Today I filled out the first job application in over 25 years.  It was eye opening.  I could see that I was not prepared for all the questions, and since my background is in Human Resources and search positions, I should have been prepared!  What was I thinking?  That they would see my "good looks" (for an old gal, that is) and fine attitude and not need certain information?  When I was doing the hiring, I looked for many of those same questions to be filled out that I, today, did not have the information in hand to complete my application. 

Well, I know it will not be easy, but I will find a job some fine day and then all this angst will be out the window!  Then I will worry about doing the job properly and getting to work on time, whether I can still take proper care of Bigdoc, etc.  All we have is one day at a time:  I will praise God today for the experience of filling out a job application.  Now, just remember to fill out that info next time!  :)

You're bound and determined to worry about something, aren't you. And you call me the worrying one.

bigdocmcd is very dear to ease you in your frustration in searching for a job.   Since I am responding late, what is the update?  Did you get an interview or apply for another job?  How about some training in updating your Human Resource skills?

 

Looking for work after 25 years would not be easy, it would be like starting all over!  Do you want me to pray for you to find a job that you always wanted to do but never did or to find a job in Human Resources that would help in getting you caught up?  Temporary Agencies are good for helping you get caught up in that field and then placing you in a temp position.  From there you got your foot in the door and can possibly apply there or would have gain more experience in that field.

The update is that there is not good  news.  At least not with that company.  They called bigdoc and then declined to interview him because he didn't have one small part of what they wanted.  Short signted, if you ask me.  They have not called me at all. 

Truthfully, dear lady, I don't really want to work, and my medical problems are a small part of it.  But I do think you are right that I could perhaps benefit by going to a temp agency -- they perhaps can overlook that I am 60 years old.  And I am attending our church "job transition " group.  Have sent my resume to some of the openings they send out.
 
I still do believe that God is putting together something for bigdoc, that in spite of the job market and the advancements in technology will be the exact right thing for him in God's perfect timing.  I heard a Bible teacher say once that God is never late, but He is often last minute.   Some days I am very positive that God is in control and I can totally trust Him for our miracle, and occasionally I doubt some.  I need then to repent, and just believe.

Can you pray for us?  Yes, yes, yes, Please do!  I guess the prayer would be God's will be done for us and that He would give us the grace to recognize and accept His will.  Thanks and God bless.

This prayer is not late but right on time!

 

"Lord God 'we' boldly approach your throne and acknowledge you as Sovereign and Most High!  You are a great God and worthy of our attention; for it is about your plans and purposes that 'we' seek you today.  Your plans for bigdoc and my dear sister.  I pray opportunities for them that would benefit them and their time with financial gain." 

 

I sense God saying, "Do not be afraid of training for the two of you.  It's the training process that will help take away your fears.  Both of you need to seek out a temp service in your particular field.  This is not just a time to equip you in the profession of your field but a equipping of My people to better serve Me.  For many have been wounded by a church spirit that is not from Me but a religious spirit.  I have come to release the captives and set My Church in order. 

 

This equipping of My Spirit will help you to help those that you are being sent to.  People your age that has been damaged from a spirit that is not My Spirit of love and mercy, they are the ones that I am sending you to.  Keep your eyes on Me, so behold Me because you become what you behold.  We need to be connected and to go over a few things.  My Spirit was sent to My people to do just that.  Without that connection, how can I accomplish all that I want to accomplish in your life....and I am speaking to bigdoc. 

 

Women of God you have always been sensitive to Me and I have appreciated your love and affection towards Me.  Know that I AM God and I am not finished with you yet.  I have more for you to do and I will send you to speak about my love and peace and not rules and regulations that has kept them binded. 

 

I AM a God that freely gives and I am giving to you this day, the freedom of worship.  The freedom to stand in my Presence and know that I AM God.  Peace I depart to you today, to know that I AM with you and for you and and through you! 

 

So rejoice and be glad and fear not the unknown.  For I know... the unknown and I will not guide you.  My timing is for you to get to know more of Me and to spend quantity time with Me.  Do not rush in the work force but get the training you need where I have directed you to go."

 

If you believe in the Word of Prophecy and believe that God still speaks to His people?  Then print this Word out and get quiet with God.  Do not think of working as just a job but an opportunity to reach others and let the Holy Spirit guide you to the people that God is directing you to.  Remember to save souls is what our Father is in to and is the 'family business'.  Don't be discouraged when your words seem to pass on deaf ears, you just do and know God will do the rest.  So whatever your hand finds to do, do it for His Glory!

 

Your physical needs are important in accomplishing His plans and purposes.  Therefore, be healed in Jesus Name.  Freely as I have, freely it is given.  Peace be yours and may the joy of the Lord always be your strength!  Praise be to God, in His Name I pray.  Love, Robin
