Season of Lent for 2 years

I feel like I've been in the Season of Lent for over 2 years now. My life has been turned upside down and sideways the past few years. I lost my job in the banking industry and haven't been able to find another one. I was involved in a lot of things at the Church that I am no longer apart of (Music Mostly is the thing I miss most). God has placed me in other things at the Church though and I am constantly learning. I've been feeling lost, overwhelmed and invisible. I was reminded last week though my study in Isaiah that God sees what I am doing and he knows my heart and loves me no matter what even if I may not get a Thank you or any kind of reconition any where else.
I may not really know what all I am supposed to do but I know God has me here for a reason and I'm trusting that God will always be there to see me and make sure my heart is in the right place when I do things. I think God just wants me to be quiet and be still and know that he is God. I am so used to having a set schedule and now I'm pretty open so whatever God needs me to do during the week I can do it. Whether it's helping out a friend when they need a last minute babysitter, or calling a friend to see how they are doing, or whatever. It's not easy for me just to be still and quiet but right now that's where I am at.
