thankful

Let me start with this: I am not going to be able to justify my feelings in words.. but I will try!

Today I felt joy - not just happiness... but joy. Last night I was visiting friends in B-Town and got a text from my dad telling me he got a full time job.

I believe god had this all sorted. While dad was in the running for this Egypt job, I was praying for my family..that they would be together..even if that meant Egypt.

Dad went for this job not knowing where it was or what it was really about.. Turns out it is in our home town and he is perfectly trained for the position. He started full time on Friday.

The significance of this is that 11 months ago my 64 yr old dad was going to a have a job interview (he retired but decided he wanted to go back to work). The day before his interview he fell and broke his leg quite badly and life changed for him from that day on. He couldn't do anything for himself anymore and has only recently been able to put shoes on again.

This job is a massive thing for him and I could not be more thankful for my god and his amazing ways.. even though dad doesn't know it yet.
