Today is the day that I get to let it all out.
I have been hired as the new Children's Director at First United Methodist Church. YAY!!!!!!!!
I am very excited about this new direction God is taking us. I have always felt that working with children is a gift. It is wonderful to think that I will have the opportunity to shape so many little hearts and minds toward the things of God.
Chris is totally 100% on board with it. I guess he needed something a little closer to the church he grew up in to be comfortable... Although I couldn't see it happening, my prayers have been answered.
The top prayer concern on my list for the last 6 1/2 years was to have my husband by my side at church each Sunday. There is more to that request than mere presence at a specific location, but God is working. I have learned that when God works, it's best to just step aside.
I will complete my term as Music Teacher at my kids' school on Friday, March 13.
As you teachers know, Friday March 13 is a special day. It is the release day for Spring Break.
I will officially begin working at FUMC on Monday, March 16. *Please refer to my teacher's mindset for hidden meaning.* :)
There are so many thoughts rolling around in my head right now.
How will this work?
Does anyone want to volunteer? :)
Will my kids adjust well?
What curriculum will I use?
Where's the coffee pot?
Will I be expected to be the item of choice in the dunking booth for the Fall Festival?
Will Part B of the plan come to fruition? (Chris's Job)
WHEN will part B of the plan come to fruition?
The questions are plentiful. There are so many more than this.
The only answer I have...
I fully believe that God has orchestrated this entire thing. And as He always does when putting together a symphony, God knows what it will sound like when it's finished.
Ahhhh......
Thank you God for answering our prayers in Your time, in Your way, on Your terms, for Your glory.
