I'm not that!

We all did things in our life we hoped we never did! So did I.

Today I was sleeping on my bed listening to the YouTube channel of "Maria Destiny Miranda" (link below). While I was listening to this, I was scrolling through the comments. I was talking to God and asking Him about what I should write. Before this, I watched a video of her testimony about God providing for Her more than she asked. While listening to that one, I was thinking about the job that I'm doing now. I was thinking: Why am I at this job - not in a negative way- but what does the Lord want to teach me at this job? So I thought to write about being a friend or buddy, but couldn't find a title. That video ended, and I chose another video. While scrolling through those comments, It came to my mind, "I'm not that."

After many months of joblessness, I searched for many jobs but couldn't find any. At times I felt useless and like nobody wanted me. During this time, I searched in my field and others but wasn't getting anything. There were times I was so close but still did get it. Less than two weeks ago, I applied for a job, not thinking much of it because not getting one became part of my life. I thank God for getting a job and much more in this pandemic. I still need to find a job in my field, but if it is His will, it will come to pass.

The job is about cleaning the houses of older adults or people who are sick. On my first day, I had one client that told me I was doing everything wrong. I was doing my best to do what Her daughter told me, but she was telling me otherwise because she wanted me to finish cleaning her house in two hours when I had 4 hours to do it. She wanted that because she wanted the place to be clean before her husband came home. When His husband came home, He told me that His wife told me to be done before he arrived, but you're still not done. I told Him what His daughter said, and He was ok with it. But this woman told me during these 4 hours how I was doing everything wrong. I'm not that. I needed to remember that I was not what this woman was telling me I was.

That's why knowing who you are in Jesus Christ is essential. So, when people tell you what they might think about you, you can remember what the Lord is saying about who you are in Him. Satan will always find a way to make you feel bad in a certain way. To remember you about your sins or past guild, don't entertain those thoughts. The only way I found is to remember His promises to me.

Be blessed, and stay blessed!
