In February 2023 I was at my lowest. I was fired from my job that I hated, and I was so far from God. I didn’t know what to do. 

I went to work in the plant because I didn’t want to go to college. I just wanted a job to one day provide for a family. I knew God, but I was living life my way – I needed to answer his call. 

The night I was fired I felt hopeless. God put it on my heart to open His word. I opened to a random page in the middle and stumbled on Psalms 20:4, “May He give you what your heart desires, and fulfill your whole purpose”.

God was waiting for me to answer His call. Shortly after, I was hired at Chick-Fil-A Crosby. At first I thought it was an in-between  job, but I’m currently in charge of training, and every day at work I have an opportunity to spread God’s love. 

I met my now fiancé, joined a great church family at Second Baytown, started serving in student ministry, and have grown so much closer to God. 

Thank you God for waiting for me, and showing me your love everywhere I look. 

At some point we will all need direction, and the best way to find it is in God.

Matthew 6:33 says, “Seek first the kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”

If your heart is on the Lord, and you live to serve Him, He will provide. Seek the Lord in everything you do. He is good, and He is faithful. If you are in the same boat I was when I was feeling hopeless, I’m living proof of a loving God. Turn to His word, not the world, and He will fulfill your heart.
