5 years from now

OK, so yesterday I have received the biggest challenge for my life in n long time.

I had a job interview for another IT company, doing pretty much what I am doing currently. The reason for looking at this job is mainly to be closer to home, except for the fact that the project that they want to employ me for, will be at the client site, which is further from home than I am currently at. PROBLEM

But, this is not the actual challenge, as that is pretty much an easy one. During the interview, the interviewer asked me basically one question, and he really wanted to get into it, which I will be grateful to him forever, as it opened my eyes a bit.

This question was, “Where do you see yourself in 5 years’ time?”

Easy one? Usually yes, but not this time.

See, the fact is, I have been moving jobs pretty much each year for the last 5 years, and I have been telling myself each and every time, that it is for career growth. This was true, as with every move I would get a little bit more money. The fact of the matter is though, that I struggle to find happiness in what I am doing on a daily basis.

Up until earlier this year, I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life, and was happy riding the corporate wave until I find what I am looking for, but it has become clear to me that I do not want to be in the corporate world.

I want to be in ministry!

But, I unfortunately don’t have the faith yet to leave my job and step out in faith, but I wish I had it though.

I am now, on a mission to be able to right my 5 year vision on a piece of paper, or even on this blog, but to have it in writing, and then I am going to do everything in my power to align whatever I do, to get to that goal. I have seen a bit of light at the end of the tunnel today though, but to get there, I will have to get a couple of key role players to buy into this idea I have, and then for them to put their faith in me, to make it work for me and them, and for the growth of the Kingdom of our Lord.

So, my request to you guys are, to please carry me in your prayers on this matter, as I am at the end of my tether with regard to my day job, and can think of only one thing, all day.
