What Is Life Going To Throw At Me Next?

I understand it has been WAY  too long since my last update. I have been very busy, and I guess at a loss for words. Needless to say, this month has not been good at all. There have been too many trials and tribulations with friends, school, and work. I understand it is all part of the test of life but WHY on earth does everything have to happen at the same time. Just when I think I am finally getting everything back on track and things begin to look up, I get blind-sided again! For example, I work at a daycare. Yesterday I go to my normal shift and everything is going great. Right before I leave my supervisor says she wants to talk to me quick before I leave for the day. I think to myself... "Okay, I know I didn't do anything wrong so I guess we'll see what she has to say." I walk into her office and she tells me: "The corporation had to make some cuts so unfortunately I will no longer need you after TODAY." Today....? She tells me this after my shift is done. No heads up earlier in the week... NOTHING. Just out of the blue. My one source of steady income just gone! That really put the icing on the cake for me, needless to say I kept it together... until I got to my car. Then it was total breakdown!

So after that I figured my day couldn't get much worse. It didn't get a lot worse but then last night I had a discussion with a friend in which I had to make decisions for myself. All I want to even say about that situation is that you would think that after 8+ years of a friendship (a really GREAT one at that) I never thought I would have to make the decision that I did. I think it will ultimately be the best for me and my future, but it is still something you wish you wouldn't have to do. I do have an amazing support system to get me through it. HOPEFULLY it is all looking up from here. But I guess only one person knows what life is going to throw at me next...

I have one saying that has helped me get through so much in my life, and I will pass it along in hopes that it will help.

If God brings you to it, He'll get your through it.

He wouldn't throw all of this at you at once if He didn't think you could handle it. Keep strong in the decisions you make and know that times WILL get better :-)
