Hey Everyone!

How are you all going? I have something to cool to tell you. Last Wednesday I sent my CV out to some recruitment agencies. I decided to do this because a girl in my team had resigned on that Tuesday for a similar job paying and extra 10K! Well I thought we could definately do with the extra $. So I had an interview a week later with a company at 5.00pm and at 2.00pm the next day they came back with a formal job offer paying an extra 9K than what I was on at Tip Top! I couldn't believe it because I had only one interview and they were really keen. I went and told my boss (who has also resigned and I told him I was looking) and he went and spoke to the CFO. She and I had a chat on that evening and said 'I'll get back to you on Friday' She did and yesterday she restructed my salary package and now I only on $300 less than if I had taken the other job offer. I am so very happy cause I really didn't want to take the other job cause it was boring and had no career development but I thought I really should for the extra $. But God is so good cause I really didn't want to leave TT and I really didn't think that they would give me extra $. But they did and we are so amazed at how God works and how he cares for us. Trust in him for all things and he will provide.

I hope this doesn't sound boastful or proud but I just really wanted to share something cool with you. I was really stressing about what to do - boring job more money verses cool job less money. Now I have both thanks to HIM. You may be thinking it is just money and I shouldn't place so much importance on it. But I really feel like my job it to support Hamish through college and provide as best I can in the short time before I become a mummy (God willing- can't wait). To do that for me is to get as much of the mortgage paid off so we can be free to serve without money worries in the future (not that God isn't going to provide through other means). Gee I am being very open about this all......
