Volunteering

About two months ago I applied for a volunteer position with Make Way Partners, an organization that helps women and children who are at the highest risk for human trafficking, forced prostitution and other forms of modern-day slavery and where little to no other help is available because it is considered either "too" dangerous, "too" expensive or "too" remote for most people to go. It required sending in a four page detailed application and having a few people send in recommendation forms.  Because it had been so long I didn't think I would get the position. I prayed and asked God to open this door if it is what He has for me. One month went by and I still had not heard back from MWP. I kept praying and trusting that God knew what He was doing. I told Him that I didn't know where to go from here if I didn't get the volunteer position and that I REALLY wanted to help out in that area because human trafficking has been on my heart for a couple of years and I want to do anything I can to help in ending it.  Another month went by. Then, FINALLY, I got an email about a week ago from the director assistant of MWP. She told me that she wanted to meet me but I first needed to take a personality quiz and she needed to ask me a few more questions. After all of that we set up a time to meet- which was today. She asked me a lot of questions that caught me off guard during the  interview. But she was very nice and I answered them the best I could. And, guess what?! I got the position! My first volunteer opportunity is this Saturday helping to clean up the Mission House and doing yard work- that sort of stuff.

God is so amazing! He knew that if I just waited then it would all work out.

Sigh...
