open door for l...

my girlfriend just told me that she got a verbal offer on a job...God is SO good...

we have been in prayer..seriously for the last year...there have been other job postings...and interviews...and many disappointments...but through it all...as doors were slammed shut...and there were moments of "come on God...throw me a bone here..." the right job has been placed in her lap...

well not placed...she did have to do the work...but as i heard of the job description...it was really a job that was tailor made for her...;o) yeah...not a coincidence...

i am still so amazed at God's goodness towards us sometimes...i am still amazed at His timing...
i probably shouldn't be...but i kinda like that i am...because then the "surprises" God places in our lives are that much more meaningful...

looking back is always easier...to see the hand of God work to orchestrate such an event...now that the verbal offer is received...it is easy to say...it was worth the wait...but lets face it...the waiting is not easy...

there are times my girlfriend felt forgotten...felt over-looked...felt discouraged...but we kept claiming His promises...and we kept praying...and we kept believing that there was just something better suited for her...

i am proud of you l...you held on to His promises...you didn't give up...you stayed loyal in your present position...even at times when it was difficult to do so...not because of you...but because of others and their lack of respect for your work...their attitude that you would just always be there...and take it...

i know the year has been rough...and through all the closed doors...you grew stronger and more devoted to your Savior...and now...the door has been opened for you...

i am excited at what this new position brings to you...and above all - i know that His light will be shining through you...every day...

i love you!
