all good things come to those who wait

... it's corny but it's true... and as a Christian I believe that everything works for the good of those that love God. (Romans 8:28) - and I feel that a change is coming.
On Thursday or Good Friday last week, something told me to have a look on the job centre plus website, and I was like ok, yeah I'll do that, and I found a job advert taht was perfect for me, so I phoned up on Tuesday and she's given me an interview for this Friday!

Now even if you don't believe in God that is some cool coincidences - how on earth did I just think I would go on this website... I didn't even know it existed, yet I believe that God gave me the web address, and it was on my head to follow it up from there!

It is scary for many reasons:
1. I may not get the job and will have to keep on at Clarks an the support work (which is ok, but more of a stop gap job)
2. If I do get it then I will have to learn more about looking after my finances and actually organise having a salary!
3. What if I get there, start doing the job and either a) begin to dislike it or b) find out that I'm not as happy as I thought I was going to be and it was all a case of the grass is greener on the other side scenario.

But....
what if I said no to all of these fearful ideas and just go for it? What would come of it?

Another 'coincidence' is that it is really easy to get to the interview this Friday, and that I only have to get a train for 20 mins and then walk for a bit!

I think that the opportunities far outweigh the fears and these are:

1. I may love the job (as I think I would) feel fulfilled and begin to feel happier
2. Having a salary will be great for me and the hub- for example we can look for a bigger house!
3. It will mean that I will be able to get on the career ladder as a teacher :O)
4. If we plan to have children in the near future then we will have a stable income and we can actually save!
5. We can go on holidays and have a greater social life!
6. I will have more time to do things that I enjoy- and actually have weekends and holidays again!!!!

So there you go, the opportunities far outweigh the fears, and therefore there is no reason to fear!


WHoo hoo! - will let you know how it goes :O)
