Change

I thought I handled change well, until recently there have been a lot of changes around me and in my life. Just before leaving work today, I learned that my boss (the one I've been an assistant to) was laid off (I later learned she was actually fired). They are not replacing her. I am completely and utterly shocked. I'm not sure what this means for me, but I guess I will find out in the coming days and weeks. Prayers would be helpful at this time. I do know I will have more responsibilities which will probably turn out to be a good thing in the end, but right now I am completely overwhelmed. And, I am so sad that today someone had to go home to their family without a job. I nearly feel like it was me that lost my job. Really, I am so shocked and saddened. I was just getting into the groove of things and my boss and I got along really well. It goes to show that life can change in an instant.

Also, yesterday, the first counselor in our RS Presidency was released. She recently got engaged and will be getting married soon. I'm happy for her, but it is sad to see her go. We've grown as we've come together as a presidency in the past few months.

Boy, just since the end of last year my life has changed a lot! A new job, new calling, new car (which now means I have car payments, insurance payments, and have to pay for gas.. and that is a BIG change for me!)... etc.

Who knows what the coming months will bring. I'm glad my Heavenly Father does! I'm definitely going to need to rely on Him to help me as I continue to experience change in my life. I guess as they say, "Nothing is as constant as change."
