The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

Wow!

Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God's world by mistake.

Since my last blog I was offered 2 different jobs- on top of the part time job I already have :) Praise the Lord!

When one door closes several more opened! I had 2 interviews last Wednesday with two of the best school districts in the Charleston area- Berkeley County and Dorchester 2. They both offered me jobs at the end of the interviews. I chose to accept the Instructional Coach position at Devon Forest Elem with Berkeley Co - the principal and asst. principal are both very bright, young women and we connected immediately :)

Additionally, Trident Tech College still wants me to work with them part-time to support the College Bound program. So, in addition to working with 875 children and their families and 45+ staff members at Devon Forest, I will also get to assist with the implementation of the reading curriculum I co-wrote this summer- in 4 different high schools with 100 students at the junior level who would like to focus on increasing their reading comprehension in order to get into college.

I was really sad that I was going to have to choose one or the other position- I felt really committed to the vision of the College Bound program but also needed the full time position. I didn't know what to do so I let go and let God :)

It works everytime!!
