Grace so Amazing

His grace covers me, I have to remember this. Today was one of those days when I pray that grace abounded.

Being the person that I am, it is difficult not telling my bosses about my plans and knowing that in a few short days (hopefully) I will do something that will change their immediate worlds for a period of time. This makes me sad. Every day they say something kind or encouraging to me, and I bite my tongue, knowing that in a few short weeks I will be gone.

This afternoon, on my lunch break, I took 2 tests for the company I have been interviewing with. An Excel and a Word test -- amazingly they were pretty difficult, though I finished with time left over and I do not believe I made many if any mistakes. Already distressed at having to take the tests at work, I emailed them to my recruiter and swiftly deleted the files from my work computer. TWO hours later I get an email, I had attached the Excel document twice, and left the Word document out. I quickly retook the test, and sent an email to let them know that I had permanently deleted the original earlier test from my computer. How bad does that look? I'm applying for an administrative position and I couldn't even attach the proper tests? I took the opportunity, however, to be honest and show my integrity.

These things happen. Blunders, mistakes, mishaps...why? God's grace. This happened so that I cannot rely on myself or my abilities. God's grace covers me and it will cover this situation. Thank you, Lord!
