Answered Prayers

Hello, Beautifully-Complexers! Today as I said my morning prayers, I went on and on about how I want a job that I care about. A job that I want to get up and go to even on the most stressful days. I see people living their dreams and making it happen, but it doesn’t seem to happen for me. When will it be my time? In that moment, I realized that I wasn’t paying attention to all of the answered prayers that I have around me.

For starters, God woke my loved ones and myself up for another day. He has blessed me with a new apartment with the love of my life and fur babies. Smokey was in pain and God took it away. I just got a raise while still in training at work. All my bills are paid, and I have money left over. And I have an amazing support system. I’m surrounded with His love and I’m so grateful. He understands how my mind works and He sends comfort to me whenever I am down. God is awesome!

I may not be doing what I want to be doing for a living, but everything happens in accordance with God’s Will. He has showed up and showed out all 2021 and then some. He deserves all the glory and praise instead of my sadness. I know not every day will be easy, but I must remind myself of the blessings that I have. God has answered so many prayers. My day is coming. I will have that meaningful, fulfilling, dream job one day. I may never understand how I got there, but I know there is a process.

God has us even when it feels like we’re drowning. He knows our desires and He will make a way. I do have to ask: Can you pray that I stay encouraged? It’s not always easy to remember the obvious when you’re in the moment. My mind tends to check out when I’m longing for my passion to become a reality. I do know that God will never leave me nor forsake me. I trust His will. I trust that everything I am feeling and going through is for a reason. If you’re feeling like me, I will pray for you too. These rough patches have a purpose. Keep pushing through, and I will too. We are blessed.
