It has been a long time since I have posted anything on my blog. In fact, it has been so long, I think I have forgotten how to even write. But, I am going to shoot for it anyway. In the past few months I have had a lot going on. Between a new job, serving my Church and loving Jesus, as well as starting a small Web Design business; I feel like I’ve been going nonstop!
But it has all been good. I started working for Arvato about 4 months ago. Most of you don’t know what Arvato is, so I’ll make it simple. It is a Microsoft vendor. Basically this means that Microsoft pays this company to do work for them. I’m not sure if it is cheaper for Microsoft this way, or what, but it has created a great opportunity for me to look at the corporate world. By working with such a large corporation, I have seen business done in ways that I could only imagine. My communication skills have greatly increased, and my confidence in my capability to reason has gotten much greater. Arvato has definitely been an adventure, and I am very blessed to have been given a job there.
On top of this, I’ve decided to take a break from college. I know, college is so important, but I just couldn’t afford it without taking out massive loans which I think would be irrational. I’ve decided to head back to school when I am financially stable enough to, however, with work progressing and other things arising in life, I am hoping I don’t put it off too long.
I also have started a small business named “Ever Present Web Design”. This business is still in its beginning stages, but I am hopeful. I really feel like with my motivation and ability I will be able to create a service of value. I hope to see this business flourish within the next 3 months, but if it does not, it will be an amazing learning experience.
Last, but definitely not least, I have been serving Jesus! For a small amount of time, I fell God allowed me to be in a dry spot, where I had to overcome and push to feel His presence. I feel that I have overcome this place, and I am now more motivated to serve others, and I am more overwhelmed by the greatness of God in my life. I am seeing Him move in ways that I never suspected, and He is revealing things to me in scripture which I have never even fathomed. God is so good, and I am so happy and grateful to be living in His grace.
I guess, this post was just something to break the ice! I hope to be on here way more often, talking about ministry, work, business, and much much more.
