Closed Doors & Open Windows
It may seem to be a trite saying, but I do believe that when you run into a closed door you'll find a window open somewhere.
No, I didn't get the clinic job, but I will be starting two part time jobs which will give me plenty of hours and the flexibility I've been looking for.
Waiting for an answer to prayer can sometimes seem interminable, and a bit nerve-jangling. When the answer isn't what you expected, you can be disappointed.... or paradoxically, relieved. That's what I felt when the clinic job didn't materialize. I had the answer to my prayer: God had something else for me.
Feel that fresh breeze? The window's open!

Stories like that amaze me everytime I hear them! We don't get what we thought we wanted and end up getting what we need.

I am happy for you. But don't open that window too wide! (The snow might come blowing in.)

I just love God. He is so cool. I am glad he doesn't need my help, cause I tend to mess things up. Good luck on those jobs!

I'm all too familiar with closed doors,lately.A lot more than I'd like. But no open windows so far.
