Earlier this week I was very disouraged in my search for a teaching position. I talked to quite a few friends, received alot of advice, and prayed. I started preparing a little differently for interviews. I had pulled up a file of stories from the last three years working in an elementary school so that I would be ready to share specific examples when asked any number of questions. I trusted and I prayed. Really, why do I doubt so easily? God has lead me in this process in so many incredible ways and yet when the slightest problem occurs I doubt. Not today Satan, not today!
This morning I had my fourth interview for an elementary teaching position. I felt really good in the interview and afterwards. I didn't second guess any of my answers. I felt not only secure about what I said but excited about what they said about their school. I don't want to get into the specifics about the school but if you know my background and me then you would understand how perfectly aligned I am for this school.
A few very short hours later I received the phone call. "I hope I can make your day even better by offering you the third grade position at Big Lake Elementary!" I started to cry. I was so genuinly excited. She went on to tell me, "you're job search is over, you have found a home, welcome to our family!" Those perfect words washed over me and melted me.
I am excited for what this next school year has to bring. I am ready to move forward into my future and enjoy this beautiful summer that God has laid before me!
