Yesterday I received my official acceptance letter to the teaching program. I was excited, but had mixed feelings because Thursday I received a call from a staffing company saying they found my resume on monster.com and they had a lead on a position that I could possibly fill. The next day my sister sent me a job posting from monster.com that was posted by the same company that called me. I didn’t tell her anything about the call, but she saw it and figured I was qualified for the job. It might have been for the same job.

I thought about it last night and prayed very hard for a decision to be made for me, then I changed my prayer to a request for me to be at ease with the decision I made. For quite a few reasons, I’ve chosen to enter the teaching program.

Although the pay would probably be better for the IT job, I think it’s time to move out of my comfort zone. I had written in my personal journal yesterday about how I have been at one job throughout my adult life, so I’ve gotten to know ADULTS. Now it’s time to work with children. I’m sure I have a lot to learn from them. I don’t see how I will grow as a person if I take the IT job.

So teaching it is!
