I wanted to start blogging again to stay on top of memories and keep family in the loop.
The last couple months have been a trying yet exciting time for us. I graduated March 20th, and then studied intensely for 2 straight weeks for about 10+ hours a day for boards....not fun! We found out my de-stressing activity of choice was walks walks walks with Mike and Sloane. Everyday at 4 we would go outside and walk. The morning of boards, Mike and Sloane were up and we were out walking before 7am....I will never forget that. They were incredible support for me. I grew closer to the Lord praying more and reading my Bible more and trusting Him. The most trying time for me was the week following....I was just sure that I failed....it was so hard! There were lots of tears, but I had great support from Mike and family and ultimately from the Lord. I had to wait an entire week....which seemed like a century. I got the results the Monday after that I had passed.....I was so happy and so was Mike. I couldn't have done it without all the prayers and support from family!
This leads us to our next chapter in life.....Arkansas. Thanks to Ty and Meag and their connections they have....we both have jobs for the first time! Mike has been interested in business and has wanted to go down a new avenue if God leaded him to it. We both applied....and both got interviews a few days following. We were stunned...we both had interviews the same day in the same location. We interviewed in Bentonville/Rogers, AR. Mike for Advantage Sales and Marketing and Ozark Orthopedic for me both within 4 miles of each other.
We both felt out interviews went ok. Mike got a call the day following with a position offered to him. I didn't know whether to scream or cry! With 3 and a half years of constant stress and hardship, God is taking care of us! I have never seen Mike so excited about this opportunity, and I am so excited to see how God uses him for His Glory!
I found out a week later that I had got my job also. I had felt so much peace about the clinic and how they treat patients with their ultimate goal to bring God glory. I had the chills....I just knew it was right.
Although it is hard moving away from family, we are open to where God is leading us and trying to be obedient to His perfect plan.
