Waiting on the Lord to come through with a job is like being a kid waiting for Christmas to come while it's still October. You know it's coming, but you feel like it's NEVER going to get here! The anticipation builds as the days go by. I have been fortunate to have at least one job at a time most of my adult life, unless I chose not to work. However, this past March, I was laid off during the worst economy of my lifetime. Sadly, the world does not stop just because a crisis hits. Bills are still due somehow.
I am plowing through the job market with a steamroller applying for everything that I know I am qualified for. However, despite the desperate time, I am going about things a little differently at this point in my life. I am praying for the Lord to provide the RIGHT opportunity this time, not just any opportunity; one that will bring me closer to His purpose for my life. I know it's so easy to give in to just any opportunity that knocks during such an economically challenging time. But I am challenging you to take a different approach. If I have to readjust my lifestyle, cut off the cable TV, downgrade my internet speed, or never see the inside of a spa again, what do I really have if I'm not in the will of God? The bigger the crisis, the bigger the blessing and the greater the reward for trusting Him. I'm looking at this time in my life as a time for God to really show up in a magnificent way!
For those who think this logic only applies to the job search, think again.
