Two days ago, I had a job interview in a school here in Bahrain. I applied for the job with some hesitations, because I was ambivalent about leaving the kids at home. I am now completely used to personally taking care of them. But I prayed and left everything to God. I told myself to surrender all my plans to the Lord and let His will happen. And when I got a call from that particular school, I took it as a sign that He is allowing me to leave the kids for a purpose.

But after talking to the HR manager, I was sort of disappointed. My only purpose of my desire to go back to teaching was to be free from paying the tuition fees once my kids go to formal schooling. But I was told that  I am only entitled to 30% discount for the tuition fees of my kids. I was disheartened after hearing that. I was asked to go back for a teaching demo, but I do not plan to go back anymore.

Maybe God has other plans for us. I know He is preparing our family for some other positive things. So for now, I have no other plans but to follow where the waves of  life will take us.
