Well I got the job. Day shift woo hoo. Not really any more money cause I loose night diff but its a small increase so it makes up for the night diff so all in all about the same pay but its time for something new. Hope i made the right choice. Nice thing is no more weekend work so working "banker hours" for real :)

Jesus our Lord

When you meet someone for the first time how often we get asked "what do you do for a living" or "Do you work or are you a housewife" ..etc!
So often I get weighed down with my answer "I work at a bank"
No thats not my vocation. My vocation is being a wife and mom right? Well yes but.... My vocation is loving Jesus and serving Him and in doing so I must be the best Mom, Wife and I suppose bank worker I can be (lol!)
Like in this picture Jesus carried me many times. Sometimes He led me to people who helped pick me up. Sometimes I have had the honor of helping others who I believe He brought to me as well..

My friend Stacey calls herself a Christ follower! Thats what we all should strive to be. Mother Teresa shares with us also in regard to this.

"Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus."

Mother's Prayer

Pope John Paul & Mother Teresa Pictures, Images and Photos

The version found written on the wall in Mother Teresa's home for children in Calcutta:

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.

What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.

Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.

In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

-this version is credited to Mother Teresa
