Listen to the Whisper

Hi. What an amazing week! What an awesome experience! What timing.

The day after I wrote my last post, I went online and did some research, contacted some people, and in the last few days, have had two meetings with people about a new direction for my life. I told Jeff the other day "I've sent out 26 teaching apps and had only one interview and NO phone calls for more. I ask a few people to be references for me, and the Lord opens a window!" He truly works in amazing ways.

Of course, this does not necessarily mean that I will get the positions for which I have pre-interviewed for in the past two days! (Yes, I am serious - resumes out on Monday, meetings yesterday and today --- compared to the above teaching stats!) BUT --- I feel...content, at peace!

There is a great song on the radio...

"Sometimes He calms the storm/with a whispered peace be still.
He can settle any sea/but it doesn't mean He will.
Sometimes He holds us close/and lets the wind and waves go by.
Sometimes He calms the storm/
Other times He calms His child.

My realization that there is a plan and that its not on my clock...has made me feel at peace. I feel that while storm may still rage, I have been calmed! More to come on this new journey! Have a great week.
