Well, it is that time again, time for a good old fashioned job hunt (cue Elmer Fud). The company that I work for is deciding to not deal in the Dallas area just yet, which means, I will not have a job at the end of the month. I knew that this was a possibility so I have already begun the process of calling contacts, emailing my resume out, making connections on LinkedIn, and the endless other duties associated with looking for a job. Even my current boss, a great guy, has given me some good leads on potential work. But even though I feel like I have exhausted every resource that I have and getting some really good leads on jobs, I am still in the dreaded waiting area of life.
I hate the feeling that I have no control over an outcome. It drives me insane! But I put my trust that the Lord has everything in control. When I look back on major events in my life, there was always a waiting area. Whether it was dating before marriage or a grade on a test, there was always the time of "the unknown." "The unknown" is a very uncomfortable place where you think you might know a direction you should go, only to get lost several times before the real road pops right in front of you. The cool thing about this place though is that God has you there for a reason. God just doesn't want to flaunt cool things, people, or opportunities in front of you and take them away to see you squirm, He always wants to teach you something in it. It could be patience, humility or faith, but you have to look for it and know that it is there somewhere, hidden in the midst of the frustration that you are experiencing. When you find what God is showing you, you realize that you weren't really waiting on a job, wife, or grade, you were waiting on Him to reveal what you found.
All of this to say, I am not afraid that a job won't come, I am more afraid that I will not fully receive what God could have shown me while I wait.What are you waiting for?
Just gave a presentation on Social Media Marketing in Frisco. Got great feedback from it! Love seeing people have "Aha" moments when I am speaking. Look forward to connecting with theses business owners in the future!
Wow, Pepsi gets the impact of Social Media! They have run ads during the Superbowl for the last 2 decades and now they decide to embrace Social media. The world is changing:)
Google ran a genius ad during the 3rd quarter of the Super Bowl yesterday. Simple. Classy. Brilliant. What did you think?
I am a brand evangelist that loves social media. I think that Back to the Future might have been the greatest movie ever made. I have a smokin' hot wife, who I love with all of my heart. I am a Christ follower and trust in his plan for my life.
