I was just reminded of a few ways God has provided for me in the context of this journey.
First, one of the biggest items on my prayer list was securing a post-trip job before I left.
Check.
I'm excited to say that things fell into place without much effort. I secured a .6 art teaching job for next school year at the high school I graduated from. After praying about finding supplementary work (since a .6 salary won't cut it when it comes to paying the bills), an opportunity to additionally secure a .25 art teaching job at a k-8 school in the district landed in my lap with no effort on my part. God is so good!
Second, another item was figuring out living arrangements after my trip.
My original plan was to secure a room/roommate(s) before I left. I soon realized that this would be a tall order. Instead, my plans and expectations have changed. My current plan is to live at home for no more than a month, which will give me time to readjust into the US in a familiar, stable environment, and provide an ideal work commute. I am currently pursuing a couple roommate options and am trusting God will reveal where and with whom he wants me to live.
Third, I have been overwhelmingly blessed in regard to financial support. Unexpected individuals have been coming out from the woodwork, eager to give. And while I'm not at 100%, I'm excited to pour a significant amount of money into this trip from my own account.
Yes, I have been blessed.
Thank you, God!
