OH, THE WEATHER OUTSIDE IS FRIGHTFULL......

Well as you could probably guess, we did not make it all the way to Frisco today. We left here about 8:00 a.m. only to be stopped before Abilene. We also slid off the road in between Miles and Ballinger. After that, David decided to try to drive to Abilene. But we didn't even make very far past Jim Ned. There were times that we were going 15-30 miles an hour.

So I called the assistant principal at the school where I was interviewing at at 3:00, and she happily rescheduled for next Tuesday at 12:30. Even though I know God can see tomorrow, and He definitely had His hand of protection upon us, I was still disappointed. Thank you Jesus for guiding us safely home. I know He kept us from harm, however I still felt let down. I was just ready to have this interview out of the way. I am so ready for all of this to be over with. I am ready to have a new job, new house, and be settled. See A. I am great at giving comforting advise, but when the uncertainty lingers, it is easy to get unhinged.

I hear the Lord saying to me on more than one occasion, to keep my eyes focused on Him. Put him first, seek Him first, make Him the first priority in my life. Oh Lord I am trying to the best of my ability, but sometimes my ability really stinks. Can I just have everything now? Can we just be done with all of this now? What patience, wait on Me, really Jesus are you talking to me?

Today as I was driving home from work and picking up the girls, I put in the c.d. from the retreat. Boy did it minister to me. Just to sit at Jesus' feet. Rest in His arms, soak up His love and peace and mercy and grace until we are able to stand up again.

Oh well life goes on and so will I . I look forward to having a great interview next Tuesday. I know that You are preparing a place for us!!!!!!!!!!

Once again I remind myself to rest in my Father's arms.

I am so glad you were kept safe. I can imagine the disappointment you felt, but truly better safe and postponed. Still praying for you.

I'm so glad you guys are safe. I worried like crazy after talking to you because of the weather. I know I shot up a bunch of prayers for you guys. Can Dave go down with you on Tuesday???? Let me know if not and I might be able to tag along.
