Today is a good day.

Today, I will be interviewing for the position of Assistant Manager for my Starbucks. This would be a huge blessing to me for more reasons that just more money than I'm making now. Over the past few months, I've felt as though it's time for some changes; some specific and some unknown (if that makes any sense). It has truly been interesting to see this situation develop over the past month. A few months ago, I had a conversation with my brother that helped me realize I ought to look into training to be ready to take an assistant manager position. I expressed this to my manager, and about a month or two later, we were told our store would be getting an assitant manager. It seemed as though God had dropped an opportunity right into my lap. Obviously, I'm not just assuming that I absolutely have this job locked up. There are 6 total applicants, and a few that definitely have more experience, Starbucks-wise, than I do. I haven't let that deter me, or my understanding of God's sovereignty. The truth of the matter is that God already knows who is getting this promotion. I have been praying specifically in this matter, however. First, I have been praying that God allows me to have this job. Secondly, I have been praying that if given the job, I will still be able to go home in July to play bass for TLC. Lastly, I have been praying that if I do not get the job, that I will still rejoice for the opportunity to interview, because the next time there is an assistant manager, I will be all the more prepared to interview again, and potentially get that job.
