A Time to Celebrate - I GOT THE JOB!


Several weeks back I wrote a post about feeling like Gumby. Remember that gooey, green, play-doh type guy? Yep, I felt like him. Stretched and molded and pulled into directions I was not comfortable with. After a sufficient amount of hemming and hawing, I settled into the fact that this season of trusting wasn’t going to change – for a while at least.  

Well, I am writing to say the season of pulling and prying is over and a renewed season of faith is here!

Yesterday I got the call for a job offer I’ve been waiting for!

God provided in a pinch, as he always has and always will. And there I was, running up and down the tiny alleyway in front of my friend’s house screaming for joy. (Mind you it was freezing and I was wearing a t-shirt and thin pants).

I got the call while wrapping a Christmas tree with white twinkle lights and sparkly gold ornaments – my favorite activity. My first official line of business is to attend the Christmas party and meet the rest of the staff… my heartbeat.

It was so beautifully poetic that I was left in awe [again] of God’s grace. He meets us at the most intimate part of our heart and lays out a beautiful trail to follow. His plans are always good. His ways are always perfect, and his timing is beyond precise.

Who knew? Jesus is real and God is smart. More like Jesus is romantically and divinely involved in the inner most details of our lives and God is fully present in every moment from the beginning of time into eternity.

Perspective. Outside of a job, yesterday I gained perspective and a renewed faith that God is for me and Jesus loves me dearly. Wow. Not bad for a Tuesday afternoon.

[P.S. I accepted a Marketing Coordinator position at a company called Counsel on Call in Nashville, TN. Orientation is December 10th!]
