when God revealed His love to me . Where to go ? I just wait at this point , so I'm sitting back thinking about the future
I thought about what God has been doing in my life . Everytime I would struggle with the Lord about giving up some part of my life, and how difficult it is for me to let go. Now some of the things I was having problems with ,seem so ridiculous. Like my car I'm not real sure if I'm getting anything out of it. I could be really upset about it. I was to begin with. Then I prayed and said Lord its your car you take it and I will not worry. What did I get out of it. Well lets see. Got an unbelievable job to start that has the much needed health insurance, I got a new car , one that I really like. And a boss that will fill my tank for me as needed. Wow seems like a lot . Right?
The story keeps going, today I got a call from my old boss . I didn't answer but he left me a message . Basically he told me that for the money he owed me and the situation he was in, he wanted me to come down to San Fran and pickup all the tools from the shop where I worked. You have to understand these are industrial tools and have prices that match. He said that would even us up for a bunch of money I thought I would never see again. I never even thought for a minute there would be any way he could repay me .Yet God in His wonderful way takes care of absolutely everything. But first He wanted my love and my fully surrendered life. I am completely amazed at what God is doing . A little scared wondering whats around the next corner but feel safe in His care. I feel I need to get down on my knees and ask God to forgive me for being such a whiner. And being so impatient. God's timing is perfect, as life unfolds God reveals His will one day at a time. Only what I need each day. If I can learn that and stop trying to do God's job for Him life will be so much simpler for me.
Crazy day, crazy week , but an awesome and wonderful, loving God. Until next time
That's wonderful, Galen! We're happy at what God is doing for you. This will be such an encouragement to many others who are waiting on God to answer prayers.

Hello Galen I think I might have hit pay dirt. If you know what I mean.... I decided to try this because of my cousin and there you were!
