Arrow Plz continue praying!

I know that the prayers for me on job issues and everything else has been an amazing blessing for me! Please keep on a'praying for me!

I had a 'red letter' day with 2 job offers, one for a part time job and the other is a "contingent job offer" with a job that is federal, part time with benefits..woohoo! Both are dependent upon the health screenings/drug testing, TB skin tests etc's and more background check stuff.

My goal has been to have a job with my own benefits & one that I can stay in and retire from so that federal one is fitting the bill. I love my job I have with the City but it is a locked in low pay with no city benefits & geared towards being in addition to a full time benefitted job.

I believe in prayer and this time of having left my full time job for the reasons I know where the right ones to leave it for...I've learned a lot about FAITH, my BELIEF...Strength in the face of not having enough money and my courage in standing up for what is right. mmm..isn't that what the tattoo says on my chest? LOL..Belief, Forgiveness, Hope, Courageous, Life.

Forgiveness..do I forgive those men?...I MUST find it in myself to not 'just let it go' but to FORGIVE.

LOL apparently I need to blog upon this subject on my journal site!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hey Bree, I know you are highly qualified for whatever job you are applying for, and you've always and will always put your best foot forward. Keeping you in my prayers, and I am sure the Big Guy will see you through.

Forgiving isn't easy, granted, but sometimes, letting it go for the *time being* may give you time to learn something else that will give you understanding that leads to forgiveness. So, give your heart a rest and some time, there, concentrate on getting that wonderful job that is tailored for you!!

((((((HUGS)))))

Bree, A positive outlook and a belief in God can get you through anything. I will send up a prayer that HE has good things in store for you and your future. God Bless. You have people here that genuinely care.Mattie

I will send one your way. Yes if you can get a Fed Job honey that would be awesome. You get all the what ever holidays and plenty of vacation time. The benefits are awesome. I have applied for a job with the Federal Law Office here in Virginia. They accepted my application which is a defeat in it self. Any one that has ever applied for a Federal Job knows what I mean about that.

So plenty of prayers and good wishes going your way. I hope this finds you well today.
