Prayer request for Stacey 7/25/06

[Stacey Maldonado]

I apologize in advance but I do tend to be wordy and it is now almost
3:30 a.m. so that doesn't help!

As many of you know, I have recently completed a degree in Human
Services that I started many years ago. I finally took that last step
because God told me to. I didn't know why it was suddenly a rush job
but I did as I was instructed to do. Sunday night, I happened upon an
opening for a job at Yavapai College doing exactly what I did for
employment during my four years in college. I was VERY excited at the
prospect of doing something for a living that I enjoyed that much. I
became fearful... afraid to be told I am not qualified because the job
pays quite well compared to what we are used to. I prayed about it
last night and tried to go to bed. I couldn't sleep because I kept
thinking of things to use as an excuse as to why I couldn't get that
job which just happens to have an application closing date of 7/25/06.
One of those things was that my supervisors are no longer at the
university and I have no way of proving the pertinent details of what I
had done there. I have looked for these two fantastic people several
times over the past few years just to get in touch with them. I have
asked mutual acquaintances if they have current information to no
avail. Since it didn't look like I was going to get any sleep
anyway, I got back up. (thankfully, Daniel sleeps through almost
anything) I got on the computer and sent yet another email to a friend
about the two illusive supervisors. THEN I Googled them... and THERE
they were! BOTH of them! Huh!?!! A sign perhaps that I shouldn't
be so quick to dismiss the opportunity?! Monday I awoke with a drive
to get a resume packet together. That has taken me all day since I
haven't used my resume in several years or written a cover letter. I
will be driving a borrowed vehicle (mine has issues right now) to
Prescott Tuesday morning to submit my resume with a smile and a prayer.

All of that was to say... Please pray with me over this prospective
position. I would like it soooooooooooooo much but if this wasn't
what the Lord had planned for my degree then I don't want it.
Frankly, I have to admit I am so excited I can't stand it! Thank you
for your prayer support!

On another note about our Garden family... has anyone talked to Frank
and Barbara lately? We should stay up to date on how they are doing.

Just as a reminder, we do have several Gardeners (?) traveling this
week & next so keep them in your prayers. The Gamble men are headed to
North Carolina on Wednesday and Tina is due to come home the following
week sometime.

Hey Stac,

 

I am praying about your meeting today.  I am sooo excited for you I could spit (not really, but close).  Frank and Barb were here yesterday.  They are well and have purchased a new vehicle.  It should be more reliable.  Barb is looking great.  Losing a lot of weight (50) lbs or more.  She says it has helped her and she is getting around more easily.  Thought I would pass that info on to you.  Have a blessed day....
