Just a small news flash about yours truly - ME. Wednesday of this week everyone at work (Harrahs Casino Tunica) were notified that the casino is closing its doors for good with the last day being June 1st. Now I been there for 16 1/2 years as the manager of the Family Fun Center, providing a service to the young and old alike and like any business we have had our share of ups and downs. Now I got the notice by email since I have a property email address and you can probably imagine the look on my face and how I felt after reading this disturbing news. I have to admit that for about one minute I had disbelief sinking deep into me and wondering what I will do next. Well... I will tell you what I did... I looked up to Heaven and allowed God to bring calmness back into my life AND He did. In the coming days and weeks ahead I will continue to remember the calmness that He laid on my heart on that dreadful Wednesday and allow it to help me to think more clearly moving forward and with deeper determination to make it. I have lost no sleep over it and not a worry in the world. Granted there will be challenging days ahead but my God is BIGGER than any problems I may face. Now you ask How can you be so calm when you are about to lose your job? My answer in one mighty and glorious word ~ Faith. Faith has carried Resa and myself thus far and I refuse to allow myself to give up on God since He has never given up on me. Now I know that I alone cant change the decision that was made about the closing but I do have a choice as to how I will react to it. I refuse to go into a depression, hide from the world and show contempt towards those, and the company, who made that decision. From a business standpoint Im sure it was a tough decision but it was a wise decision and one used only as a last resort. Trust me when I say that I have no hard feelings towards anyone about the decision. It is what it is and thats that. In the past I have learned to give it all to God and to allow Him to show me the way therefore I will continue to follow Him. Faith in God is as a child that clings to its mother... feeling safe and secure from the world. So to wrap this up... please dont feel sorry for me but pray that I listen closely as God whispers His Divine Plans for me into my ears. And please be in prayers for all those that will be equally affected by the closing. Love and Peace to you all... NOW... gotta go spend time with My Queen. :)
