Crazy Amazing Love!

So last night was our first real bible study with our newly formed small group of couples...of which Lisa and I are the only ones to not have little ones, but that's 100% fine for right now says Lisa (which I'm fine with too). Any hooooooo, it was an amazing night as we all opened up just a touch to eachother about things we struggle with or fears each of us may hold. It's just truly amazing to think how blest I am, God has given me an absolutely amazing wife, loving family, friends and now some of my friends are only going to get to be closer friends!

Life is just great right now to be honest!

God gave Lisa a teaching job after being able to be an aid for a year, as God blessed me with a great job with benefits...even if not one using my education degree. God always seems to know more for some reason. He gave me a job I enjoy, Lisa the ability to work in the schools till a full time job opened up and
BAM!

It worked out like it was designed...which it probably was! All the fear, anxiety and worry filled nights I had over wanting her to get a teaching job are now over, and now I just have to be patient as I await to see what God wants to do with my life. Applications are still out in the schools, and will be updated this fall. I just need to embrace what God gives me, and make the most of any situation because if there's one thing he keeps showing me time and time again is the silver lining is there, but sometimes you have to put your faith in Him and be patient to be able to see it.

God, thank you for Lisa's job!

 There is no greater gift I'll recieve for quite some time than the joy it brought me when I learned she was officially a teacher! If you find it in your design for me, allow me to one day teach as well, but if your will is different for me allow me the ability to embrace whatever it may be and run with it!


Keep on keepin on folks...and don't forget to embrace what you've been given for in a twinkle of an eye the silver linings caused by it can be overlooked.
