The twist
When I started the clothing business I knew I wanted to work part time while the business was trying to take off. I knew it would be hard to find a job in this economy, but this letter is really laughable.
My college degree is in ANIMAL HEALTH SCIENCE, and the job title is ANIMAL HEALTH INVESTIGATOR!
There is really no other explanation for the fact that I can’t get a job, even in my field of study, thann God. He obviously has a plan for my life, and He is definitely teaching me that the animal field is not where I am supposed to be at the moment.
I have recently been offered a “job” with YouthHope to be the fundraising coordinator. My mother-in-law, Heidi, started this organization in July of last year to help the homeless youth in Redlands. She started it because she has a heart for these kids and she really wants to see them get off the street, and show them that people do care. She was never a business owner, or a counselor, or a non-profit administrator, but she started YouthHope anyway. She trusted that God would show her what to do and let her know what she needed to say, and He hasn’t let her down. In fact the organization is becoming quite successful, and she is getting kids off the streets.
Now, Heidi is offering someone with no experience in fundraising, a job as a fundraising coordinator! Where no other company has seen the potential in me, Heidi has. She thinks I would be great at this, and it really does sound like something I would love to try. So I’m going to try.
So much for that degree in animal health science…but I still love the animals so you all better still adopt from your local shelter!
