God's Plan

It seems like when life gets stressful I tend to stray from things such as this blog, but I'm back and I'm excited to share what has happened and how I can SEE God working in my life. In April I quit my job as a preschool teacher to be an Assistant Director at a tutoring place. The pay was great, the hours were nice, but the job was TERRIBLE. I tried to stick it out, but I just couldn't do it and be happy. I quit 3 months later and returned to the daycare that I used to work at. I didn't have a full time job secured, heck I didn't even have a part time job secured. I was subbing. A month later I run into a family who had taken the summer off and we chatted for a few minutes. I got hugs from all of the kids and we both went on our way. In a week I will be that families Nanny. There are so many places that I saw God working during these few months.

• I  learned that more money doesn't make things better and to judge future employers just as much as they are judging you. 
• I somehow worked a 40 hour week (sometimes more) every week once I got back to the daycare and never once held an actual position. I knew money would be tight taking such a HUGE pay cut, but God provided.
• If I wouldn't have left, came back, and stayed on the sub list I would have never been given the opportunity to Nanny. This to me feels like God's plan in action. 
• The same week that I was asked to Nanny I was also almost guaranteed a head teaching job at the daycare, I was torn, but I ended up not getting the teacher job. Pushing me to the right decision.
