I got home just in time for my first day of work with Matthew at Cherry Hills. In preparation, Jesus had some work to do in my heart. I have honestly been putting up a big fight and pouting way too much about my new job and especially my pay check. I am taking a big step down in responsibility and, in my pre-Jesus-working-it-out-in-me perspective, professionalism and definitely pay. And even though I knew nothing about that was going to change, I have been complaining my way through the last few weeks. Sadly, as a result, I allowed my own pity party to get in the way of my excitement, preparation and commitment to my job and this awesome little boy I'm working with.
In true Jesus fashion, He kept knocking and speaking and finally sending my mom to take me out to lunch and talk me through it. I realized that I needed a good humbling, knowing that God has me exactly where He wants me. I want His glory and I also know that He is a good and loving God who provides exactly what I need. I honestly have no idea where this will lead, but I do know that I need to give up my pride regarding my paycheck and trust that God knows much better that I do.
And after my first day today, I was reassured that while this might be a pretty big challenge, this little boy and this experience are going to be such a joy. Plus, Jesus knows that I will have time to give to Jefff during His leap of faith, time to explore other things that I might be interested in doing, and He is always paving the way for us- including financially! So I am praying that God would continue to work out my pride and allow me to be a part of his good plan for Matthew and me.
