following the Lord

When I came to the Christian Life Center, the position for which I applied was with the thrift shop. Other positions available included cooking for up to 75 people, something which I have never done, and have never considered in the realm of possibility. So of course the cook has not shown up. While the director and his wife went off site to tend to family business, truck drivers unexpectedly came to stay overnight. Just a family-size group, which the Lord used to show me: if I am going to live on-site, it makes no sense for me not to know how to run the kitchen (Where is this? do we have that?
Regardless of your expertise, put yourself in someone else's kitchen or workshop without a run-through by the owner, and you get the idea.)
So, even if we do get a cook, I will probably be an assistant, just to know what is going on.
There is also the chance that the desk receptionist position will become a possibility, at least temporarily. Whatever position I have held, it has always been my practice to learn as much as I can about how things are done.
I am looking forward to where the Lord will go with this one.
This afternoon, I went shopping for shorts. It is getting too hot in the afternoons for long pants to be comfortable unless one is in air conditioning. The thrift shop will not be air conditioned until we move into the building: probably another month.
