On a whim...

Let me first say that God is SO FAITHFUL! These last couple of days have been nothing short of amazing, and just a true glimpse of what God can do for those who deligently seek Him, and are obedient.

A few weeks ago, I started Beth Moore's bible study called "90 Days with Jesus." I love Beth Moore, and really wanted to spend more time studying during my quiet times, and being on purpose. It has definitely been working...

If you remember my last post, it was filled with anxiety, frustrations, just lots going on, and I am so thankful to my sweet friends who identified themselves as prayer warriors on my behalf. THANK YOU! I truly believe that prayer is so powerful, and I was so comforted knowing that so many of you were praying for me. IT WORKED...

I left for Houston on Wednesday, and had an interview on Thursday. To make a long story short, I really didn't feel a peace about the offer. I knew I would get the job after my second interview on Monday, the money is MORE THAN ENOUGH, but I really didn't feel like God had brought me to that place. However, I still hate to admit that I still thought that that was all God had for me, His child...

So fast forward...this morning, I'm getting ready for the day, and I notice that I had missed a phone call. I think I actually said, "who's working on the 4th of July," because I recognized that it was a Houston number...I called the number back, and it was Mr. Tomas, from a school district outside of Houston. My good University friend Kendra hooked me up with a contact, and he called me today. Now, I haven't met this man, but he sounded so sweet, and totally like the type of person I'd like to work for. I love the campus I am leaving behind, and he sounds like it would be the same atmosphere, and that is very important to me...

So, on Monday, I will go for another interview, and I'm claiming I will have great news to share...

Now, let me tell you this awesome story...so after my interview, I went to U of H to have lunch with Malitta, and she says that Jill Scott is in town for a concert that night! So, on a whim, we decided to see if we could "somehow" secure tickets to a SOLD OUT show...read between the lines...

Well, we didn't have to buy scalped tickets, lol, there were 4 great seats left, and we bought them! That would have NEVER happened in Waco...it was such a, "I live in Houston" moment..LOL!!! So, I got to hear great music and I had an awesome time!

I'm headed back tomorrow and will be there for a couple of days. I saw the house...the brick is up, the tile is laid, I have cabinets, and the walls are painted...it looks AWESOME!!! I will post some pictures...keep praying, and God is amazing!
