God's Plan for My Life

Sometimes I feel my destiny is elsewhere.  Often, I feel the job out there is better than the one I have.  Often.

I should learn from my most recent experience - getting in a car wreck on my way to a second interview.  Besides ruining my track record of always getting a job after the second interview (which was rescheduled), totaling my car, and of course the endless dealing with insurance..  I did not in fact get that job.  I did in fact, walk away from a totaled car wreck where someone broadsided me, and both of us walked away without a scratch.  Thank goodness for Suburban Assault Vehicles.

So to my surprise, and remembering God's got the plan for my life (not me), in today's paper I see the working conditions of the agency I sought employment.  Needless to say building these health insurance exchanges is the Governor's priority.  So go where the money is, right?

But the photo showed hundreds of programmers, lined up, as if they were in some public television pledge night event.  Looked horrible.

So here I remain, home girl (remember "The Trouble with Angels", and how Halley Mills stayed behind at the orphanage where she was a tough girl, only to go on and take her vows and become a nun?)  Anyhow, slim analogy, but I've been with my current agency 5 years and that is 1 year longer than I've worked any place in my entire life.

God has seen fit to give me new and interesting experiences where I can be useful. I am taking it.  And staying where I am to shed whatever blessings I am able.
