God of Abundance

Yesterday I wrote a check for the remaining balance of my checking/savings account to pay my bills for the month of July. This is after my 3 months of unsuccessful job searching and my 2 or so months of unemployment. My resources finally dried up. I had been stressing, freaking out and worrying for the past few weeks about what I was going to do when that day finally came.

Today I received a call from Best Buy asking me if they could conduct a phone interview with me. After talking with the lady she said that they really liked my application and would like me to come in for a second interview for a Customer Service position on Saturday! She said they they are open to hiring me for a few positions but that will be the first one they'll interview for. Then 10 minutes after I got off the phone with the Best Buy manager a woman called me and asked me to start babysitting her kids.... for $15/hour! My first job is Thursday night!

God is so good! I don't know why I worry and stress out so much. He has always provided for me and He will always provide for me. Even if it's not on my timing! He is a God of Abundance.

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"
Matthew 6:25-27
