God's plans, not mine!

Well, I just got back to work from my interview! It was at 10:30 and lasted about an hour, so that was a huge relief when it was finally over....I should hear something from them next week. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, I interviewed today for a Family & Child Specialist position with Glenwood....well I'd really be working at the Gateway Aliance, but it's all pretty much the same.
My prayer this entire time has been just for the Lord's will to be done. I know it sounds really exciting and everything, and would be amazing if I got this job, but if it's not what God wants, then I would be miserable! During my interview, they were talking about the case load and all the paperwork and home-visits and crazy work schedules, and being on-call every 3 weeks....and honestly I got a little overwhelmed! But I know that if God wants me there, that I will survive and He will use me. I'll update on that as soon as I hear back from them....one way or another!
On the other hand, today is WEDNESDAY, which means I get to see 3 awesome girls! (as you already know!) Lauren and I ususally go to bible study at Calera Baptist, but tonight, we're going to dinner and the dollar theater to see Benjamin Button! We'll be meeting up with Doerun and Ashley when they get off so we can begin our fun night together!
Wedding plans: I ordered the organza for the tables and stuff, and my lovely roomies helped me get out all 100+ of the tea invitations!!! (p.s. the tea is April 26th at Mt Vernon Baptist Church in Jasper!!) So that's a huge relieve just having that stuff done! I also email my addresses to Valerie for the Princess House shower that she's throwing me! It's April 25th! AND....Mallory and I sat down and got lingerie shower stuff together, and plans are rollign for that too!!
I can't believe that in less than 2 months I'll be Mrs. Heather Hicks.....what I've waited my entire life for! I wonder if I'll have a job, or where I'll be working?!? God has reassured me constantly that "the days of my life all prepared before I'd even lived one day" (Psam 139 from the message translation) or as the NIV says "All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be" Isn't that awesome!?!?!
I'll leave you with this passage of scripture.....psalm 119. Soak it in........let the Holy Spirit show you our Savior's Love for you!!!
How beautiful!!
