How I Ended Up In Costa Rica

It is a weird but funny story. God told me in the Fall of 2006 to not resign my contract for work. I was like okay God whatever. Then the time to resign contracts came up in the Spring of 2007. I took the letter thing we had to sign and placed it on the alter at church one Saturday night and I prayed and cried over that thing. God gave me scriptures that I wrote on the outside of the enevolope. I knew that God wasn´t going to let me be 100% sure about my decesion that I was going to make. He was going to make me have faith in him. So I asked God to let me be Gideon and test him abit. I asked God on that night that he would give me a peace that I didn´t understand when I placed that enevolope on my boss´s desk, no matter what I marked. I prayed some more on Sunday and then on Monday I placed the enevolpe on my boss´s desk markedwith the reply that I would not be coming back next year to teach. I was okay with the decsion I had made. I was working the summer term and I figured I could save up money to hold me over while I looked for a job during August. I started to get a little worried when I only had 2 months left till I was jobless. So I applied to work at the Boys Ranch that Danielle works at. I just knew that God had sent this job to me and that I would be perfect at it. So I applied for it and started to add up all the money I would be making. It was going to be more than I had ever made. But I got the call that I didn´t get the job because they needed someone right away and I am not one of those people who just leave their job when they have committed to work till a certain day. I will have to write more later beacuse my time is up.
