Lots and Lots

Well, here I am writing again, after a few days away from the blog. A lot has gone on since I last wrote. First of all I found an opportunity to work and make some money. Certainly enough to cover gas to Gethsemani for morning mass. I debated whether or not to talk about the work on here at all, as it isn't strictly spiritual. However, the timing of the work, and the nature of the work, make it fit for spiritual reflection.

It's work at home. I can do the entire thing on the phone, or I can go out and talk about it in person. We are all leery of work-at-home schemes so I spent a great deal of time checking this out, found it to be legitimate, and signed up. It's called AmeriPlan, and it's a discount medical card. That's all that I need to say about what it is.

The spiritual side is that while I have trouble standing more than 20 minutes at a time, most places will not hire me. That I am missing a front tooth is enough to prevent most places form hiring me. I prayed to God, Jesus, and the Virgin for help and guidance. My self respect was plunging. Never in my life did I have trouble finding a job. If I went out looking for a job I usually had one within two days.

Then an email came from the only work-at-home site I trust. The timing of the opportunity is what convinces me that this is an answer to prayer. With this came a renewed vigor in my self esteem, and a renewed commitment to God. I could wax eloquent for a long time about all this, but I'm limiting myself because today I get to go see my oldest great nephew. Gavin is his name, and he's almost three years old. What a joy!

Glory to God! Amen
