His Grace and Mercy


Hey Guys!!
So…here’s my update! Life has gone through so many changes!! I quit my job! I’ll be honest, I have been unhappy for at least 6 months now. My supervisor made working there unbearable and it started to feel like someone was ripping out my soul every time I thought about going back. How absolutely crazy is it that I stayed for so long!! But let me let you know me and the Lord talked for a very long time about breaking free from that situation. I was definitely nervous because I didn’t have a new job lined up. But one day it just hit me that I needed to quit. That same week I got two calls for job interviews. By that Wednesday I printed off my letter of resignation. I planned to quit that Friday but I just couldn’t wait that long. I had a long, intense prayer and mediation session on Wednesday afternoon and I knew I needed to quit soon. So Thursday morning I went to the office and dropped off my letter of resignation.

I put my faith in the Lord and the left. I jumped without a net. I cannot explain how beautiful and liberating that day was for me. I reached a new level of faith and trust in the Lord and I feel amazing!! That same afternoon I got hired with a different company. God works so quickly! That night I did some yoga, read my Bible, prayed, and meditated. I found myself sitting in my living room in tears. I wasn’t crying because I was upset about leaving my job but I was so grateful for making it though that situation. As I reflected on the situation I found myself realizing all of the feelings I had been suppressing just so I could make it through. I also realized I had started going to be later and later because I knew when I woke up I’d have to go straight to work. All I could do was thank God for pulling me through a storm I didn’t even know I was going through. Now I am in a new job and could not be happier!

I know understand the strength, power, grace, and mercy of the Lord. I knew it was real before but now I KNOW it’s real!! Prayer is so powerful and the Lord heard my cry. I recently heard Pastor James at The Potter’s House preach a sermon on Holler Until He Hears You. This is what I did and if you are going through any situation I encourage you to pray! And holler until the Lord hears you! The Lord is real!  I encourage you to try Him today!!
Talk to you soon!
