does this really happen? (part two)

Let me tell you a cute little story, with a wonderful ending.

So, remember the post titled, "whew, that was a close one"? Well, there's much more to it! So, in short, I had an opportunity, and I had to turn it down. I was really upset about it. I followed the promptings of the spirit and I'm glad I did. Here's what happened!

Two days later, another, BETTER work opportunity was presented to me. If I had taken the first opportunity, I wouldn't have been able to take this one. I changed my schedule back to the way it was, and things were good. If I had left my schedule unchanged, I wouldn't have been able to accept this position. Also, because I listened to the Lord, someone else took the first opportunity. This person needed the position much more than I did, because they had recently been laid off. Not only was my life blessed, but many other people, too! Just because of a silly work opportunity! I feel so lucky to know the reason why I needed to turn it down. Most people never know the reason why they are prompted to do certain things. But within 2 days, I did!

Alright, I know the suspense must be killing you, so I'll just get on with it and tell you the good news already. I am the newest adjunct teacher at Utah Valley University. I will be teaching the simultaneous interpreting class next semester. I am ecstatic! I love interpreting and I can't wait to be teaching it!
