First Day...

Just finished the first day of my two-week stint as a freelance writer. For pay, I got to research travel to the Bahamas and Barbados. I handed in my first article on the Bahamas and got some really encouraging feedback.

We'll see what God has in store for me in terms of this gig. I'm trying to just glorify Him in as many ways as I am able, and not try to see into the future.

Freelance Update

Hey! I got the freelance job and I start Monday. It's only two weeks, but we'll see what God does.

All I can say, is this is crazy!!! Crazy-good!!

:-)

A month later...God is still good!

So.... nothing ever came of submitting my resume for the writing job. Which was disappointing, but not surprising since they listed their ad on a well-known job website. Those job postings literally receive hundreds of responses.

I still question whether or not God wants me to be an Executive Assistant again. I have a really wonderful-looking resume, I interview well, but there seems to be no interest in me from the companies to whom I've been presented.

I'm speaking to an acquaintance from church later today about doing some freelance writing, and a possible job. We'll see what happens.

On another note, I asked God if, in His graciousness, He still wanted me to write, to please resurrect this call on my life. Soon after, He sent a reader to my Gathered Chick blog, also named Heidi, who is writing a book set in a similar time period as mine. We have decided to work together on the research. What a blessing she has been to me!!! And how good is our God!?!? In my flesh, I would definitely remove a job from someone who is just dragging their feet. But, for whatever reason, this is something God wants me to do. I feel honored and blessed that He would continue to give me the opportunity.

Stay tuned...
