My new life...and trusting in God

So about a month ago it was my last day at the job I had spent basically all my adult life at.  Sixteen years...So on Sunday morning I was thinking about it. I thought wow at this time on any regular Sunday I would be already stressed about how only hours would pass and I would have to go to a job I hate. But last Sunday I was relived. I just figured out I don't hate Mondays anymore. I look forward to everyday now. Yes I have no steady income and I still have bills to pay but I'm so happy. So I feel like a lot of my life I have had to learn a lot of lessons. And one of the lessons I have recently learned was to trust God. I know it sounds crazy because as a Christian that is probably the most important thing in life. And I knew that but I never really had to prove it. Now I'm proving it by leaving a place so familiar and safe to me. I took this step because I was miserable. I needed this. Also I just came off a cruise. I meet a few people on this cruise that I felt God placed in my path. I meet this guy named Shun and this other man named Dave. Shun told me the most important thing once I told  him my plan was the follow through, Dave said that if I was going to work from home the most important thing was to be disciplined. So this week I have started to have sort of a schedule and I been trying to stick to it. I get up and get ready, have breakfast and then go in my office and work (EBAY). I have done that three out of four days this week. I'm not perfect but with time I will have that down. Also I remember telling my self that if I was going to quit I would need to make it a priority to work out or at least walk. I also have done that three times with week. So progress after a much needed month off. But what I can say to wrap this up and that I'm enjoying my new life. Resting and spending time with my mom is awesome. I'm trying to be open to all that God may send my way. Trusting that he will send me in the right direction...
