The Lord has Blessed Me, I will sing His praises.

Well, after months of frustration, stress, twitching eye lids, and sometimes despair, the Lord has shown me great blessing by giving me a job. Assuming all the paperwork goes through and no nasty suprises happen, I will be teaching at Bonham High School next year. I am very excited about this opportunity, and I know the Lord has extremely blessed me.

It's been an interesting battle. And I truly mean battle, as it has been a battle with myself. I have never doubted that God would provide what I need, as He has been so gracious to me in the past. And yet, I wanted some very specific things that were by no means need. I toiled over finding the right position, and whether or not to accept certain jobs, wanting to find a place in a specific area, and to how much value I placed these things. Furthermore, the Lord never had to provide for me through a teaching job. There were many other answers. Also, I struggled with praying and trusting God and doing the work necessary. Unfortunately I probably did not have the "peace that passes understanding" often enough, and I am disappointed with myself in that. But the Lord is faithful because He cannot deny Himself.

There have been many people who have helped me with the process, and I praise the Lord for them and their help. Thank you for what you have done.

Praise the Lord!
