It what has seemed like a whirlwind of provision from the Lord--I am now employed at Boys and Girls Country (BGC) as a teaching parent. I start on Monday.
I am excited about this opportunity. I had been asking the Lord to give me a "home" and an outlet to invest my gifts, time, and energy for Him in my singleness. I have also been waiting for the Lord to open doors in a job like this for a few years now. Also, they ask for a 3 year commitment. I am ready to be in a place for at least 3 years; yet, another thing I have been asking the Lord for.
I start 3 weeks training on Monday, April 9! I have a subdued excitement about this move. There are so many things the Lord is providing through this job; however, I have done a similar job before and know that these first 2-6 months will be hard. I could become intimidated by what I might face, but I must rest in Him and that He has prepared for what lies ahead and most importantly has given me a heart for it.
I thought about sending out letters for prayer support for these first few months. However, instead, I just ask that if the Lord places it on your heart to pray for me, that you would do that. I would love to send you an e-mail with a little more information if you are interested in praying for me.
Well, that is the quick update on myself. After taking a needed sabbatical from blogging, I am planning to pick it up again. If you want to hear more about the adventures the Lord takes me on...then come back for more.
