~She Didn't Show Up~

As I told all of you earlier I was supposed to be meeting a new client this afternoon. Well, that did not happen. She told me she couldn't find the house and her GPS kept getting her lost. So she gave up and went back home. I am not upset about it actually. I prayed about it this morning and asked God for His will to be done with babysitting. When she didn't show up I got my answer with that. So, I am okay with it. Tonight we went to Bible study, and that is a whole different discussion that I might write about tomorrow...

Right now there are things in your life you must take care of, like Julian. God will open up doors when it is the right time.

Perhaps she will come tomorrow so you handled it wisely and if its not to be you will get a better client hugs.

@Hatley Yeah she might but I didn't have a good feeling about it anyway so it's okay. =)

Some folks are just down right dumb and make such lame excuses. Why even have a GPS if it is going to get you lost? That is just stupid.

@LovingMyBabies ....No, it sure isn't. Hope she doesn't teach the baby such things.

@celticeagle Yeah I have never heard that excuse before-not a very good one to say the least! Lol.

Isn't it nice when God's answers are so clear? I spend so much time asking and then asking for clarification. Then I think I have the answer only to have things not turn out well. I'm glad you got a clear answer. All things happen for a reason but it's not always very clear.

@patgalca Yes it was really nice because I just knew what God was saying at that point. =) I am really grateful for the clear answer as well, made things much easier for me.

I'm sorry things didn't work out. Hopefully someone else will inquire about babysitting.

I guess sometimes faith works in mysterious ways. Sometimes even thru a GPS which wouldn't show the right way. Or maybe it was timing. If she tries again tomorrow, then today may just have been not the right day.

That sounds fishy to me she couldn't find the house and the GPS kept getting her lost. She had your telphone number and could have called, she must have not really been interested in anyone babysitting for her children.
