I Got Jobs!

So was it by faith or obedience? I say both; I had to let go of what I had (my old job; only after I had accomplished my purpose there) and trusting God that it was the right time to quit my job (even without one in the horizon).
I have two jobs; one as a web developer using PHP to manage an existing website (I will serve in this capacity for two months), and the other as systems supervisor (I take up this appointment in two months time).

How has this affected my walk with God? I know the one who I have believed that He is able to do what He has said; not only in my job search but in every sphere of my life. When the going gets tough and it looks like there is no end in sight, I mustn't loss hope. This is easy to say when you are at the shore, but in raving waters, will I be able to say this? I have been through some difficulties in life; a lightning strike, armed robbery- I don't know what else is there; but what can I say?, I have been through the eye of the storm and I have come out unscratched? No, not that. Each difficulty has taught me a valuable lesson on faith. My job search has taught me about obedience in the light of faith.

I can't help but wonder about what else out there and my role in it all? I see my family, friends, community; the struggles we go through each day as Christians- faith, obedience are just nouns when we don't get the God part of it- the essence of what He meant when Samuel said to obey is better than sacrifice  and to listen is better than the sacrifice of rams, 1 Samuel 15: 22. I am glad I listened; I am glad I sacrificed; I am glad God delivers on His promises. I asked and He provided.

My Prayer: God, lead me every hour. Let me know you more. Let me abide in you more. Hold me close and never let me go.
