From the encouragement of Lexi I am posting this today. I haven't written much lately because I feel like NOTHING is going on with me. I finished substitute teaching this school year and now I am spending every day submitting job applications and/or talking to temp services trying to see what happens next. If I come up with no summer jobs or just a temporary summer job I will be a substitute again in the fall. If God does bring me a good permanent position I will spend a while "detouring" the education field and wait to see what happens with that. Hmm... it is a rather frustrating and somewhat discouraging point in my life. In an attempt to NOT be depressing (I am writing a blog about it after all....) here are a few things that I feel like God is working on in me during this time.
1) Facing some general fears and improving my trust in Him
2) No more planning my life... letting him take care of it
3) Submission to things I really don't want, and trying to be genuinely thankful about them
4) More time to study and read and draw close to God
5) Growth in my relationship with Phil
6) Time to be a blessing to others around me
I suppose with all of these things I must be thankful for God's work in my life. He is working in me and changing me - so no matter how strange and unknown things feel, I am glad that there is purpose in that.
