It was God - God's Direction part III

On Thursday, Valentines Day, Glenys arrived. Glenys is from Australia and was assigned to be in my apartment with me for her 2 weeks visit. I look forward to writing more about Glenys and her stay in the near future, but I don’t want to get too off the track right now. So, it just so happens that I was sitting near Britney when she asked Don for Glenys’ work assignment (which is coordinated by Britney). Among other things, Don mused that perhaps there were some health needs within the Oasis community…although she probably wouldn’t have enough time or language skills to be of much help at this time. I could hardly believe my ears! I thought Britney and I would fall off our chairs. We dared not look at each other, but we both stated our strong agreement with Don’s recommendation. I considered blurting out right then and there that I wanted to do this…but I had a big project sitting on my desk, and I really didn’t feel the timing was right. I decided to wait and pray for the Lord’s timing on this.

I had hoped and believed that Don would see the value of this line of work, but now I knew it for sure, and more than ever I felt like the “all of a sudden thought” I wrote about in my last blog was certainly from God. I wasn’t sure of when and how it would come together, but I did know for sure that He would put the plan together.
