At one point, in my young life, I sent a true story to magazines. My grandmother and most faithful cheerleader urged me and helped me with a list of magazines she thought would snatch it up. None did. They didn't believe it was true. It was about an LSD trip, my one and only such trip. Looking back, it was really 'out there'... though well written, we both thought.
They trickled in, one rejection letter after another. I thought I would never write again, and then Reader's Digest accepted a short anecdote and I felt somewhat avenged. I had been published!
Yesterday I was pretty down in the dumps. I was rejected by a cable company. The job seemed to fit my resume, but I didn't fit what they were looking for, apparently.
So, today I am on Craig's List and have applied for 8 other jobs in the area. I also spoke with my previous manager and feel assured I could maybe find work in my old company if I am willing to move. So, there is hope.
No one knows the future, but God knows the plans he has for me and I am trusting Him. With God, there is always hope for a new tomorrow, for a new life, for a new home with Him!
