Are you gals ready for this???
Sometime last week my hubs was looking online for some job openings for fun. I know, who does that??? He found this listing for an instructor at the college he graduated from in Waco and he thought, "What the hay? Why not apply?" So he did. Thursday afternoon they called him and asked him to come in for an interview on FRIDAY. He took off Friday afternoon and went. He returned and said he feels it went really well. He knew the two guys he was interviewing with and said he wouldn't be surprised if he got the job...and then turned around and said he wouldn't be surprised if he didn't. I think he's trying to protect his heart from disappointment.
We spent the whole weekend in Waco. It was really great...exhausting but great.
So, I know you're probably thinking we are absolutely NUTS right now BUT seriously, how random was that??!!! They told him they would let him know by Friday because they need the person they choose to start August 30th!!!!! when the new semester begins. Um, yeah. There is a slim chance we could be moving...back to Waco...two months after moving here...AAHHHHH!
Inside I'm feeling a lot of different emotions. Excitement, anxiety, a little stressed, overwhelmed. Pretty much a broad spectrum of emotions. I am loving life here. I love the friends we have began establishing relationships with. And I am finally satisfied where we are in life. Then this.
Maybe God was waiting for us, probably more like me, to be happy where I am before He saw fit to bring something even greater to our lives???
We hung out with some old Waco friends Saturday night and it felt like home. It was such a weird feeling. Sean and I talked on our way home about how much we missed our time with them and how no matter where we end up at the end of this that we will make it a priority to have meaningful relationships with people. Afterall, it's been close to two years since we've had ANY!
All that to say, this is one time in my life where I can with all honestly say that I will be okay with either way this situation plays out. Whether it's live in SM and invest our lives in this city or move back home and make our lives count for something greater. Either way, we will seek God's plan for our family and continue to fight for and protect friendships that the Lord brings our way, old and new.
So if you think about it, please be in prayer for our family. We want nothing but God's will to be done in our lives. We pray for vision, wisdom, direction and then the confidence to execute.
