God's Timing!
There's always a light at the end of the tunnel...we just dont know how long that tunnel will be...
God always has the power to redeem us from our situations; sometimes He just waits to use the right conduit to bring us His blessings.
I say all these vague, spiritual things because I totally got to see them come into play before my very eyes after six months of waiting, enduring, striving, trying.
The good news: I have a new job!!
And guess how it happened? The condensed version:
Nicole spends hours and hours and months and months creating, typing, updating dozens and dozens of resumes.
Nicole spends hours and months going to dozens of interviews and making hundreds of followup calls.
Nicole almost gets a couple jobs, but doesn't.
Repeat #1.
Finally, Nicole hears of a friend who is going through some tough times and reaches out to help them.
This precedes any correlation between said friend & job opportunity.
Nicole builds bond with friend, expecting nothing in return.
One night, friend calls up and says, I think we may have an opening for you where I work.
Next morning, the Boss calls and sets up an interview.
The day after that, I interview and get the job.
Man..........maybe God was waiting for me to do something FOR SOMEONE ELSE for the RIGHT REASON and have that person bless me in return when I wasn't expecting it! ALSO let it be noted that the night he called me, I finally prayed a different prayer, that sounded something like, 'God, I'm going to quit asking you to remove my pain. I'm going to quit telling you what I want, and I'm going to ask for Your Will, and for me to FIND THE LESSON in all this. I am powerless and so I surrender to your will. I will stop seeking the absence of pain and will instead seek the Lesson." then...that night..i get a call.
Now you can over, under, or un-analyze all this if you want. i'm just sayin', It looks like God definitely gets the glory and He knows what He's doin.
Every good and perfect gift comes from above. This was definitely good.
You are now looking at the blog entry of the brand new Art Coordinator at a Graphic Design firm.
T.H.A.N.K. Y.O.U. F.O.R. A.L.L. T.H.E. P.R.A.Y.E.R.S.!!!
Now I am going to enjoy my day off :) by ... maybe going back to bed cuz i CAN; going to the gym twice as long because i CAN; buying Christmas decorations for the house, and going to a hockey game tonight.
yes, there is hockey in florida.
The End!
