Chosenbyone-

I was just re-reading your post this morning. It speaks to me on so many levels. I woke up yesterday morning and I thought of the centurion who told Jesus, "I'm not worthy for you to come into my house". I read a few posts on AFF and someone had written some kind words to me. I felt unworthy of their friendship... of their confidence in me. I got ready and went to the cemetary to drink my customary cup of coffee with my wife (I know, strange isn't it?) I told her how unworthy I felt of her love. I told her how blessed I was to have her in my life, even for a short time. I felt unworthy of that gift. I went to church. A Baptist Church, but church nonetheless. They sang, speakers spoke and then, as they introduced the speaker... a brother stood and asked if he could sing a song. He went forward, saying he didn't know why, but he felt really impressed to sing this song. I don't know the title but the main words were: "I'm not worthy, Lord, to come to you, so would you please come down to me". I sat there listening to God speak to me through that song with tears running down my face. I thought of the Prodical Son who felt so unworthy to call himself his fathers son, that he couldn't even approach the old home place. But the father ran out to meet and embrace him. He was still the boys father. And the boy..well, he was still his son.

Then, last night, I read your post. I think God is behind the scenes pulling the strings on... on something. He's doing something, not only in my heart and life, but in yours as well. I don't know where I fit in in His grand scheme of things, but I hope there is some small place where I can be of service to Him. I offer myself willingly to Him. Unworthily, yes... but willingly. Thank you for your "God Moment" post. I am unworthy of His blessings. I guess we all are. But, He is worthy of our praise. He is worthy of our faith and trust. I pray for you today, that God will take your little seed of faith, which is made stonger through tests and trials, multiply it many times over, and may it spill over onto all those around you. God bless you.

Brother,

This morning, I had just enough time to log in and read a few threads before I had to leave for errands and appointments and I just now have had the chance to check back here on AFF . I would have to admit that when I finished reading this post this morning, I became a bit emotional. You have been giving such a rare gift when you express yourself in writing that I haven't seen but a couple of times in my life. Truly, it is a gift from the Lord!

You claim to not be a preacher, but I assure you that you are a minister. You have not only ministered to me, but to so many people here on AFF. I am confident that there is something special that God has in store for you. Thanks again for taking the time and commenting and sharing your poetic words of peace and wisdom.

I am so blown away right now of how God works and answers prayers!

First of all, earlier today, I was able to connect with the COO that had emailed me last week for the job. I HAVE AN INTERVIEW THIS WEDNESDAY @ 10:00 am.

Now the clincher, I have been running around today and I just had the chance to check my emails (hotmail) after I replied to OA's post, Let me tell you that if I was wearing socks when I logged into that account, they would have blown clear across the room after my eyes fixed on the first email!

I had an email from HCA Hospital wanting to meet with my this Thursday at 10:30 to discuss a job in Pasadena!
This office would only be about a ten minute drive oppose to a 45 minutes to an hour drive to the office for the other job!

To put this in perspective, I have been unemployed since early January and I had became so desperate that I was going to go on social services! That was the last thing that I wanted to do and the Lord knew that! Plus, that resume had been on careerbuilders for so long and not one but two companies have read it and requested to meet with me since last Thursday!

What a mighty God, so faithful and caring! My faith is causing my chest to swell right now...lol.

Thank you all for praying for my situation. Boy, if I knew that I would get this kind of response so soon, I would have asked for prayer months ago.

I am feeling a shockomoo about to break out here in my living room!

Love you all...

Here is your dance!

Thanks everyone for being such good friends! You have been so encouraging and loving. People would think it odd that I considered people here on AFF as my friends, since I have only met a few of you face to face; however, I have spent countless hours reading post after post that you have written which allowed me to have an insight of who you were...AFF has been the drug that I just can't quit! Even now, I should be doing something beside typing this post, but I had to catch up on a few threads that I have been reading.

Anyway, I have been sitting on the sofa getting prepared for my interviews this week. While sifting through my "work" box, I was listening to my play list on youtube and I heard this song. I wanted to post it, so maybe someone would enjoy it as much as I did this morning.

I am signing off for now...
