So, Lord, we didn't get an answer on Wednesday. However, Amy had a second interview on Friday. Wait...we did get an answer. Amy reported that she has not been anxious. She is excited, she really wants this job, and she is open to whatever You lead her to do, but she is not anxious. That is an answer to prayer.
So thank You. Help me to be calm and trusting, too. I can say the words, but sometimes my heart rebels. I can feel it speeding up, and I can feel the upset in my stomach. I wish I could just order my internal organs to obey!
(Along those lines, I wish I could order my cholesterol levels to come down. That's for another post, yes?)
I keep telling her that I am praying without ceasing, or praying continually. May it be true! Calm her, and me, dear Lord. This entire movie (a la Francis Chan's Crazy Love) is not about her or me. You are the main character, the protagonist, the hero. We are only bit actors. You are the theme and the plot as well. Help us to see how we fit into your script, and help us to play our parts well--but ultimately, help us to let You be the star. Whatever happens to this job and to Amy's immediate future, whether it be Gordon or Esperanza, be glorified, Lord. She is willing to be used by You wherever You assign her. May that be true for me, too. For Jesus's sake and the sake of the extension of Your kingdom~Amen.
