a change in heart

If you asked me a week ago whether I was enjoying my job, I would have told you that I was thinking about updating my resume. Work had become less and less fun over the past few weeks and I was seriously contemplating throwing in the old towel and moving on. Personality clashes, boredom, feeling like less of a spiritual influence and feeling more worldly influenced, and on top of it all, the two-year-itch had started to kick in and I started to think that i could get a better deal (salary-wise) elsewhere.

But I have to really thank God that I had a bit of a change in heart. Well it wasn't really my heart that changed, it was more that circumstances had changed. I got a mini-increase in pay, personality clashes seemed to settle down, I got some more interesting work and I got to share the gospel with one of the people that I never thought I would share the gospel with!

It's really great how God uses things like that to show us His will. When stuff like that happens, I just can't help but see how great God is and how He truly is a personal God who knows our hearts inside and out.
