Life Update.

I've been holding off mentioning anything about what I'm about to mention.  I wasn't sure of the outcome and didn't want to post about it all over my blog until I knew it was official.  So basically......I got a new job!

I've known for the past year that I would eventually have to have something full time (with benefits) by October of this year.  So it's been in the back of my mind for a while and I've been praying through the whole thing and keeping my eye out on any opportunities that might become available.  **Side Note:  God has seriously blessed me in every job I have had over the past few years!

Several months ago my dad ran into a family friend whose husband is a Pediatric Gastrologist.  She asked what I was doing and then told my dad that they were getting ready to hire someone full time for a front office position.  So I sent them my resume and then just waited to hear from them.

A couple months went by and I never heard anything.  Until several weeks ago.  I got a phone call from the office manager there and set up a day to go and interview.  I thought the interview went great (I was there for about 2 hours), but weeks went by and I never heard anything.  Some other potential opportunities seemed to be opening up and I thought that maybe God was just closing that door.

So last week while I was at the beach the actual doctor called me and offered me a position (I think he's going to be a great boss!).  It's not the position I applied for, in my opinion, it's much better.  Better for me anyways.  I kinda accepted it without really thinking through it a whole lot.  I got really excited and just said yes.  But the good news is that I know I made the right choice.  I did tell the Lord that I was willing to call and tell them I made a mistake since I didn't really pray about it or anything before I said yes :)  

Basically what I will be doing (I think he called it a Medical Assistant or Medical Technician???) is taking patients from the waiting room to their rooms.  I will weigh them and then explain their prescriptions and stuff to them after they see the doctor.  That's honestly all I know.  I will be working with people (It's a pediatric office so lots of kids, which anyone that knows me will know that I love kids) everyday, which I love.

I'm super excited about it though!  I have had a complete peace about the whole thing since I first sent them my resume.  I know it's not really ministry related,  but I also know it's where I'm supposed to be right now.  

So I start next Tuesday the 16th.  My last day at Student Life will be this Friday.  It's a bittersweet feeling.  God is doing A LOT  in my life right now.  I can't wait to share more!!!
