Day forty-one

As I write this, it's 10:03 pm. I just finished my first day of work at the printing company. Normally, I would still be there at this time, but I had to come an hour early, so they let me go an hour early.

First off, I am grateful to God that He put me in this place. The people who work there are friendly and were helpful when I had a question about some issue. It seems like there's so much to remember and so many minute details to which I must pay attention. On the plus side, the packing work itself isn't difficult. From what I've heard, they want to bring on even more people. I hope that I work hard and faithfully as long as God keeps me there.

Since I am rather pessimistic by nature, I tend to let my feelings get the better of me. I have trouble dealing with change, and changing jobs seemed difficult, even if it has been for the best. This job has a lot of pluses over my last job: close to home, better pay, steady hours, vacation time, benefits. It's a job where you can stay busy, which I don't mind, since I tend to be a clockwatcher.

All in all, it seems like a good place for me to be, especially since they seem glad to have me there. I don't know how long God will keep me there; I could be there for ten years or ten months for all I know.

Lord, this is where you have led me for this time; help me to trust in You now and whenever You may lead me.
