It’s Official Now!!

So, those of y’all that follow my blog have known for a while that the time was coming when I was completely free of my corporate job.  Back in July I really felt led to take the leap to quit and be a full time photographer, and then I was pretty much asked to work part time till October because there was a lot going on.  Well to make a long story short - I am now officially a full time photographer!

This is just one of those time where I sit back and I’m just astounded at the grace of God. Never in my own personal life have I been given such a testimony of what God can do. For so many months I prayed for it, and I don’t know why it surprised me so much when it actually happened..that I could be a full time photographer and work for myself.  I guess this is the first time I truly sought His direction on something and felt led to do it. Don’t think I didn’t have doubts!  Just the other day I was looking back at my prayer journal and there were so many times my prayers went something like this "God, I really feel like you are leading me to quit my  job but I just don’t see how it is finacially possible".  From God orchestrating me to work part time for 3 months as I transitioned, to the 26 weddings I photographed this year for experience, and the 17 weddings that He’s brought me so far for 2008 - I am astounded. I’m astounded by His provision, at the fact that He DOES have a will for me, that He will reveal it if I just am still and listen.  Astounded most of all at His grace for me - and that He’s been so good to me, in spite of myself.
