The True Pilot

Over the past few years, I have spent a lot of time in airplanes traveling within the US and across the globe for my own pleasure. My travels have been fun and for the most part I have never really run into any issues. Until recemtly, I was on a flight that started off really ROCKY, so rocky that I could not get any sleep (which I always get to do on my flights).  This got me thinking, so many times I have put my trust in so many pilots that I don't know. Pilots that you can't see, or touch or hear but yet I trusted them with my life.

Why then is it so hard to trust completely and utterally in God? You can't see Him or touch Him and most times you feel like you can't hear Him but just like a pilot He is there. Leading and directly our lives if we would just stay in our seats (Let Go) with our seat belts on (Let God). We already know He can and He will land us to our destination safely.

God's Purpose

During the course of my childhood, my parents have encouraged my siblings and I to participate in volunteer opportunities. As I have grown and gone through my career path, opportunities to give back to communities and various organizations have presented itself. If you know me really well, you will know that saying "No" for me is very hard to do. Feeling like superwoman can do that to you. But finding a opportunity that embraces my feistiness, extreme organization, and passion of numbers is not easy to do. So what do you to?

I prayed and asked God to lead me to my purpose. And God placed the right people on my path to lead me to a job that was designed just for me. In October of 2013 I began working as the Corporate Accountant for Olympus Foundation Management (OFM). This amazing company serves non-profit charitable organizations with their foundation set-up, growth and development, and fundraising event planning. Just months after obtaining my Masters in Non-Profit Management, this opportunity of a lifetime fell in my lap.

So what do you do when you have already accomplished your dream job before you turn 30??? Pray and Ask God for a new one and watch Him work to acheive that one too!!!!
