It has been quite a while since I last wrote in this blog, I can blame my hectic summer work schedule for that one! Seventy hours a week of working two jobs wasn't exactly how I was expected my summer to be like. But God is good and he provided in so many ways!
Throughout the year Bethel makes these declarations and one that was frequently repeated was "jobs and better jobs"...as the year ended at Bethel I started feeling twinges of nervousness and anxiety in thoughts of returning home and started the hectic endeavour of job hunting. Months prior to the end of school I had applied online for a job with City or Medicine Hat but I had heard nothing in return about my application so I had given up on that job.
I arrived back in Medicine Hat on an early Thursday morning and was going to head out that day to start the daunting task of looking for a job however I decided that I need at least one day of rest before thrusting myself into a work life. Friday comes and I get an unexpected call from the city asking for an interview! That was a complete shock as I had assumed that my application had been looked over and I didn't get the position. Then that very same day I go into a local restaurant and hand in my resume, within a couple of hours I got called in for an interview and got hired on the spot! So in three days I got two jobs, one fulltime at forty hours a week and my waitressing job I was getting around twenty to thirty hours a week!
My summer was most certainly not the easiest but I had great motivation to work as I was already preparing to return for second year at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry. Having a goal in mind definitely helped push me through three months of on average seventy hours a week of work.
Now I have been home in Redding, California for almost a month and am loving it! Already in Second Year I am learning so much more about myself and God and it is definitely a breath of fresh air to be back with amazing friends! This was most certainly worth the exhausting, hectic, frustrating hours of work I put in. My lesson for the value of hard work is learned.
Love you all!
