I am praying for you.
Here is a testimony
About 3 years ago I went into this program to build a house. That was in 2005, 2006, 2007 no thing until 9-27-07, when they Broke ground on my house. Now here we are on the verge of 9-2008, We have only 8% left to go to finish building this house. I saw nothing being built on this property for 2 years and then today having 8% left to go. Plus an extension from the bank until 1-1-09. I will be in this house! In Jesus Name!
Another one I was laid off on 6-26-08 and the company told us on 6-27-07 that we were losing our jobs.
I saw so many people quit, jump ship, got fired! I was determined and claming in the Name of Jesus Christ that I will make it til 4-27-2008 which placed me 10 years with this company I had 2 months until 6-26-08 to make it until my last day guess what I did make it and then some!
I am going through A Dry Season for 3 whole years!
! I am not complaining just Claiming the Lord's promises and standing on his word! God can still provide in Dry Places Amen!
I lost my X/FH which was Divine Intervention! I get so tempted to move back! I thank God for his Free-Will b/c I choose to move onward and forward!
I spoke to my builder the other day! We we
erplexed what are we suppossed to learn from all of this? I said PATIENCE and Know That God is Able! God is the Restorer! Be Blessed!

And I bet you do too. Just think about His goodness and how far He has brought you. God is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever. He does not change. If He brought you out before, He will bring you out again. My current testimony is that God is so very good and today I am reminded that God's timing is absolutely perfect.
I have been with my current employer for a little over nine years. The company is a good company and the position was a good, solid start for me. My original intent was to stay for about two years and then move on. But, I got comfortable and I stayed and stayed and stayed. I have wanted to leave for so long. Five years ago I interviewed for a position with a company I have wanted to work for and I still want to work for them. I prayed, my prayer partner prayed and she and I prayed together. We thought I had the job, we believed I had the job, but I didn't get the job. I was hurt. I decided to pursue nursing school. I took the pre-reqs and I applied to nursing school this past winter. I did not get in. I felt defeated and started feeling like my career, or lack there of, was doomed. Yet, in my heart of hearts I knew and I still know that God has something so great for me. About three months ago I knew that the time was coming. I don't know if I was *really* conscious of it, but I knew it.
I went out to lunch with a co-worker and asked him to help me with my resume. I listened to his suggestions and others and tweaked my resume. I applied for several jobs and each time I would get a response saying thanks, but no thanks. And these were jobs I knew that I was qualified for. A few weeks ago I started feeling like God was dealing with me. I felt like God was taking me out of my comfort zone. I knew that is what He was doing. I remembered what my prayer partner told me years ago. She told me not to tense up when God deals with me. So, I made the choice to not tense up. I listen to God and rested in Him. This entire month I have been meditating on Psalm 91. A few days later I got a call for an interview. I had not been on an interview in five years. I wasn't all that excited about the interview, but decided to go to get the practice. I got to that interview and learned that the job was more than I thought it was going to be. In fact it was for something that I have contemplated doing for quite some time if nursing school doesn't work out. When I left that interview I decided that I wanted that job. I didn't get scared at the thought of change. I embraced it. So many times I would pray to God to change my situation and when it seemed like change was on the horizon I would tense up and reject it. I didn't do that this time. Last week I was offered the job and I accepted it. After nine years with the same company I am leaving. I am sad because I am going to miss my co-workers. They are almost like family to me. But, I know in my heart that it is time to move on. Today God told me that His timing is perfect and it became so clear to me why I haven't left the company before now. God needed me to mature. You see, had I left the company any sooner I would not have left on good terms. I would have been spiteful. I would have spent my last two weeks at that job with my feet propped up. I would have bad mouthed every single person in that company who ever stabbed me in the back. Last month I prayed that when I left my job that I would leave with a clear conscious and on good terms. When I gave my notice I told my manager that I would leave them in good shape. I have been working ahead so that they won't be too bogged down while they are looking for my replacement. I have continued to be professional and I will continue to be professional until I walk out that door next Friday. At my next company I know that I my game will need to be tight. I know that this move is a good one for me. I know that this is just the beginning. And I know that this is just more preparation. I know that the job at my dream company is waiting for me. This new job is on the path to my dream company.
God is good, His timing is perfect and He will bless you. Be patient. He will bless you.

Still going through and have been going through some personal trials for the last couple months. Still going through that "standing still" stage as well. Don't lose hope. Sometimes people can't come back once they lose all hope....i don't want to go that low.
Only God.
I keep reminding myself to thank him. Thank him when i'm crying and feel i can't take it anymore and thank him when i got over a hurdle and things are lookin' alright again.
He will bless me. I deserve to be blessed. And so do you, and you will. Patience is a virture that needs to be commended.

Well, you may have seen my testimony on here before. I am a single mother of three, I have been not only living under God's grace and having him in control of my spiritual health, but also under his physical blessing. I have not worked since September of 2007. I have been actively seeking employment---almost like an obsession. Well, anyway, throughout that time, God has been making ways for me and my kids to have everything we need AND MORE!!. I have not had to resort to any sinful ways of paying my bills. God has blessed us with a car that was so cheap that it could have only been God. My kids keep new/like new clothing coming in.
I have also been sooooooo blessed spiritually and God has just been talking to me in so many ways and through so many people. I asked him to help me to "know" when he is speaking and boy has he delivered.
