The last month at church, the message has stuck me every Sunday and pulled at my heart. Today the message: Change. And again, I felt God letting me know everything will be ok. Everything that is taking place in my life right now is needed. Change is needed.

My last day at my full time job was Friday. Ironically/coincidentally it was almost exactly a year from when I went back to work full time. Halfway through the day, I received an email with my test scores. I was nervous. It was a hard test and I haven’t taken a test in years so I had prepared myself that I might have to take it again. I opened the email and before it loaded my scores, I said a little prayer. And again, God showed me His way, His plan to just trust in Him. I passed. I PASSED! I was so relieved. I thanked God and happily helped unpack offices and rooms I would never step foot in again without any complaints. I felt reassured yet again. And again I asked for forgiveness in doubting His plan.

As I left that day, I had this weird feeling. I wasn’t sad or mad or even hurt but disappointed in a way. I had  high hopes for that job and wanted to make it a career. I felt good about my decision so I was confused as to why I had these strange feelings, but then I turned on my Christian station and Hillary Scott’s song “Thy Will” came on and again God reassured me. Everything is happening just the way He wants and what He wants for my life.

So I have now passed my content test to teach High School Journalism, halfway through my online alternative teaching certification program and have already accepted some sub jobs for the month and have some playdates with friends on the calendar. His plan is moving along and I know it won’t be easy all the time and I will still go back to worrying and stressing at times, but when I do I’ll go back to His Word, go back to prayer and keep remembering…Thy Will be Done.
