3/2/2020



Dear Family,

 “Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU for your prayers.”  God brought me on a roller coaster ride and I am so grateful for your intervention and care.
            I have accepted a job as a “Relationship Manager” with Heartland Payment Systems.  It is outside sales, and I love it.
            Here is what I love most about my new job.  I am making friends everywhere.  Last week I met the owner of a gold and rare coin shop.  He remains cash only because he doesn’t make much markup.  He mentioned that he bought $10,000 worth of gold and will only make $200 on the sale.  A credit card will suck that and more from any transaction.  This makes sense to me.  Besides, I said, “That sounds really heavy.”  From my past food service experience, I know $10,000 of food would break my back throwing the freight.  I was imagining oceans 11 work.  He put a couple of gold coins in my hand and said, “You are now holding $10,000.”   Agh!  It was too much – I gave it back quickly.
            God has blessed me with a job that does not hurt my body.  I love walking, meeting new people and helping them.  I love the business to business networking.  I love learning something new, growing as a person and, as a new friend said, “Sharing your testimony.” 
            Today Pastor Marcus said, “Don’t just do good things that there may be more good in the world.  Do God things that there may be more God in the world.”  Because God has given me this job I plan on honoring Him by following His lead as I go.
            Now on to this week's blessings!  Bobby continues to cook amazing meals and love it.  I am so glad he enjoys serving our family this way.  Bobby also thanked me for helping at youth group and I am glad to bless him.
            How fun to have a friend over for board games.  I enjoy God’s blessing of friends.
            Bobby and Seth are happily safe home from the High School retreat.  I am glad to hear Jane loves Seth enough to ask him to work at Tapawingo.  I will pray he accepts.
            Seth continues to be sweet in prayers and hugs.  He also had a creepy phone stalker.  He finally stopped the texts by saying, “I am underage.”
            Earlier this month Seth asked, “Where are you going?”  When I said, “To work.”  He replied, “Oh, you really do have a job.” 
            When Adriel found out Bobby and Seth were gone she made time to be with me.  I am blessed by Adriel’s love and attention.  She spent time with me on purpose.  How sweet!
            May you find God’s leading brings you wonderful places.  May you “Believe he exists and He rewards those who seek him.”  Hebrews 11:6.  Much Love,


Cristy
