That was what the pastor preached on this morning. Of course, it was in Spanish, but it was still a very needed message for me to hear. I'm in a weird transitional stage right now. I was telling my roommate yesterday that I feel like I'm at a jumping off point, but I have no idea where I'm going to land.
The job scene is probably the most frustrating issue for me right now. I've been looking for jobs, interviewing for jobs, then waiting to see if they work out. So far, they haven't been working out. The particular job that I am currently in process with seems to be fizzling out as well. I'm getting strung along hoping that I will find out something each week only to find out that the person I talked to either doesn't know or is out of town and cannot contact me.
So, I go back to the search again. I have many options, but it seems like each path that I pursue leads to a dead end. I don't know what God is up to with all of this, but I know He's got something up his sleeve. I don't think it is coincidence that nothing seems to be working out right now. Either He's trying to teach me something, or He has something else in mind for me and He's wanting me to wait for his timing. So despite my frustration at not working right now, I still know that God is in control of this situation, and He is proving to me His ability to take care of me no matter what.
A New Orleans Oddity: Did you know that there can be and 80% chance of strong thunderstorms for this parish, but we won't get a drop of rain. This has happened several times since I've been here. The weatherman promises rain, but we don't get any. I guess it's better than him saying we'll have sunny skies and it rains all day.
