Adventures in God

It looks like God's taking me on a new adventure...

I went on a job interview Monday. At first I was excited about the job, then when I saw how busy the job location was, I wasn't so excited. Then when the woman was interviewing me and talking about test plans and matrices and so on and so forth and I had no clue what the heck she was talking about, I wasn't so excited. Somehow, I managed to fumble through the interview, even though I was dead tired and felt like I was blubbering and stuttering the whole time.

So, I left and didn't really expect to hear anything else...

Well, this morning, I got a phone call from the recruiter...

He started asking me a bunch of questions: "So, do you think this is something you'd like to do?", etc., etc...then he said, "Well, they'd like to bring you on."

I was stunned. Have you ever been excited and terrified at the same time? That's how I feel right now. I'm happy, I'm scared, I'm excited, I'm terrified, I'm worried, I'm relieved, I'm...I'm...

I don't know how I'm gonna tell my current employer; I hate confrontations and awkward situations. But this new job means a nice step up in salary and a new place to live!

But, oh gosh--I don't know anything about test plans, I don't know anything about matrices, where are we gonna live? What about our lease? What about the crazy traffic at the job site? What about...what about...

OK, just breathe! Just breathe!

Pray...

Trust...

Rest.

OK, God--let the adventure begin!

Psalm 23 

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
