Are we going in a new direction?

It is so fun to watch God build our family and our lives. Sometimes it amazes me. No, not sometimes....all of the time! He just has a divine plan for our lives and we still try to take it into our own hands. We pray and think....God can do this, but in the back of our mind we think, but just in case, what is my plan? If only we could live our lives as faithful to Him as He is to us.

Back towards the end of February Danny and I began to pray about his job situation. Just about God's will and what he would have us to do. so, we decided, like we have many times in our marriage, to make a list and pray about very specific things for God to answer, and we decided to place a 6 months time period on it. Kinda strange sounding, but it is what we felt led to do. We felt led that if the things we were praying for did not come to pass by the end of the "time frame" it would be our way of knowing that it was time for danny to start looking for a new job.

Fast forward to present day....A few weeks ago someone came into the shop talking about a graphic design job coming open and wanting to know if they knew anyone that would be interested. Danny prayed about it and decided that he wanted to take a chance at it. Well, a week later before he could even get his resume to them they asked him to design something for them. They loved it and offered him the job! Crazy! Well, Danny and I are talking about it and praying about it and realize that it has been 6 months to the day that we started praying. God is AWESOME!!!!

Right now, we are waiting to see if everything is going to work out, but the end result is that God has our lives in the palm of His hand, how can we not trust Him!!!

I will update as I know more.
