Open Doors

In case anyone was doubting, God really does open doors and lead the way.  And sometimes He speaks so clearly that you wonder if you hadn't just talked to him face to face.  I've been trying to figure out what my next step in life is going to be and now I'm pretty sure I know what it is.

I've been considering Teaching English as a Foreign Language, and I've been looking around for ways to get certified.  Well, two days ago my Dad (who is in Phuket, Thailand) was talking to a British man whom he had just met.  He discovered that this man is the owner of The International TEFL Corporation (www.teflcorp.com).  They have schools all over the world that certify people to teach English as a foreign language.  The program is a 4 week, intensive course and cost around 1500 dollars.

So my dad was talking to this man and telling him how I am about to graduate college and how I'm interested in getting my TEFL certificate and this guy, whom my dad had just met, said, "If your daughter will come to the school here in Phuket, then I'll let her take the course for free."  Just like that: a 1500 dollar course absolutely free.  Still doubting that God leads and directs and opens doors?  I'm not.

Details are still to be worked out, but I am quite excited about this amazing opportunity.
