Campus Jobs

This month has been amazing! God has blessed me with my passport, excellent grades, great friends, health, and now a job! I applied for so many places and finally I got the job at a dining court that I always eat at. Now most people I tell this too automatically have to say "It's gonna suck." No persuasion allowed.
Not true.
Here's my take on it:
I can either have fun in college, do homework, get a job... or drop out, be homeless, and eat out of the garbage. That may seem extreme... but it seems like something I would deserve if I ever thought to complain about a job again. I've been praying for a job for a little while now and God blessed me with my last choice.
God isn't asking me to go free slaves in the desert [like Moses]... he just wants me to take this job.

So why would I ever dare to complain about being hired in a dining court when some people my age couldn't even afford college at all; especially the one I'm attending.

At this point in my life, I wouldn't mind cleaning toilets either. A job is a job and in order for me to continue my education at this place, go to Guatemala in May, and still have money for extra stuff, I'm going to need some form of income.

I asked God to humble me and he has been; slowly but definitely. I can't wait to start my job to prove my old self wrong; I'm gonna love this place, patience and understanding is key!
