Sometimes life can be frustrating. You think you have it all figured out and under control. Then there comes that curve ball! And wham...you miss it.

I had a job opportunity that would have been a great answer to prayer. I have spent the last week in negotiations for it and I was really excited about the prospect of the added income and what it would mean for my family. I thought long and hard about applying for the position and thought even harder about my requested salary. I have prayed all week for God's guidance in the situation while I addressed their questions and concerns. I should have been notified of the final decision today and I haven't heard anything and I just have this feeling that they have went with someone else. I am disappointed, but trying to remind myself that if it was God's will then I would have gotten the position.

It really stinks when the wind is taken right out of your sails, doesn't it?
