I recived an interview request on a job I actually applyed to (!) I had to decline it.
Which was so wired ðĪŠ , becauce I never been in that situation before, but I already had a job. ððâïļ.
I had to share it with my nearest friends, before here.
The Lords way isn’t ours!
He showing us which way to walk if we trust Him.
My testimony is in my blog, how my rollercoaster Spring went from chaos to prayeranswers.
One after the other. How the Lord showed me love by trusting Him even the day’s when everything felt nothing but chaotic.
My testimony is real. It’s my life.
The Lord literally is a part of my life and Faith.
He challenges me to do things his way when some, non Christian some Christian, who don’t understand how I dare to just jump into something so unsure future.
It’s all about Faith.
You need to have faith and believe in what you doing even during the doubting!
It’s interesting how the Lord works! Ten years ago before I moved back to Oslo area the Lord gave me some hints about why I needed to move to Oslo area. What I needed to wait for, when living there, before being able to move back to the west coast.
Sunday April 18th, I went through some online preaching I haven’t listen to just “added” to my list to “some day I will start to listen to them”. And in one of the podcast’s they had questions in the end. One of the question where “what are you waiting on?” And I thought, this is perfect to this blog! What are you waiting on,haven’t the Lord answered your question or is itsomething else you waiting on? You who following my blog.
Why do we need to Wait on things?
Two of my closest girl friends needed to get married and become pregnet or even have a child before I could move. An interesting sentence from the Lord to recive. What about me? Should I wait even longer before I met “my hubby”???
An other thing was that the Lord needed to work within me and with me. Which He has. As one of the things ” a hubby “. When I was 19 y.o. I told everyone who asked me about life that I didn’t wanna have my own kids, which probably was a bit wierd to most people,sadly most of them were Christians. ” it will past ” they said. Like it was a cold or something… ð. But I haven’t ever had a feeling of “need to become pregnet” becauce I would rather have fosterkids or helping families who needs it with their kids when the time comrs for that. I just wanted ” a hubby “.
All about Believing.
It was a new journey a head of me. And I have to say a lot of things has happend with me, my faith and my friends those years.
We are all waiting on something.
A short story from those last ten years…
In 2011 I had to find something to do…
In 2012 I took an other course becauce I could not go back and work in kindergarten after November 2010, when I injured my back.
2013 I had a knee surgery and eleven months of physiotherapy. I had to learn to walk again.
In 2014, still no work, still a bad back. New longer course. But it didn’t leed to a job…
2015 – 2017, different types of administration and Hotel. BUT in 2015 I asked the Lord about moving and the thing I recived was “wait”. And in 2017 one of my closest friends got married. Was this an other sign?
2018 the year of many changes! My first job I kind of liked for 5 months. In May I started the fifth course (during those last seven years) which actually was of interest!! May 18th, the other close friend got married ðð. Now I knew time would not be to far away for ” the move back to the west coast ” In August I got my foot in to my first propper work in years ððĪĐð. The first school job, was this the job I had “been looking for all those years of waiting ?” It was a open door from the Lord. But it wasn’t ” the job “. I also knew other things needed to get in place…
2019 came, I got a new job, where I am now. And I know the Lord wanted me here.
In 2020 came Corona and my contract was extended until 2021. ðĪĐ. I moved from Oslo community to BÃĶrum community. A start on getting out of Oslo, the City I never liked but stayed there becauce the Lord wanted to use me there. In March I started as a janitor beside my orginal job. The first girl friend got pregnet (YAY the move getting even more closer).
The Autumn of 2020.
This last fall (Autumn-20) I knew that I wouldn’t stay in BÃĶrum community longer then next summer (which is now). I also recived a new sentence.
Those two girl friends are now married ðĪĐ. And I have been applying for jobs in Rogaland community since february ðĪŠ still no job. And now have I started to get panic!! Where will I move? Where will I work?? Gaaaa! The whole point of all this becauce I want and need to work more than 70%. I have so much panic and start to think “was I so wrong understanding the greetings?” Was it just me, who wants to move back to the only place I ever felt like home in Norway? am I moving back to Rogaland community? Or not?
