Well here is the very latest in my perpetual Saga called 'Life'.....
Things just aren't looking very well at my job at all, and they are now holding up paperwork to keep me from getting my National License renewed. I have NO IDEA how that's possible and I know its NOT legal, but I have no hard evidence to turn in to anyone who could do anything about it.
I learned that if I am gone, then a couple of them would be getting raises in pay. How wonderful for them. They won't EVEN hear me out or give me any sort of chance. Their intentions are obvious.
They have created enough garbage on paper (ALL LIES!) where I am told that I only have 3 points left out of 12 allowed against employees annually. Those 3 points shouldn't be to difficult to come up against me with for 'professional liars'.
I NEVER would have in a MILLION years imagined this considering 2 or 3 of these people I always believed to be my friends!

Sometimes I just feel like I have no feelings any more. I just feel a constant dull ache throughout my bones, or I feel completely numb. I have cried SO MANY days and nights over the past 8 month. I have NO tears left any more! I have cried out to God Almighty, and have talked, listened and prayed to Him daily for HIS will for my life, for His plans, and purposes, and HIS strength, love and perseverance. I just don't sense Him in my life any more. I feel like I have offended Him some how. Does anybody else ever feel this way????
I am just a shell any more, I do believe. Sometimes I really don't feel like I exist any longer. Nothing really seems to matter. Am feeling like a walking dead man most days!
Believe it or not, I am NOT feeling sorry for myself in the slightest bit
either. I'm truly not in any way. I don't care any more about a lot of things to be quite honest. Normally you wont find a more dedicated and caring/committed person than I am, and that's not bragging, but saying just how the Lord created me to be. Thats ALL changed for what ever reason.
Sadly, I just was going over some figures...... If this career is taken from me (If the Lord God permits it) I would have to come up with somewhere between $20,000 to about $27,000 in a VERY short period of time! That wouldn't even allow me enough time to try to sell the house. An appraisal takes a chunk of change, and there are still a few things that would need taken care of first, and that would be about $3,000-$4,000 dollars to do.
A big problem being, I can't just step into another position like this. It is VERY competitive and selective to say the least, and always a long waiting list to boot. NOTHING around a 250 mile radius would pay anything close to what I am making in the profession that I am trained in and have put in about 18 years of my life! (It's not very 'big bucks' either. Only about $30,000 Gross annually.) If they are able to hold up things with my licensure, that could mess up me ever working in this profession ever again!
God knows what's best. I do know that. No matter how painful, frustrating, and ugly this past year has been, HE still has final say in all things. I am STILL praying for just an occasional day of 'Spring' or 'Summer' to off-set this LONG, VERY LONG and dreary season of 'Winter' and total darkness in my life.
God bless you. Thanks for caring and continuing to pray for me, my ear to heal from this past surgery, and for prayers for my health (Blood pressure, stress, etc...) ministry callings, the demo CD (music ministry),the National Music competitions coming up, my career, my schooling, my wonderful family with health and financial needs too, prayers for my dearest Sara Lynn and the other man/men (Its SO VERY HARD trying to stand strong for the restoration of my marriage when I believe thats what God REALLY wants for me to do, when people continually tell me otherwise!) and for my finances to improved greatly so that I can get out of debt and better serve the Lord God and His people with the finances that hehas and IS blessing me with.
I love and appreciate you, my dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ Jesus! Thank you for your loving kindness and staying in prayer for all these things and being by my side in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Your humble and very thankful Brother and friend in Christ Jesus and by HIS precious blood and PERFECT love as an example for us all,

Thanks to those of you have emailed encouraging words my way since I haven't been to the boards in quite a while! Its too hard on me to be here. I just haven't been my self. It means SO much to me that you care and DO try to understand what I have been going through night and day this past year.

Hello
I need to clarify this a bit better I guess......
I need your prayers and divine intervention from the Lord God Almighty who I am totally and completely placing my trust in to move in a mighty and spectacular way (MIRACLE!) in this matter on or before Monday March 15th or Tues. the 16th of March at the latest to get all of the paperwork returned in time to get my renewal on my national licensure.
All paperwork was all submitted a couple of months ago, but now the 'politics' have thrown a 'curve ball' and hindered the process, and I don't\WON'T believe for a second that the enemy is going to win this one. Please stand firmly in agreement with me on this if you would please???? Thank you so much!
Please continue praying that the good Lord would answer our prayers regarding all of these matters of importance in my life, and that He would reveal to me thru the Holy Spirit very CLEARLY what methods or avenue to pursue regarding some supplemental income that I have been praying about for a while now.
Thanks again to those who have emailed, asked, cared, and prayed for all of these situations. I couldn't do it without the love, tender mercies, Gods unlimited Grace, and the prayers of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ!
Thank you and may the Lord God richly bless you all in a mighty way!
In His perfect love,
Your Brother in Christ Jesus
