All about to apply for jobs.

My life is right now all about to apply for jobs. Which isn’t the most interesting part of life. I can’t say I have applied for thousands of jobs but more then hundred for sure.

“I am to stubborn to give up.”

In this period, which started kind of last Autumn in a combination of a course of «office an administration» my focus has mostly been on «reception» or similar kind of jobs. And most of them I got “refusal of job” back. Which hits you. I guess it hits you more in the beginning then after a while. At least that my case. Every time I get “refusal of job” back I get motivation to keep doing this until I actually get a job. I am to stubborn to give up, keep applying and stay positive but to find a new area that might work or might be easier to get into by myself isn’t as easy.

I met a friend last Saturday on the Jesus Festival here in Oslo, she asked me how my life was and how I was praying when it comes to jobs and future. And she told me, if you pray for what your heart beast for, God can open a door even in a job. I thought about that all the way back home. When I came home I said “Okay God, lets see if this works”.

The week started… and Tuesday came, I was doing daily things until the evening which is the time I check for jobs. As normal I went to the most common page here in Norway to look for job (finn.no) to see what was out. Suddenly I came over a page and a job adverts that I hadn’t even thought about but it was an interesting job! In administration. But it was to late for my brain to start the application process (at ten past twelve am).

“Taken a new turn.”

Next day came and after my “morning coffee” picked I up my laptop and started. And during the search of jobs and punching in information to the CV online I came over a third job (in school administration) that I haven’t been thinking of since 2001… I can say, that how I think about what kind of job I would like to have have taken a new turn.

If I think about what my heart beats for, it would be to work in an environment with teenagers. Not as a teacher but in the school office or even as a math teacher, but only math! I believe God has open up a window for me to a new room with clue’s in which I shall look for an other kind of job then what I have done. I believe God has started with something in my thoughts. What my dreams are about. I do not just want to get a job, I want to get a job were I do something for other. That’s have a purpose more then just urn money.

To urn money is good but it is not everything. To fulfill dreams is also good. But I want to something more but not for myself.

I think that what my friend said is logic. If we come to God with whats on our heart he can open new doors and help us with all the other things in life.
