Crossroads

Whew! This week has been crrrazy. I haven't totally digested it yet, actually. But, in a nutshell--

• I got an email last Friday that led to a "meeting" Monday at another school.
• The "meeting" (I'm quotationing it because it wasn't supposedly a formal interview) led to an interview on Tuesday.
• The interview on Tuesday (which I started crying in the middle of) led to a second interview on Tuesday (during which I continued to cry, and cry, and cry...seriously, it was ridiculous, but that's a long story...).
  
• The second interview led to a job offer.
• The job offer led to my having to call my current principal and superintendent to discuss said job offer.
  
• Discussion led to a shared conclusion that leaving my current spot would be BAD (semi-long story).
• That conclusion led to my declining the spot on Wednesday and digging back into my other new position at CL.
• My other new position (which I am very excited about, woohoo!) led to my moving about 20 loads of stuff from my old classroom to my new classroom today/night...I'm zonked! (And still not finished...)
• Then, once everything's finally relocated, that will lead to some MAJOR organizing. I'll take a picture of my "project" tomorrow and post it.

Seriously, crrrraziness! But I'm so very thankful. I've actually even experienced a shift in paradigm this week. Spiritually, I've always existed by the idea that when at a crossroads, either one way or the other is God's intended purpose. However, in speaking with my principal she told me about a sermon she thinks about often where God reveals to a man that "neither way is right" because "they both are right". Wow. Imagine that. This idea has rocked my world...like I said, I haven't totally digested it yet, but I'm thinking that here's where free will enters in...whatever we do, we do for God. Therefore, it does not matter sometimes which direction we go as long as we keep God in the center and work for His glory.

Hmmm...I'll be thinking more on this, and I can't wait for church tomorrow. Our God is an awesome God!
