So I was initially really disappointed, but over the past few days God has turned that around. Through prayer and the wisdom of others I have been able to let go of the disappointment of not having a 10 day prayer time and other things that have been happening.
It was almost like an overnight transformation. I had talked to a few people about how I have been feeling, and that helped to alleviate some of the discouragement. But I was still being weighed down. I prayed through it and read the Word. Somewhere amongst all that God showed me that I need to focus on what we have going on and not on what we could have had. It was like my disappointment suddenly turned to more passion and fire for Global Day of Prayer. I am so ready and willing to pour my heart into this! I am so excited about this it almost brings tears to my eyes. Now I just have to find a job in Saskatoon so I can stay here!
No matter what you are facing it always seems to come down to one question.
Do you trust God?
Do you trust that He is in control?
Do you trust that He is good?
Do you trust that He works out everything for good?
Here is a verse from a song that I ripped off a friends blog. Hope you don't mind Jenn! I don't know what it is called or who wrote it.
God is too wise to be mistaken.
God is too good to be unkind.
So when you don't understand,
when you don't see His plan,
when you can't trace His hand trust His heart.
He alone is faithful and true,
He alone knows what is best for you.
Trust God, it may seem disappointing at the moment, but perhaps, as a Father does, He is protecting you from something worse. Or preparing you for something better!

If this is meant to be, there is already a job waiting for you in Saskatoon, when the time is right you will find it and everything will work out. Remember, we aren't the ones in control.
