I woke up at 8:00, to walk into the dining room to my husband telling me it was a day we needed to fast.
I agreed, but turned around and went back to bed because I knew I wasn't going to make it 10 hours without the STRONG temptation to eat. One of those "remove temptation from you" decisions, if you know what I mean.
11:30, I missed a call from ANAD, the company I was interviewing with because I was cleaning the house, but I called back as soon as I saw that I missed the call (I got their voicemail).
1:30, they returned the call and extended a job offer!
We're extremely speechless... all we can say is: Thank. You. Lord.
More next time on what exactly ANAD is and what I'll be doing :) In the meantime, thank you to all of you for your prayers yesterday and this morning. Prayer works!
Our life in the US...with our little dog, too!

Maybe, no Definitely
Our days and nights have been filled with worries about making the budget work, our dwindling savings, and how we just need me to find a job and it will all be alright.
Almost as if we forgot we watched Him provide for two years in Guatemala.
This weekend, on our way back from Holland (visiting Jordan's family), we listened to Jim Samra/Calvary's sermon from the 4th of July. At the beginning of our trip home, we talked about my job search and one potential upcoming position and our almost lack of faith.
Long story short, his sermon was about prayer and the importance of prayer. The sermon struck so close to home... it was time to get on our knees and fast.
Let me tell you, we've been prayin. And we're not sure if this job is going to work out and we don't think that praying will force it to work out, but we know He's listening.
Jordan's mom called me today to let me know they were praying for us, an hour later, the company I am interviewing at called for a list of references... a little sign that I'm moving through the process. I sent a little prayer above and within an hour, Karen (my boss/co-worker) at Franklin Property texted to say that she just spoke with the company as a reference. Prayer works.
Will you join us in prayer for a job, but more importantly, our trust?
Maybe that's what this whole experience is all about... trust. Wait, it's not a maybe, it's a definitely.
Why is it so hard to trust God's provision here, why was it so much easier in Guatemala?
