imogen heap made me ramble...

It's feeling like winter. It's hard to believe that three weeks ago it was 70 degrees. It was 7 degrees on Friday morning as I drove into the city for my weekly breakfast crepe with some of my co-workers.

So the interview/meeting went really well yesterday. Thanks for your prayers!! I could tell you all were praying. The job sounds great, and with great potential to move up to an Account Executive very quickly. However, I know where my heart really is, and I don't feel at peace taking a job that I know I will be leaving pretty quickly - even if I do give them at least a month or two notice. But, I still told her I would "think" about it over the weekend and let her know on Monday. So I could still use your prayers. It's looking more like I may continue with my current company, but on a part-time basis. Of course, this would mean I'd be with out insurance (again), but I will still pay for catastrophic insurance (I know this is so interesting :) ). I'm still in awe of how the Lord has basically taken me out of having to make the decision of when to leave my job, taken me out of having to tell my employer that I'm leaving, has still provided two part time jobs for me...in my mind, leaving (my job) NOW is NOT the best thing. But I guess that's not my decision at this point :) I'm hoping for a really large tax return!

So, it's looking like I'm going to have more of that time for support raising that I've been whining about not having for the last six months...no excuses now! :)

Jesus and I had a really good conversation last night in the car - I think the Spirit's really been showing me my sin lately - and not just the "surface" stuff - it's been the really deep, dark stuff - the unbelief, the wanting to be in control, going to everything but my Jesus to soothe my soul...hm. Even something like engrossing myself in episodes of "Ugly Betty" so I don't have to talk to my Father or face what's going on in my heart...using the TV show as an "escape", rather than sitting in the pain, loneliness, ache - and asking my Jesus to meet me there and bring HOPE and TRUST and FAITH and JOY back into my heart...

Anwyay, life is certainly an adventure - and I LOVE it. A good friend just emailed Psalm 34 to a bunch of people today...

1 I will extol the LORD at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips.
2 My soul will boast in the LORD;
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
3 Glorify the LORD with me;
let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.
6 This poor man called, and the LORD heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him,
and he delivers them.
8 Taste and see that the LORD is good;
blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
9 Fear the LORD, you his saints,
for those who fear him lack nothing.
10 The lions may grow weak and hungry,
but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
11 Come, my children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 Whoever of you loves life
and desires to see many good days,
13 keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from speaking lies.
14 Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
16 the face of the LORD is against those who do evil,
to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
19 A righteous man may have many troubles,
but the LORD delivers him from them all;
20 he protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.
21 Evil will slay the wicked;
the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
22 The LORD redeems his servants;
no one will be condemned who takes refuge in him.
