View TICTOC's food & exercise for this day

Okay, so I fell off the earth a bit there. Had a tough week starting with last Thursday...
Never fails- the enemy always attacks when you have a blessing in store. I faltered- he may think he won the battle but the war is never over...

Thanks everyone for your comments on my last entry-
Tracey I will be taking you up on that offer for helping on my resume.

I got a little scared there for a bit... I starting thinking- Can I really get this job? And If I do, can I handle it? I have never in my life thought that way about a job. It confirms to me even more that I must apply for it and have Faith that it is mines and continue to claim it. I got scared because it is a really tough job and the ironic part about it- if I do great on it- I get promoted but promotions also means that I am subject to being moved a lot. something that I don't think I am interested in. So I was having second thoughts. But then I told myself- hmmm it could potentially be years before a change like that occurs and who knows where I will be by then to stifle myself now? And heck, if the time comes and I don't want to relocate my family again- not only will I have proven that I can handle a strenous management style job but I will also show longetivity on a job- only boosting my options for another position elsewhere. So what am I afraid of?

I think more than anything I am afraid of failing... afraid of not getting the job and not being assigned back to home and feeling like i have to continue on a different path to getting back home and securing a good job. I think I am afraid of the unknown... and I am afraid of the fact that I am not a perfect christian and I have a lot to focus on with my walk with Christ. I keep telling myself- He is my Father, and he Loves Me unconditionally and the areas that I am weak in he will help me to get stronger in but that he doesn't punish me because of them. So I am fighting fear and as Joyce Meyers said- Do it Afraid...

So everyone, pray for me. Pray that I don't be fearful, that my resume is superb and that all doors are opened for me and obstacles are moved.

Below is the email I received when all of this first begin and I am holding on to these words and stepping out on faith.

Girl be encouraged. Peter began to sink when he was walking on water towards Jesus, but he got out of the boat. AT LEAST YOU GOT OUT OF YOUR BOAT! Some people never would've even applied!!! :teeth1:
