To echo everyone else, I am THRILLED for you. I truly believe in that saying…when one door closes, another one opens. I’ve witnessed it firsthand. You know I’m all for loving what you do and doing what you love. It’s been my theme for the year. I truly hope this new position is “you.” Don’t stop writing though!

After I take the test, I’ll post mine.

I just took that test this week and found some things I already knew, and some I didn’t care to be reminded of. Post to come shortly. I’m a Provider (ESFJ).

Congratulations! From the few weeks I’ve been around here, I know this is huge. More importantly, what a testimony of your faith walk. Now, going forward, on the next round of faith building just say to yourself, “Hold up! I know He can do it!” With every life experience with God, we go up the ladder of faith and believe for bigger and sometimes better miracles.

Celebrating in my spirit for your victory! I know that God has great things planed for you, and your rewards are many. Go, teach, and share your God-given talents and skills!

@KWiz - Thank you, K! It's amazing how God works...once I discovered that this was what it was, it was like the path was clear and the job was sitting at the end of it, just waiting. That is just some good stuff right there!

Congratulations Marva! When you know what you’re called to do, you have to know that God is going to lead you to that which you are supposed to have. It happened to me, and it can happen to anyone, I believe, who seeks God’s will for their lives. It just doesn’t happen as pretty as people think it should. You were unemployed for a couple of months, which must have been uncomfortable. But God doesn’t do comfortable.

I remember when I thought I was supposed to pursue a Ph.D. in Biblical Studies to go on to teach on the college and university level after I finished my M.Div at Emory. That didn’t work out. And I didn’t know what I was going to be doing. Yet, God led me to teaching at a place I had never heard of – and that was eight years ago! It is the most fun, but hardest work ever. But teaching is my calling.

By the way, according to that description you begin with, I’ve got a long way to go! But I love what I do. And I love my students!
