Job Search

Another poem which made it somewhere. Once again, it is non-secular in nature.


JOB SEARCH


Numbers of jobs were limited,

And candidates well qualified,

No godfather known anywhere,

No job contacts identified.



I must admit that I worried,

Watched peers get jobs from ‘papa’s friend’,

As I filled yet another form,

My despair, none can comprehend!



But that night I was reminded,

As I read the verse for that day,

The best job contact of them all,

Was mine! And just a prayer away!



This story has still not ended,

My career’s not quite begun,

But now it’s a wondrous mystery,

Surprises, after all, are fun.



And so, my job search has taught me,

To rest in His plan and His will;

The greatest Job-Finder chooses,

As he whispers, “Trust and be still”.
