He's forever.

1 john 2:17
The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.



it's pretty quiet for a saturday night- usually, on the weekends around this time, people upstairs or across the hall are blasting their music and getting drunk. it's nice to sit at home on a saturday night with some peace and tranquility with the Word of God. I've been skipping around in psalm lately, and even read a part of it today-- however, i really really want to blog about this passage up there.

i had an interview yesterday.. my first time doing second round of interviews. it was a pretty important one and i think i might have screwed it up. i definitely walked out of there, not very confident. for one, i didn't get much sleep the night before. two, right before going into the interview, i read a 40-page case study for my marketing class while i was waiting in the lobby (not sucha bright idea, considering it drains the energy out of you). three, i said a lot of ums. i was conscious and aware of the fact that i was saying it excessively, but for some reason, i couldnt help it. and four, a lot of the questions stumped me BAD. probably the worst interview i think i have ever done-- and yet, this was probably the most important one. my post interview evaulation consists of "i should have done this and that better..". there's a lot of things that i didn't mention that i SHOULd have mentioned. or i should have walked in with more energy-- leave the interviewers a lasting impression of who i am. i think i might have failed at that last part.


it's stressful, but it's so funny how easily my mind can get caught up in an interview. i realize that i just have to leave it in the hands of God at this point. if He wants it for me, then He'll give it to me.. if He wants another path for me, then He'll provide that other walkway eventually. even though at this point, i'm still so tangled in my thoughts and regrets from yesterday, let's look at the big picture here.. all this stress, this desire for the job, or even the job itself-- is nothing compared to the glory of GOd. they'll pass away,, but if our hearts continue to seek God, all things will fall in place. pain is temporary, but He lasts forever.
