Wow, now it has really been a while since I wrote on here. These past few years have been an incredible journey of ups and downs, but indeed God's grace and mercy insist on restoring me and bringing me Home! GOD has been beyond good with me and I know that He continues to work on my behalf until He completes the magnificent work of shaping me into the individual that He longs to see in the end. I know trials, crucibles, storms and narrow roads await me still ahead, but I don't want Him to stop the remarkable work that He is so diligently doing with me while in the furnace--not until He can see the reflection of His own face on me. I am confident that during each circumstance of hardship, no matter how difficult or painful, He will hold my hand and will be my refuge and strength so that I am made capable to endure.
As most of you know it, I had been unemployed for a little over a year, but I began working on October 7 (last week, Wednesday) as a kindergarten teacher assistant at the Mamaroneck Avenue Elementary School. I am also working half the time as the school's Nurse's Assistant and I am loving it there so much! Praise GOD from Whom ALL blessings flow; Praise Him because His plans are always better than mine! Guys, this is why I honestly can't stop praising my Maker--words can not express how grateful I am for how awesome and mighty HE is! I truly love Jesus, even more than I did yesterday... My greatest desire is that I learn to love Him deeper each day as I learn more and more about His character on a daily basis.
Since today I am off from both school and work, I need to take advantage of this tiny break and advance a couple of homework assignments that will all be due at the same time in November. I don't want to leave everything for the last minute... I've actually gotten so much better at the procastinating thing, which is such a terrible habit. I am on top of my studies/assignments and I owe it all to HIM, because without my precious Jesus I would not have the self-discipline to do what I am supposed to. I am amazed at how much I've grown within the last three (3) years, and I look forward to growing even more as a strong/virtuous woman of GOD.
I hope to be able to come here and write praise reports more often, too. In the meantime, hope you are all doing well. May God richly and abundantly bless you! (:
