Lesson #26

I've always struggled finding a job that I felt good at and even finding a job that I really want to have. I've been a cashier, server, teller, teacher, and accountant (3 different types). I graduated from college 6 years ago and am at my 4th job :) I guess I've always wanted to be the best at something...anything, really.

I hate learning curves, I really do. I am totally impatient and if I try something that I am not automatically good at...I lose interest fast.

But not so much anymore...

Surprisingly, I've learned to be satisfied with myself when it comes to jobs. I've always had a desire to "want to make a difference". Who doesn't? I tried teaching, and that obviously did not work out:).

I have learned that no matter what type of job I am doing that I am working for God. If I can put into practice what I believe no matter where I am at or what I am doing...isn't that kinda making a difference?

I read the following verse a while back, and since then I always remember this while I am working...

"Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ." Colossians 3:23-24
