World of Walmart

I just recently started working at Walmart and, for the first time since I started work, I worked in Electronics.  It's very different from working in the Meat Department.  But that difference seemed to energize me for the whole day.  I was working with what I love, as in electronics, doing what I love, in helping people, and as a result I made it through the whole day without one gripe or complaint.  I really do love working in the Electronics at Walmart.  In fact, it was slightly depressing when I ended my shift.  Once I got on my bus ride home I realized that my feet hurt, I was no longer serving peoples needs, and my energy level dropped significantly.  Today I found a goal to strive for while working at Walmart.  Whether or not that's where God wants me to finally end up, I don't know.  But as just as the poet John Bunyan says, God will provide the means to do His will.  Just so you all know what I'm talking about, here is the poem.

Run John run the law commands
but gives you neither feet or hands
Better news the Gospel brings
It bids me fly and gives me wings.

So, I will try and not listen to what the world tells me I should do for my life and try harder to hear what God wants me to do, knowing full well that He will provide the way.
