Brian called Sonshine on Tuesday morning. He could not take the anticipation any longer. He had to know if he was chosen for the job, or if he was back in square one. Well, square one it is. They were leaning towards someone with "more experience." The beginning is a tough spot to be when you haven't had the chance to gain experience. But our God is good and will provide all in His timing, as we already have seen. We know He wouldn't have blessed us with one miracle without thinking about the other. I am so proud of my husband though. When he found out, he didn't get discouraged. He said we have to rejoice and know that we are in God's will. He also shared with me a verse that he came across as he was reading his bible the next morning...
"In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith--more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire--may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ." 1 Peter 1:6-7
God is good and sometimes, it's okay to be in square one, because that is right where He wants us to be...
Amen Jamie. Remember that God uses all things, good & bad, for the good for those who love Him and are called by Him. He allows things to happen so that when He works them out, it is Him getting all the honor & glory. For God is a faithful and awesome God :)
