Waiting For What's Best

Waiting for my plane from Madrid to Philadelphia, July 26, 2009.

My friend, Erin, and I were praying briefly this morning and her words resonated with me, "God, we know that when we wait for You, we wait for what's best for us."
Yesterday I received a call from a company in the Philadelphia area offering me a job, and today I got the letter in the mail. I start in two weeks.
This comes shortly before I hit the six month mark of unemployment, and exactly at the right time. I'll be working as a document management assistant, which means I get to scan, file and organize to my heart's content. It's a great job in a great place, and I'd love to talk more about it off the interwebs.
I'm also incredibly blessed because I already have a place to live (with family friends) and a church; a place where my spiritual foundation was built.
This is the next step in my path back to Spain. It's bittersweet, since I'll be leaving a lot of dear friends
in western Pennsylvania who have become family, but I'm excited for this new phase.
Please pray for me as I make a lot of decisions in the next two weeks, move across the state and say goodbye to some of my brothers and sisters in Christ. Pray that I serve the Lord well in this new job and mission post.
