They all remineded me: Everything happens for a reason

As I walked in to inquire about a part time position in the deli area of the store, I'd never really imagined all that would come from that exact moment or what would be the reason that I had stepped up to ask for a position in that store, however, as the story un-reveals itself, I'm nothing shy of shocked and overwhelmed for all the amazing opportunities that have occurred for myself within those walls!!!!

The place of employment where I clock in on a part time basis as a manager, continues to amaze me. For when I had applied, a friend of mine, shared there's more to this god send then you'll ever begin to realize, go with it and ride that wave as long as  you are able too.

Since I was hired at this facility, I've encountered some hard times and yet, every time I open up to another soul there, about where I am in my life and the trials I'm facing, I'm offered MORE help!!! The strangest part about the help I'm offered, is nothing I'd ever imagine that would've appeared for me, or maybe the strangest part is that its exactly what I need at that exact moment. What ever it is or where ever it comes from .. the thing I continue to hear from everyone there and those that offer the help is:

"Everything happens for a Reason" 

There's a saying that's stuck with me for many years now: 

I needed an income - they hired me I needed help with a ticket - an angel helped me to attain one
I needed more hours - they gave me more
I needed somewhere to live - an angel opened up her home
I needed another bump in hours - they gave me another opportunity
I needed ... asked ... believed ... and received

There's one thing in this life that I'm certain of. Faith. Faith without works is DEAD. 

All you need is ONE small grain, the size of a mustard seed, full of FAITH and you'll never be knocked down.  

I may not have much, yet I do have faith and HOPE and I believe in MAGIC. 

This evening, I needed to share with you that there is HOPE out there and that nothing is impossible, however, staying humble, being honest, open and willing, you will be able to attain the imaginable.

Here's to the next step in my journey and the amazing new chapter to the rest of my journey called:
