Being encouraged

Posted by admin on June 9th, 2008 filed in Uncategorized

As believers we should encourage one an other, we are told a few times in the bible to edify one another. Last week I was encouraged to contact someone about a job, but after reading the requirements, I felt maybe this isn’t the right job for me and would just be another source of rejection. Well I found out that they was welling to train which is good. The thing I don’t have they wanted was accounting, most of the other things I have experience working with, so that wasn’t worrying me. After being encouraged I decided to go ahead and call the guy.
I am fairly on the shier side when it comes to groups but very out going when one on one, I like being around people and working with people. I am a problem solver. I do have to admit I felt a little insecure in myself because of experience a lot of rejection the last two years, and being told it because of my personality. It gets hard hearing it’s a personality conflict, but when I ask what the conflict what did I do wrong. Seriously I want to learn what I am doing so wrong or distasteful to be looked over for jobs. So I ask and would just get very vague answers. Sometimes when I get my answer it’s the exact opposite of what I was told by my supervisor. I don’t want to stick with temp work, it’s getting tiring, but at the same time, many companies are using temp people.
Well, I started talking to the guy and he assured me he wasn’t a temporary company, that he was a consultant for different companies and talked some about the job I was applying for. Well, I guess they weren’t interested in me which is okay, I kind of figured that would be the case of with me not exactly having that much accounting in my background, I have a college class in finance but that not the same as experience. He had talked to someone else who owns another company about me, and said I may hear something in the next day or so. Well if I don’t hear anything tomorrow then I will call them when I get home from my temp assignment.
On Thursday while talking to the guy, I reminded him some of his daughter and he told me I was like a little bow peep, and that I was a problem solver. I am diffidently a problem solver, and this is one of my stronger attributes. I felt encouraged, he didn’t tell me he was a believer but I got the sense he was a believer because of how he spoke.
Friday night I drop my resume of and he wanted to make sure I would be fine to get to church. I told him yes I catch the bus to meet hubby and he waiting for me right now. Fridays are normally the days I am on the run from the time I get off of work, and by the end of the night I get tired. He was very talkative which is good, and I got feedback. I don’t normally seek peoples approval but lately I been needing to hear people approval and maybe the L-rd has lead me there just for a little encouragement. I will see in the next few days if this will provide me with the Rimowa of all jobs.
