Halleluyah.
Just when you think "this is it!" my dear, dear good Lord opens a door for me!
Here's the little miracle: I had just fired the boss. Reckless I know. But I've just had enough of him screaming he'll fire me every week. So, I did what any dignified pro would do, I fired him.
Well, that's not the miracle, that's just the intro to my miraculous story.
Two bloody weeks of trawling the net for copywriter jobs came up with blah. I was short-listed and attended two interviews, which meant I was still employable. But no call ups.
Then. And then.
A linked-in to an old motoring editor I knew. A proposal to him drew an immediate e-mail reply. A call minutes later and we are set up to meet with a proposed first day at work on Tuesday 29 November 2011.
We meet on Monday to discuss what I can do for his 4x4 magazine. I'm revved up already.
What co-incidence (miracle) is this? I could contact him any time, yet I did not. It really took six degrees of directional change. Or could it be that God just nudged me in the direction I must take? I would like to believe this just as I was named by God. That "Diamond" name story will be for another day.
It's not about the money any more. It's more about what I was born to do. What a drama queen I am. Sheeezzzzeee.
What a lovely Christmas present...what, what?
Okay, okay calm down, I haven't nabbed the job yet but a miraculous miracle nevertheless.
Keep up the prayers brothers and sisters. Praise God. Amen.
