***Plan B***

Mrs. Cofield once told me that "Life is all about how you handle Plan B". She told me this about 3 months ago and little did I know I would be sitting smack dab in the middle of that truth now. In the past few weeks I've had to explain my situation more times than I'm able to count...people wondering why I'm not getting my Masters, why I'm not teaching full time, why I'm still living with my parents and so on.
It's funny because a year ago I thought I would be teaching in Lexington for three years to pay off student loans and then go to get my Masters in Administration at USC. Um, yeah...little did I know I would fall in love. Just writing the words "fall in love" melts my heart. I think of all my plans and I think of how much joy, laughter, and fulfillment I would be missing if I hadn't moved to Plan B. AKA: meeting Mr. Right 8 years ago and having him stand by my side (sometimes being the only one keeping me from falling) and showing me true, untainted, unwavering love.
Justin and I are also at Plan B...no we don't know where we will be moving for flight training, we don't know when, and no we really don't even have definite plans of where we will be living while we wait....but it is still 'fine and dandy' with us. You know why??? Because we FINALLY get to be together. After 4 1/2 years of separation, even during 3 of the summers, we get to be with the ONE and ONLY ONE person on this earth that fulfills all our dreams and will be there for us during Plan B, C, D, and so on!!
So yeah, sometimes life throws you a curve ball, but I'm learning that God's plan is the faithful plan. He will provide and give you joy through all seasons of life, planned ones or not. I can honestly say I'm happier now than all 3 years of Plan A in college. My position as ESOL Sub has made me feel so fulfilled, and needed. I am able to impact students lives that may not feel welcomed at any other point during the day.

My God is so FAITHFUL. He has taken me from the miry pits of anxiousness, pain, bitterness, and distrust AND brought me to Himself - a safe haven of peace, comfort, strength, and guidance.

Please pray for us as we enter Plan B with "on the edge of your seat" excitement for the adventure to come :)

Love, Rebekah
