I can pinpoint exact moments in my life when I was truly on track with the Lord's plan for my life. Once again, the Lord has been pointing me in the way he wanted me to go. All summer long I searched and searched for jobs. I applied for more than I wish to remember and interviewed for not nearly enough. To only be in the right place as the right time talking to a friend who pointed me in the direction the Lord wanted me.
I have since been hired by the Iron County School District to be a Special Ed Teachers Aide. This was not a job I had a strong desire to apply for, but Jared and I both felt as though I needed to. Sure enough, it was in fact the one job, out of all the others, I needed to apply for. I interviewed on a Monday. They called and hired me Monday night. There was training on Tuesday and Wednesday. Then school started Thursday.
It is a challenging job. I can't remember the last time I came home from four hours of work so tired, but I know it is where I need to be. I am grateful for the Lord's guidance in my life and for all the many opportunities that have been awarded to me and to Jared.
Jared starts school on Monday. Neither of us are looking forward to the semester he has ahead of him, but I know he will do great. As for me, I work about 20 hours a week at Iron Springs Elementary and about 20 hours a week for the SUU Athletic Department. I am so grateful to have jobs that fill my time so I don't lose my mind.
We are so blessed and couldn't be more happy for where we are at in life.
