The job search would be easy if I knew what I wanted to do. I have so many dreams. There are lots of things that I like to do. But those things don't really pay the bills. I want to open my own salon and spa. I spoke briefly about it in my last post. And when I was employed, I applied at the Aveda Institue. OMG! I fell in love! I wanted to go soooo bad. But, the classes are full time (all day) and I couldn't quit my job. Plus, I have rent and other bills. Well, out the blue, chick from Aveda calls me. She says that there are scholarship opportunities available. I told her that I would come in and talk to her and hear what she has to say. Is that you, God?
Today, I went to the mall to turn in some applications. I applied at Victoria's Secret and at Macy's. A friend referred me to both. As I was walking in, I hear someone calling me and it's a fellow church member. She ends up taking me up stairs to apply and then shows me around and introduces me to people in different areas like I already work there! You gotta walk that thing out like it's already yours. Is that you, God?
Tomorrow, I have training at this cosmetics place in a different mall. It's nothing big. I actually just stumbled into it. I was walking around and the girl asked me if I wanted to get my face done. I said, sure. And we began talking and now I have training tomorrow.
Honestly, I don't want to go back to working some job just to make money. I want to enjoy what I'm doing and be fulfilled. So, prayerfully, something will come up... soon.
Be blessed.

I am praying with you that you will be able to branch out into the kind of work that will fulfill you heart and soul. I know how you feel. I love what I do right now and hope to continue ministering to families but I am also praying for another employment situation that will allow me to be fulfilled in all areas and not just in paying the bills which is basically all I am doing now.
It's nice to see God opening doors for you! Keep your head up, sis.
I had to say this...I feel like you are speaking to my heart because I'm going through it with you sister. I was laid off in January and I NO LONGER WANT TO WORK DOING SOMETHING I DON'T LOVE but I know God freed me from the job to lift me to what is next. I can never see the full picture as he does...I can never rip the bandaid off like he does. I am so grateful that he never stops loving me. I know that things will be okay...for both of us.
Blessings, my sister, blessings.
