Identity

School is back in session after six amazing summertime weeks off.

Anticipating the extra time on my hands, I applied for a job.  I was told I'd be hearing from them in a few days.  That was a week and a day ago.

Therefore I know (1) I didn't get the job.  (2) I never heard from them.

I think that's stink.  Really stink.

I've just got to get over it, I know.

So.  Here I am again with time on my hands and I find myself, yet again, struggling throughout the day with feelings of worthlessness.

There is, of course, a lesson in all of this.

Thankfully this story doesn't end with those feelings of worthlessness.  Because that's what they are.  Feelings  Just feelings.

What I know for a fact is I am far from worthless.  I have to keep this fact in the front of my mind every day and make every day count for something.  

This is the day the Lord has made; I WILL rejoice and be glad in it!

UPDATE...
I just received an email from the cafe where I applied for a job. Didn't get it. No surprise there and I'm pleased they followed up. Of course I can't help but wonder what I could've said or done differently that could have gotten me the job...  Perhaps nothing.  Not the right gig for me.
