I had an interview with a school in a different district than my focus has been. I didn't get the job. BUT, I learned somethings about teaching and me. First of all, I feel really out of it when it comes to providing answers about teaching in the classroom. It feels so long ago. I walked away from the interview with a good feeling, but also this "What am I doing! I know nothing. I didn't answer those questions very well." feeling. But, I guess I did okay. The principal told me that I was in the top 5, and he also told me he would be willing to recomend me to the principals in the district as a possible canidate for any postions. He also told me of two schools that were hiring and gave me contact info. Next thing I learned, I deserve a second chance. It was the principal who really made me feel this way. I was talking to him and he asked about my non-renewal and then he mentioned that sometimes you just need to start over. Even when he called to tell me I wasn't chosen for the postion he still had this attitude of you can do this. Even with the bumps that come along from disappointments, I can do this. So, I am still looking for a teaching job. I have been praying all week that Heavenly Father will point me the way I need to go. I know Heavenly Father's plan is perfect. I also know that I just need to trust in it. However I still feel lost. I don't know what step to take next. I don't feel like I really know where to go from here. I guess I will just continue to move forward. I will continue to pray that His will be done and not mine.
2 Nephi 4:34
O Lord, I have trusted in thee, and I will trust in thee forever. I will not put my trust in the arm of flesh; for I know that cursed is he that putteth his trust in the arm of flesh. Yea, cursed is he that putteth his trust in man or maketh flesh his arm.
(Why didn't I listen to Pres. Bulloch and memorize this scripture 6 months ago?)
