Still Waiting

So, a few months ago the interim position I was filling came to a close; leaving me without a job and all the provision that comes with it. At the time I was totally freaking out because I just knew that God would open another door before that one closed. As the final weeks came to a close, I was sure that God was telling me to "stop looking for a job and start looking for Me; the phone will ring". How hard is that???

As a man and the provider for my family that goes against every part of my DNA. Sadly, it took several weeks for me to completely flesh that out. I hit my head on the wall so many times...and carried that burden, which is exhausting.

BUT, I remember the day I finally gave up...I stopped calling all my contacts...stopped looking at all the job postings...and stopped freaking out. It felt like I lost 100 pounds. I didn't know where work would come from. But I didn't care. I couldn't carry it anymore. 3 days later the phone started ringing. And it hasn't stopped ringing. I've travelled to lead worship more in the last 3 months than I have in the last 6 years.

God has continued to put work in front of me. I am, however, still waiting for God to open the door to a full time position somewhere. Still waiting. Only now I'm walking next to Jesus and sharing His yoke...and it' s much lighter.

Since we KNOW that God will take care of His children...worry and anxiety are like paying interest on free money. I'm not paying interest anymore.
I can't wait to have the details of what God's doing so that I can share them with you.
