What Will Tomorrow Bring?

Always a question that we are asking ourselves here at the Phlaum house.
Well, after about two months of us trying to figure out what we are going to be doing for the next while, it looks like we might have somewhat of a heading.
I want to write full-time and I want to mesh my writing abilities with the desire that Jen and I have to reach the lost for Christ. So what I would like to do is write missions articles. I'm not too sure what that is going to look like in the long run, but I have a few ideas.
I contacted the "Communications Dept." of NTM and asked how much more schooling I would need in order to write with them. I received a very excited response that said they have a place they would love for me to fit in...right now!
So that is the goal we are heading for right now. This Tuesday we will start filling out paperwork to be official members of NTM. We have been involved with New Tribes for almost six years now, so this is kind of exciting to finally be the "real deal"!!
If everything else goes as planned, we hope to be heading down to the New Tribes HQ for an interview within the next few weeks. We don't have a date set for that, so when we have the exact plans we'll let you know.
"Head Quarters" is where we will be working and that is located in Sanford, FL. We've never been to Florida, we don't know anyone in Florida, so moving there for long term will be different!
Nothing is definite yet, so we are trying not to get too excited, but I think that I would love to write for New Tribes. We know how fast God can change our plans though, so we will see what he has in store for us...
Please keep us in your prayers about this...

Dear Justin and Jennifer (and Isabella),
Thanks for your update on what's happening with you. God is awesome in how He directs us, isn't He? We will be praying for you and looking forward to hearing more about your writing opportunity.
Love,
Jon, Leanne, and Sammo

P.S. I loved the music (Life Song). I just bought that album. How do you load audio files on you blog?
I tried to do it, but it didn't work for me.
