God (or HP) Works In Mysterious Ways


Was just thinking how I was led to this board back in February and how it was without a doubt an answer to a prayer. Around that same time, I realized that I needed to go back to work because my AH was falling behind in the bills. A friend of mine had told me about a job with an attorney a couple of months before but I wasn't interested at the time but things change. I called the attorney to see if she still needed someone and she did. It turns out that she is one of the best divorce/family law attorneys in our area. She does a lot of work with Social Services custody cases and has absolutely no patience for addicts and their BS. 

I have mentioned on here how I have wanted to be a foster parent and it turns out that my job is scheduling appointments for my attorney with foster parents so I often have to deal with Social Services and am getting to know a lot of people that I would be dealing with if I became one.

Just doing a lot of thinking and it made me feel good to realize that maybe God does know I exist. It's easy to feel abandoned when things are going so bad.

I feel like I had somewhat of a breakthrough today. For the first time in a long time, I thought about something in the future and my first thought wasn't how my AH will be at that time.

Hugs and yes, it's amazing how things can work out when we get out of God's (hp) way. I love how the first three steps are simplified I can't, Hp (God) can, I'll let hp (Him). I will never be able with my pea brain be able to see God's biggest best plan for me. Even if I have to walk through some fire to get there, it's so much better than my limited thinking. ;) hugs!
