March 13, 2006

Wow! What a great morning! I am so blessed to be able to enjoy this and be able to have time to sit and drink my coffee , read, and share the blessings that I feel are pervading my spirit!! I just woke up today with a wonderful feeling of gratitude to be alive, to have the opportunity to even interview for a position that I feel passionate about, to share my knowledge and skills with, as well as excitement and enthusiasm.

How appropriate on a day that I would usually tremble with fear and anxiety, that I would choose to open my Bible to read my memory verse for the week and it would be this:

"The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the ONE and ONLY, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."- John 1:14

So cool! He is in ME! That is so comforting to know that I am never alone, even when my physical world tells me so. Even in my job interview, He is on my shoulder putting every word in my mouth and thought in my head, filling me with possibility! I am ready! BRING IT ON!! He understands what it's like to be me and given me an identity in Him, an heir to his wonderful kingdom, that I am totally undeserving of and that is the ultimate gratitude that I have.

An interesting note, my bible footnotes state that verse 14 states that Christ became:

1)PERFECT TEACHER
2) PERFECT EXAMPLE
3)PERFECT SACRIFICE

How appropriate that speaks to me in my job pursuits, as I am constantly open and pursuing perfection, but I am only made PERFECT through Him and His teaching, example, and most of all sacrifice.
