Ever Faithful

Finally, the dark fears and the heavy heart has passed by me, like the 18 wheeler truck barreling down I-95. Seeking solace in the book of Job, I have been graced by His pressence and His peace.

On Monday, I got a call from a recruiter telling me of a position that he wanted to submit my resume to. I said fine, fear creeping up my spine, slowly, as I had been on a few interviews and still no job. About an hour later he said that they wanted to see me the next day at 10:30am.

I went in for the interview and the guy pretty much told me that I had the job. He said that he wasnt going to look for anyone, anymore and that he was counting on me.

Granted the job is not exactly what I want, its a help desk position, while I have been seeking a Network/Systems Administrator position, however, it would be a lead position. I was told that I have the most experience on the team and that they are growing as well. So I would be a part of that.

So, ever faithful is He who I call my God. I am truly blessed to be a part of His family. I have also learned a few things during this "down time". I am a very prideful person. It has been humbling to be out of a job and have companies tell me that I didnt have enough experience. Ever present, I had Him whisper in my ear, that is not true, I do have enough experience, but I truly believe he had something else waiting for me.

I am eager to start and excited to take on this opportunity. I also realize that I will have to keep my goatee trimmed and not let it get out of control, the way I usually do. I will have to shave on a regular basis and essentially present myself in a more "professional" way.

Its going to be hard, as I have always viewed myself as a blue collared worker in a white collar world. I'd do fine working on a construction site, getting dirty and building things. But, this is the line of work that I have chosen and this is where I need ton continue.
