Just a job???

So I've been back to work now for two weeks and I was placed in a role that I'm not entirely found about.  Thank God it's only a temporary assignment until Christmas.  I'm working as a file clerk, which is oh so much fun! (can you sense my sarcasm here?).  To me this is a huge step down from being an Administrative Assistant and Occupational Health and Safety Coordinator, so I ask the question:

Have you ever just taken any job you could get because it was better then nothing at all?

As much as the credit card companies out there will tell you the recession is over, I beg to differ, given the lack of job prospects out there.  I feel blessed in a way to have something that pays the bills, but my body for one isn't.  My muscles hurt from filing all day, every day.......  But enough of my complaining.

Its my belief that God has a plan for us, whether we like it or not, and that each move we make is a move in the right direction (providing it's not illegal obviously).  So the way I see it is that, it's not just a job, it's a very calculated move that God has placed me in to get me to the next move...then the next.  Maybe I won't be making the "big bucks" in a few weeks, or months, doing what my soul was supposed to do, but I believe that it serves a purpose for the time being and something so much better is in the works for me.

I once heard a quote, and I think it was Joyce Meyer, who said that just because you see no results doesn't mean that your not growing.  God is working his magic behind the scenes to bring your souls purpose to light. So I will thank him ever day, despite the pain (growth is all about pain by the way!) and I will happily file paperwork and know that this too shall pass and something greater is right around the corner!
