I am especially grateful to God for the experiences that he has allowed me to have in the working world. It is upon these experiences that the messages which are contained in these inspirations are drawn. Had God not been gracious and merciful enough to give me a testimony, then he would not have been able to use me to deliver a message of hope, motivation, inspiration, encouragement and strength to those who are a part of the working world. These inspirations are designed from God to show us that he is with us in our workplaces, no matter what our work situations may be. God wants his followers to know that he controls our workplaces, our co-workers and our work environments. He is orchestrating everything that happens to us on our jobs. We must allow God to get the glory by allowing him to guide us to the purposes for which he made us. God wants us to know that he will help us to overcome a hostile working environment just as he has overcome this hostile world. It is my prayer that these inspirations will provide a source of help for individuals who journey to discovering how to succeed in the working world.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh within us. Ephesians 3:20

Dream Job: 

Some people just happen into a career that is perfect for them. They don't spend any time planning what they want to do, or be. But, somehow, they make it to the right place at the right time, and the doors of opportunity are open to them before they even knock. They are blessed with their dream jobs without even knowing they had one. Other people plan exactly what they want. Yet, their search for their dream jobs never become a reality.

I have discovered that no matter how perfectly we plan, only God can provide us with an ideal job. Even though we may think that we know the best job for us, we must be careful not to exclude God from our pursuits. While we are seeking a job that will fulfill us on a personal level, God has plans of giving us a job where he can be glorified. When we don't include God, we are telling him that we don't want his involvement. Yet, God can create such an ideal work situation for us, that we can't even imagine how wonderful it can be.

As Christians we must know that, God can do more for us that we can ever do for ourselves, or that we could possibly even imagine in our wildest dreams. This means that although we think we have a dream job in mind, God can totally blow our minds, and bless us with a career that is so fantastic that we wouldn't be able to imagine anything so glorious. When God blesses us with our ideal positions in life, he will get the glory, we will reap the benefits, and the world will be made a better place because God has us doing exactly what he made us for.

Many of us are in work situations where we are so far away from our ideal career goals, that we think it impossible for us to ever have the jobs that we once dreamed of. God wants you to have more than a boring job which beats you down, rather than helps you to blossom. God wants you in a career that you love doing, rather than just a job that pays the bills. If we ask and trust him, God will do more for us in terms of our careers, than we ever thought possible.

We can live our dreams and have our dream jobs by calling on the power that is within us. God works within us, but we have to work with him, recognizing him and acknowledging his power and presence, as he leads and guides us to our dreams.

For a long time, I have dreamed of a career where I can blossom, and my natural talents and abilities can be put to work for your glory. I ask that you will create the opportunity and allow me the wisdom to recognize you, as the doors begin to open for me.
