And he's off...

Over six years ago I began praying for something that seemed out of reach.  A dream that seemed unattainable.  Before I go on I want to say that I almost hate talking that way - because I never ever want it to seem like I'm taking credit for anything.  I believe GOD placed a burden on my heart to start praying for a job for my husband at our large church in Colorado.  I began praying even when we were living in Michigan and he was still working at a church there.  I cried and gave up my prayers many times.  Doors were slammed in his face many many times.  But God kept working.  HE was paving the way that took a long time to get where we are today.   God opened up a door when continuing my prayers seemed useless.  Six and a half years after I remember praying a specific prayer, we are here today.  July 9, 2012.  My husband just walked out the door for his first day of work at our church.  I praise God for not giving up on us.  I praise God for seeing Peter's gifts and talents and opening a door for him to use them on a full-time basis.  I'm not stopping my prayers.  I pray now that God will bless the work of his hands.  That this ministry will be the perfect fit.

My eyes are ever on the LORD,
Jessica