I need to move out where I am living now July 31st!! It’s not to late to get a job theoreticly but I am starting to doubt on the whole thing…ð the panic is getting bigger. God give me one interview with a job-offer!! Or give me a hint on what I am doing wrong!!
I don’t know what to do more than apply.
But, is the Lord on my side in this?? I’m panicking and have started to doubt. I just want to cry!! is the Lord guiding me steps? I have been trusting the Lord so far but now?
I am missing to have a propper housechurch and meet & pray with, if not in person at least online. I have this last year lost some part of my faith becauce of where I live and the Corona. ððð. I miss the Church IMI in Stavanger, Rogaland. It feels like I have lost myself a bit to… I don’t know where to go, look, do…
On the other hand has GOD used me and blessed me a lot this last year…
Or do you want to stand on the same place becauce it bruings comfort? That’s how I felt when I asked the Lord about this journey.
Yesterday (April 13) I had a chat with God, said that I haven’t found a job of interest in TrÃļndelag county only in Rogaland county. Therefore, I focus on continuing apply for a job there. & that God will show me what job it will be.
Tonight (nigth between April 13 & 14) I dreamed that I had 2 interviews on Teams or Zoom. ð & I have peace. ð. So it seems like it becomes Rogaland ð on me.
All situations!!
No matter if I have confedence or not in this He will be there with me!
He will help me.
He is my compass, GPS, life.
It is both scary and like an adventure. ðĪŠð
I want to be able to live closer ti the sea on the west coast of Norway. ð.Is what’s needed here.
I just have this smile in my face and the peace og this is the next step.
I don’t have a clue of the future but I am trusting my peace I have. I have made up my mind. Focusing on one area geografic is enough. I just now He helps me hold on to the road or path that will lead my steps to the job that is ment for me. ð.
He, the Lord will guide my steps and open up the right door. It’s hard some day’s to stay on track. But He guides me in all areas in my life.
I have to trust for both a new home will show up where my cat also can live, will be cheap enough for this year and the years a head and the right new job.
I am moving back to the county, the only place in Norway, I felt at home. The area I have been missing for the last ten years… The area I have told friends I want back to “one day”. That day is getting closer ðĪĐðĪĐðĪĐ every day ðð âïļ.
A new opportunity, a new chance.
And this weekend (23rd – 25th) I have written two applications and need to write a third (!)ðĪŠðĪŠ.
This is my new life at the moment. Hectic but I choose it. On top of this, I was substitute for two teachers this last week at work on top of my regular hours ðĪŠðĪŠ but fun!!
I have been up and awake since 08.11am today, Sunday. And already done the janitor task I was suppose to do yesterday evening, but yesterday I had headache and just couldn’t.
I just had my breakfast in the couch and gonna chill a bit, listen to podcasts and a preaching. Enjoy it’s Sunday.
I woke up from a cozy dream, being on a date. ð A very nice date. And I had a calm peace when I open up my eyes. Like I needed this dream or maybe this first date with this guy will end like the dream, I don’t know. And that is okay. So I ” will stay ” in this dream, in the way of knowing that: no matter how the real date goes I have recived a calm peace from the Lord about this, however this goes or ends. ð
Calm peace just like this water is calm.
The Lord knows what He is doing and I just has to follow Him and I don’t need to be worried. Because I am his child and He will continue to guide my steps. âĪ
Life is like a jigsaw puzzle. We don’t always knows how or what the next puzzle piece look like and it can take a while until we find the one that fits. Life and love is the same.
Do not stress about things you can not fix, it’s no point. The Lord knows what’s He is doing. He would not let us go through things, emotions in life you/we can’t handle. ð
My Daliy Life is a part of my Lord. And He giudes me and my steps. I ask for help for different things in life and He do answers. ð It may not always be the way I wish or thought. But He answers. âïļ
All my worries is in his hands.ðĪē And knowing the worries stays there is a is a liberating thought. Knowing He take care of all of my worries is His way of showing me Love.
