What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger

Well, I am giving this blog thing a try. I love to journal and I think this will be a good outlet.

I am currently seeking an elementary through middle school teaching position as was our goal in moving to Texas so that Dustin could go to ministry school. Dustin and I have worked very hard to get to this point. I am so proud of him for working so hard to make sure his family could undergo such a journey. We moved away from all of our family and friends to embark on what I like to call "Uncharted Territory."

Two years ago, principals were knocking me down wanting to hire me. Since then, they have had an overwhelming response, and there are over three hundred applicants per position open here. However, it is pretty plain and simple in my perspective as I know God told me to be a teacher. God has given me grace and a supportive family to finish school, and by golly He's not going to leave me high and dry now.

I have had days of absolute heartbreak thinking about all the bills to be paid without my getting a job. God helped me through that and reminded me of all He has done for me. Now, I am at the point where I know without a shadow of a doubt, that we will be provided for. It has been hard for me not to be sad and anxious as now I feel that my heart would stop beating if I weren't able to teach. I guess that is what happens when someone's purpose is threatened. However, I am victorious through Christ Jesus...so I will keep you updated on the process of my miracle.

Your prayers are appreciated.
