Not So Patiently Waiting...

Another dear friend of ours had quit her part-time job to get back into teaching. After many interviews and many prayers, she still did not have a full-time gig, only some subbing here and there. Her family needed this additional income to make ends meet and each time the door seemed to be closed. So each week we all prayed for her interviews asking God to open a door. Well, after a few more weeks and no job, we were getting frustrated. Perhaps God had a different plan for her?

Then we got a call from her with great news. She had been offered a job at the school of her choice (the one close to her house and where her kids were presently attending) a school where there had been no openings. Who knows what all God did to “free up” a spot. And while we saw nothing significant coming from our prayers, He was busy at work and gave her a position that was better than that for which we had prayed.
