Blogs and jobs

So I decided it would be nice to start up a blog where I could talk about how God is moving in my life, my prayer requests, what I am dealing with/struggling with, doubts, fears, plans, and even just everyday occurrences. This way it when God blesses me there will be a record of it for all to see-and everyone can read along with me about God's great faithfulness in the mundane life of one of His many servants. :)

First off-I have been checking Edjoin and Herc.org every now and then for job postings for teaching positions in California. Recently I found one, at a JC in Saratoga, CA. At first, I thought I wasn't going to apply for it because the salary wasn't very high-about 20,000-which would not be enough to live off of in Saratoga! So I let it go without applying for it, but then when I checked back I saw that they extended the application deadline. So, for some reason I just felt a tugging at my heart to apply. Granted I would only be applying for a POOL from which I could be selected to teach later. Plus, there is the salary problem. But, since the position is part time only I could still apply for another job on top of it to help make ends meet. I think it would be worth it to live in Saratoga! It looks so beautiful! And I really feel pulled towards living in the bay area. That is my first choice of living in Ca.

I know there are so many reasons why this might not work out, but I am only applying, I'm not committing myself or getting over excited, and if it is God's will doors will open!

Then again, it could be God's will for me to stay here in Boston. We will see. I think it will start to become more apparent later, once doors start opening/God keeps them closed. Which is why I just want to take this step of faith and just see what God is going to do with it. So then I'll know. :) But please pray with me that I will see where God is leading me and not be influenced too much by what I want!
