Life is going to take a different turn in the next two weeks.
I have officially nine days left in my current job at my old high school. Since my contract was only for a year, and since the student I work with is graduating; I will not be at this job come the fall. I both grieve and find comfort in that simple fact. This job has had more challenges than I ever knew possible, but it's been rewarding. I have learned a lot; about life, children and even myself. I wouldn't change it for the world.
As of today, I have been asked to come on board and work for a company called Better World Books. It is only part-time to start with, having the potential to eventually turn into something more full-time. I will be working from home, on the Internet, dealing with customer service issues that arise. It will be cool to be able to work from home (or really anywhere with hi-speed Internet) and it will be strange to work on the weekends only-the opposite of what I'm doing now. I feel confident about it, though, because I feel like God has given me a couple green lights to continue forward in this. So, I'm pretty excited!
I do feel like I'm on the brink of yet another transition, yet I'm hopeful. I think this new time is going to be one of growth, with others and with God. I have no doubt that it will have its challenges, but as this past year has taught me; challenges help us mature as people and grow in our reliance on God.
with you i can attack a barrier, and with my God i can leap over a wall. -psalm 18.29
