Seeking Jesus... Day 24 Tues. Sept. 25, 2012

I am on my last 6 days of this blog post. There have been a couple of days where I have found it difficult to reflect and find God working  in my life. There have been days when it couldn't have been more obvious. Today is Tuesday. Tuesdays are spent at church for a majority of the day. We have a staff meting that begins mid morning and usually runs until early afternoon. By the time we're done with that, we've missed lunch so we usually all head out together and grab a late lunch. After that, it's usually back to work as there are even more items on the to-do list after a staff meeting.

Today I find myself looking at where I've been and where I'm going. Over the past 4 years things have been very consistent. I have spent the summers in North Carolina and then returned and worked at Trinity during the school year as well as attend college. During the year, I have worked different part-time jobs.There have been things that have been comfortable about that. Having that consistency and being able to do stuff that I really enjoy have been a good thing. With this consistency, there has also been inconsistency. All of this stuff that I am doing is part time. I am getting to the point where I'm ready to settle down. While I have a consistent pattern in my life, it doesn't seem like it. It seems like I am constantly looking for conisstency. I'm not sure if that came out the way I meant it to, I think it did...

I want things to settle down. Right now, it doesn't seem that way. If I could pick a job right now and begin work full time, it would be camp ministry, hands down. That is where my passion is. I would be happy in church ministry too, but again, it's finding that job. In looking for a full-time job, it's difficult too. I have 3 years of seminary to go and I know that will take up some time as well. Looking ahead, the next three years seems like the last four, a lot of consistency but also some inconsistency.... We'll see...
