What an exciting weekend for the Cordero household. Thursday afternoon, Matt received a call from Aramark...the company that had just turned him down the week before. They wanted a 3rd interview with him. Of course he nailed it, but we didn't find out until 4:00 Friday afternoon that they wanted to hire him. HAPPY DANCE! This job has so much potential. Base plus commission, car allowance, insurance from day one, vacation incentives, etc. He will work Mon.-Fri. 7:30-4:30...Exactly what we wanted. And he can pursue seminary teaching. We're not out of the woods yet, though. We have 12 months to make up from lost income, food storage, and paying it forward. But we recognize this as a tremendous blessing for our family. A huge burden has been lifted. I can't even begin to express the relief I feel. Two days before Matt received the job offer, I had written in my journal that I had reached my breaking point. I really didn't know how much longer I could go on and have hope. I know that my prayers were answered at the exact moment that Heavenly Father wanted them to be. I had to learn, I had to grow over these past 2 years. And now, when I stop to think about it, I really am grateful for this trial. The lessons I learned are literally priceless. We have a road of recovery ahead of us, but now we have the means to accomplish our goals.
We are truly on a journey to have peace.
