He is Amazing!!!

It has been a couple of weeks since I lasted posted but I must tell everyone that things have been going well! Once again God has answered our prayers! I think it only human nature to still question even after He continues to provide for us but looking back there are times when I am ashamed that I do so. As many of you already know Andrew has been in school obtaining a second degree in Forestry. He has been in school full time for about a year but we knew that this upcoming summer he would not be able to take any classes due to scheduling. So we had hope and of course prayers that he would be able to find something in the forestry field during that time. After speaking with one of his teachers about how the economy was really affecting the job market we were left with little hope and I personally was feeling a little lost in my own pity. I don't know when I will learn my lesson... last Friday Andrew was talking to a guy in his class who was leaving a job to take a new full time position. He mentioned to Andrew that he should look into taking his place, about that same time Andrew's teacher walks in. They talk about the position for approximately 2 minutes and his teachers says "oh yea Andrew I was thinking about you for that job, actually let me call the guy right now" Boom, an interview is set for the next morning! Andrew goes in, meets with the two owners and is offered the job that same morning! What?! I would say things like this don't happen for us but I should alter this statement to say God is showing us His way. I believe that we are both finally on the path He has had planned for us and through our resistance He was not going to make it easy. Now that we have chosen to be submissive and truly listen He has in all ways possible made this flow more smoothly than we could have ever imagined. I do not and can not thank Him enough.

As a little side note as I am sure everyone has been on pins and needles (sarcasm here) wondering how my bod pod went with the new trainer I thought I would give you a tiny update! Chris - aka new trainer - is super nice/not intimidating in the least and the bod pod was actually pretty interesting! I need a re-do because I ate and drank something two hours before which apparently is against the rules! So my results were skewed...hopefully by A LOT! Update on the re-take soon! The workouts are going very well and I am finally happy to say I am excited to go to the gym again! Chris has been giving me a lot of great things to do and the with the combination of my spin classes and training sessions I am finally back into going everyday! It was definitely time and hopefully I will start to see some success from my work sometime in the future! NOW if I could just get control of the diet part...yick!
