This week I've been waiting all week to hear back from Gymboree play&music to see if I'll be their newest baby gym instructor.
The more that I've come to learn of their company and what they do exactly, the more excited I've been getting. And really, who doesn't love a group interview in socks teaching grown ups your favorite kid songs?!
Today is the deadline for them to give me a yes or no after calling my references and a very thorough second interview.
I feel so weird because knowing that it's a year commitment and they will reign in a new priority to my other commitments and my ability to freely help with anything whenever sort of freaks me out. But at the same time I have so much peace and I know that it's only because Jesus has spoken peace to my heart and brought me near by His precious blood.
You see, I love working. But I love to put my whole self into what I do. I've never had the work to survive or work to pay the bills mentality.( I've never wanted it either!)
I've been so privileged to work minimally while in college and really throw my time and efforts into the ministry the Lord has given me and the people the Lord has placed around me.
I love it.
I love that I can watch people's kids consistently and have relationships with my church family and my high school students simply because the Lord has made me available. Such a blessing.
As I enter the prospects of a new job, I wonder what the Lord will do in me and how or if He'll allow me to maintain that availability.
I've come to realize that I am not,in fact, lacking in ambition but that my dreams aren't like other peoples.
I want a family. I want to be a good woman, and friend, and servant of wherever/whoever/whatever the Lord places in front of me.
I pray that through whatever season the Lord takes me that I'll follow closely and submitted and always have time for His people.
