A Job Too Good to Be True?
Just before we left for P and L’s, JD called me back.
I finally got the details about the job he was offering—and wow.
If there was ever a job that seemed tailor-made for me, this would be it.
- Office Manager position (with a mix of other duties, like a start-up)
- Small office—just 10 people
- $50K salary
- 17 vacation days + 9 paid holidays
- Paid medical & dental
- 401k with matching
- 20% annual bonus
How sweet is that?? But then came the clincher… The office is in North Raleigh—at least an hour’s drive each way.
That means:
- I’d be gone all day, every day
- We only have one car, so Tom would either have to drive me every day or be stranded without it
- It would completely remove us from what God is doing with us in ministry
That felt like a neon sign flashing “NOT the right path!”
I told JD I’d pray about it, send him my resume, and check out the company website—so I haven’t fully shut the door.
But at this point, if this job is where God wants me, He’s going to have to make it very clear. Like, miraculously provide another car clear. Or show me how this job fits into His plan for ministry.
Until then, I’m staying put and waiting on Him.
