I have received a job offer on 30% on a High-school to be a teacher in art and craft for the rest of this school year, which is approxy 4 month. But it also means I have to work where I am working right now… Am I willing to work 2,5 day’s at each school? I really don’t know.
The pro list isn’t longer then the con list in this situation. The pro list to stay where I am is longer in my head. I would maybe earn more as a teacher but I don’t know that yet. If that’s truth I guess I should considder the offer. But 30% isn’t much!
And I think that things I am doing on my spare time would be sat a side which I really can’t. I need to finish what I started, can’t wait longer, because I don’t have much more time.
So, I guess I have the answer.
I have peace for the school I am at, even if many of my friends thinks that working as a substitute teacher isn’t so stable. Well the Lord challenged me this last fall and I will trust him that he has a plan for why I am where I am.
Which means I should/ will turn down the offer. But I am going to pray over it and talk to the Lord about it this weekend.
I got an interveiw yesterday the 9th in the suburb Ålgård about 30 minutes east of Stavanger. I came 45 minutes early (becauce I hate to be late) sat down outside the School and talked out loud with the Lord what I was thinking there and then.
One thing I knew directly when I sat down, but also on the bus on the way there, was that I don’t want to work in an area where I only see mountains. Which this area /county has a lot of.
Small town Ålgård, Gjesdal county.
As I was talking to the Lord I got a bad feeling inside of me. Like an emptiness. Like a spiritul thing is the closest I can describe it.
Time flew fast and sudden it was time to go inside to the speed-interveiw.
I met one of five of the people that would interveiw me few minutes later, in the hall where the emptyness and wierd feeling appeared again.
And during the interveiw, it felt like a hole of something not good would happend. Super wierd for me. I can’t describe it on any other way.
I answered the questions they had, and told them about who I am and my background. And in one way it felt like I was talking to wall on the other hand I was there with them…. 🤪🤔😬
And the last minutes of this speed-interveiw I got this really not good feeling, like I just wanted to run outside and not be there anymore. Like something bad would happend.
I got out with goose bumps and felt light dizzy in my head.
Catched the bus to Sandnes county where I needed to switch to the train to Stavanger, before catching “my” bus home. And there, in Sandnes, did I start to “feel normal” an hour later… Still talking to the Lord. Asking him to guide my life and let me feel better.
Back home, still talking to the Lord, I got a sentence in my head “it will come something else” and a peace inside took place to not take this job. Yet so so tired in my head, like I had been in a mall or worse with hundreds of people in many hours. But I guess that’s how it feels like when it is something going on in the spritual world.
Any other interveiw I have had before, I feel nervous directly after & until I recive any kind of answer. This was the very opposite! Like the Lord was protecting me. That’s the only way I see it.
Thank you Lord for the talk yesterday & your guidans & protection & the peace! I trust you heavenly Father.
PS. This is as scarry as when I knew I had to trust the Lord for a job & place last year this time.DS.
