I was journaling the other day (I need to do that more often) and I looked at the date on the last time I wrote in it. "Nov 23rd 2013" it read. I realized that it was about time to catch the future me up on what has happened over the past 2 months. I was shocked at how any things had been happening, that had been changing.
1. I wrote late last year about how I had prayed about a new job. I prayed that God work it out for His glory and that I wasn't going to seek out a job. If He wanted me to have one He would give me one.
Before I had really prayed about getting a new job I went to a local deli and asked if they need any help. They didn't. I took it to mean that it wan't God's will and before I could sulk about it He dropped two houses in my lap to clean.
I got a call recently out of the blue telling me that two positions had opened up at the deli and the owner wanted to know if I was interested, and if I was she wanted me to come out and fill out an application!
God is so good!
2. Mission opportunity after mission opportunity has been laid in my lap recently. I am currently praying for guidance on all of them. What a blessing!
3. I am making new friendships and learning how to leave some by the wayside. That's hard. Real hard. I believe that everyone crosses your path for a reason. Some people pass through teaching you something along the way, and some are to stay with you forever.
4. We have a new preacher at our church. He's a neat dude and I have a feeling that we are going to like him a lot.
5. The adoption is almost complete! That is change that I like a lot!
I believe that this year is going to be one of fast change. It's going to be a crazy, wild, fun, and heartbreaking ride.
