To Work or Not?? That WAS the Question.

I have been subbing for lunch recess at the kid's school lately. This is the job I want - when it is time. Twice in the last 2 weeks I have thought it was time. The first time someone quit to move to a different job within the school system. I thought that was going to be my "in". The more I thought about it, the more the ping pong game in my head became more fierce. Finally, (and it was what I should have done first anyway) I decided to pray about it. I told the LORD that I needed to know what He wanted me to do. I was too dumb witted to figure it out for myself. The next day I went into school and found out that after one day, the girl who quit decided that this job was not for her and she was coming back. Praise the LORD! There was my answer! So, I was fine. Content to continue subbing. Then another lady quit. Oh my word - here it goes again. I even talked to a secretary and she said the principal would put in a good word for me, and no one (from the inside) would want this job. So, I instantly started the prayer process again. Was I really supposed to do this? What about Grant? What am I supposed to do? Later that day, I found out that a bus driver (an insider) wanted the job. That meant I was out. Again, praise the LORD!!! It's not that I do no want the job, because I do. I just want it in the right timing - God's timing. Obviously, I am supposed to stay with my Granty-boy and give him the time I should. I am so thankful for God's answer to my prayer - even if it is not exactly what I thought I wanted to hear.
