86 ~ Shared Witness

By Kay Heitsch

I knew there was going to be a trial. I was told I would be a Shared Witness. Both Dad and Mom wanted me as their witness. This is a unique position to be in, believe me.

The phone calls ramped up to a new level. I told both that whatever I shared with one, the other person would get a copy.

Whenever someone came to the house, I would play quiet Christian music in the background. This kept me calm, and it helped create a positive atmosphere in the room.

However, now I needed a new job. I prayed and asked the Lord to help me find the job He wanted me to do.

I'll warn you, this prayer may lead you to a job way out of your comfort zone!

I saw an ad for Comfort Keepers Non-Medical In-Home Care. I had never heard of this company or anything like it. I wasn't sure what it was. I assumed it must be helping older people stay in their homes by doing small jobs for them.

I had never done anything like this before. But I liked older people, and helping someone stay in their own home seemed like a wonderful thing to do. Was this the job God had for me to do?

I felt an urge to call the number and was invited over for an interview. I really liked and felt comfortable with the lady who owned the company. I was hired. This new job was going to prove to be quite an experience.

At first, this new job was an escape from the phone calls, etc., while I was working, but as soon as I was home, the phone was ringing.

Remember how I led you on this long journey. Deuteronomy 8:2
