The Lord Restores

 
I am the poster child for this meme.

The years from 2007- 2009 were not good ones. I went through a divorce, my father passed away and was laid off from my job of 14 years. If anyone had a reason to be down, it was me.

I drew close to God. And likewise, he drew close to me. Slowly restored my relationship with my children. Became extremely close to my dear mother. Applied for over 900 (yes that's not a typo) jobs.

God had told me that a job and relationship would go hand in hand.

He was faithful and true and blessed me with my soulmate Valerie and shortly after that a job which eventually led to the best job I ever had at Publix.

"Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heav'nly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost."

"10 After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and gave him twice as much as he had before. 11 All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate with him in his house. They comforted and consoled him over all the trouble the Lord had brought on him, and each one gave him a piece of silver[a] and a gold ring." Job 42:10-11
