It's about time!!!!

YES!!!

After 4 1/2 months of being out of work
and nearly 6 months of job searching I finally have a job!!

And I start TOMORROW! Holy Cow!

I am SO excited!!!

So I will be working for Renton Collections Inc., which obviously is a collection agency in Renton, as their legal secretary. It is a pretty small office, I think they said there are about 25 employees in the office. They have a small legal department in house that works in conjunction with a lawyer out of Federal Way. When a payment plan cannot be worked out with a debtor legal proceedings need to be started to garnish wages, etc. I'm not sure about the whole process and what specifically gets done. But as the legal secretary I will be preparing the documents to start the legal process against the debtors. There will be a lot of learning in the next few weeks as I get trained by the person I will be replacing (thank goodness for that!).

I am just so excited that I finally have a job! I am glad that it is close to home and I won't have a huge commute and I am especially excited that I will be doing something in the legal realm.
But mostly I am just so grateful to finally receive an answer to our prayers! It has been a struggle for me to wait patiently on the Lord (maybe a lesson I needed to learn?) and trust in His timing. But I know that He has always been in control and had a plan for me. I know that He guided me throughout the whole process and I am grateful to know that He was always there with me. I am so thankful for His loving care and guidance.

I also need to thank my biggest supporter...Eric! He always had so much faith in me and my abilities. Whenever I would have moments of despair he would lovingly remind me that I am amazing and I would get a job and until I did we would be okay. He has been so patient with me, I'm sure at times I wasn't the easiest to deal with! Thank you, love, for always supporting me, for loving me, and for comforting me during this trial!. I love you so much and I am so grateful for you!
