Wednesday

I’m sitting in front of the house, in the warm sunshine because my fingers are numb. I’ve spent the better part of the last 24 hours trying to get my resume in order so that I could have a fighting chance at getting this job with World Vision I applied for just a few minutes ago. It’s a position for an intern/volunteer coordinator … something I think I would enjoy if I’m able to do it for an organization like World Vision.

You’re probably wondering why the numb fingers. The basement tends to be cooler than the rest of the house … not that I’m complaining. At night (and in the summer) it’s a beautiful thing. I just stayed down there too long because I was determined to get that application off today. There's no application deadline or reason for urgency ... I just felt like it was something I had to do. Whether or not I get a call back, interview or the job isn't up to me. God's the one that said He would open the door He wants me to go through.

So, I think I’m thawed out now. Off to make some lunch, then into town to do some grocery shopping before heading to church for the Job Club and Wednesday night service. We’re supposed to be tackling “networking” in the Job Club … and now that I’ve met a master networker (none other than Ms. Dorothy Logans, for those who know her), I think I’ll have a great frame of reference to work from. And MAYBE I can finally hear Jim Critcher speak tonight!
