GEN readers, here's a letter from an email sent out by Jobseekers of Peachtree City. It's addressed to one of the Jobseeker's leaders, Dave O'Farrell, and it just proves how important it is to network when you're looking for work!
"Dave,
I wanted to write and thank each and every one of you at JobSeekers for helping me in my search for a job. Not only did the weekly presentations help, which included tips and tricks for resume writing and interview presentation, you also helped me immensely with my self-confidence and self-esteem!
I would venture to say that I distributed approximately 300-400 resumes and applications via the Internet – with NO bites whatsoever. I started "networking" through what I learned at JobSeekers and contacted many old co-workers and classmates. One of my old friends from high school told me her company might have a position coming available so I forwarded her my resume. She personally walked it over to the head man's office and he sent me an email within two days letting me know he had it "in-hand" and there was indeed a position he would like to discuss with me if I was interested. I went in for an interview this past Friday afternoon, went to their staffing agency on Monday morning for my background check and drug screen, and started on Tuesday morning.
It is unlike any other position I have ever held, but so far I'm loving it. It is also much closer to home....
After being out of work since ...2009, this was a welcomed opportunity.
I just wanted to thank you all for your love and support over the past several months, and for the awesome program you provide for those out of work or looking elsewhere. I pray I do not have to go through this again any time soon, but I know I will be looking to you guys again should I find myself back in those unemployed shoes.
Sincerely,
(Name withheld for privacy)"
Jobseekers emphasizes not only networking in person and by phone, but also via LinkedIn.com. Read on:
"If you are not on LinkedIn, it's very likely that you are seriously impacting your job search. If you are not using LinkedIn to advance your campaign, you are quickly falling behind! Social media isn't a fad; it's a fundamental shift in the way we communicate. If you doubt my words, click on this link. According this video, 80% of all employers use social media as a recruiting tool; 95% of them use LinkedIn. Come tomorrow to hear LinkedIn expert Linda Wells share the secrets to leveraging LinkedIn for job search.
Who: All are welcome; the topics are targeted for professionals, managers and executives.
What: JobSeekers is a nondenominational career ministry.
When: Friday mornings from 7:30 to 10:00 am.
Where: First Baptist Church in Peachtree City; 208 Willow Bend Road.
Why: We work with you to find a job, and we walk with you on your journey of faith.
Attire: Business casual.
Agenda: 7:30 coffee / 7:45 welcome and devotional / 8:10 introductions and announcements / 8:45 job search training module / 10:00 adjourn to the Atlanta Bread Company
We look forward to seeing you on Friday!" - from the Jobseekers of Peachtree City, GA newsletter, by Dave O'Farrell. Dave's group meets every Friday.
Also--don't forget that the GEN group is going to carpool to the Roswell United Methodist Church career network meeting on Monday, Aug. 9. The meeting starts with a free dinner ($3 donation requested) at 5:45 pm, so we'll leave from First Presbyterian around 4:15. After dinner, the meeting breaks into small groups and workshops, and then there is a speaker. Everything winds up by 9 pm.
You don't have to be a member to go with us. Just give First Presbyterian a call at 770 942 0710, and ask for Lynn, no later than Aug. 8 to say you want to ride or caravan with us.
If you come, be sure to bring your resume, business cards, and to dress for a business-type meeting. To see more about this meeting, visit http://www.rumc.com/page.aspx?id=79363
Have a great weekend.

A devotional from Max Lucado
Friends, this was so good, I just had to share it today!
The Guest of the Maestro
by Max Lucado
What happens when a dog interrupts a concert? To answer that, come with me to a spring night in Lawrence, Kansas.
Take your seat in Hoch Auditorium and behold the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra—the oldest continually operating orchestra in the world. The greatest composers and conductors in history have directed this orchestra. It was playing in the days of Beethoven (some of the musicians have been replaced).
You watch as stately dressed Europeans take their seats on the stage. You listen as professionals carefully tune their instruments. The percussionist puts her ear to the kettle drum. A violinist plucks the nylon sting. A clarinet player tightens the reed. And you sit a bit straighter as the lights dim and the tuning stops. The music is about to begin.
The conductor, dressed in tails, strides onto the stage, springs onto the podium, and gestures for the orchestra to rise. You and two thousand others applaud. The musicians take their seats, the maestro takes his position, and the audience holds its breath.
There is a second of silence between lightning and thunder. And there is a second of silence between the raising of the baton and the explosion of the music. But when it falls the heavens open and you are delightfully drenched in the downpour of Beethoven's Third Symphony.
Such was the power of that spring night in Lawrence, Kansas. That hot, spring night in Lawrence, Kansas. I mention the temperature so you'll understand why the doors were open. It was hot. Hoch Auditorium, a historic building, was not air-conditioned. Combine bright stage lights with formal dress and furious music, and the result is a heated orchestra. Outside doors on each side of the stage were left open in case of a breeze.
Enter, stage right, the dog. A brown, generic, Kansas dog. Not a mean dog. Not a mad dog. Just a curious dog. He passes between the double basses and makes his way through the second violins and into the cellos. His tail wags in beat with the music. As the dog passes between the players, they look at him, look at each other, and continue with the next measure.
The dog takes a liking to a certain cello. Perhaps it was the lateral passing of the bow. Maybe it was the eye-level view of the strings. Whatever it was, it caught the dog's attention and he stopped and watched. The cellist wasn't sure what to do. He'd never played before a canine audience. And music schools don't teach you what dog slobber might do to the lacquer of a sixteenth-century Guarneri cello. But the dog did nothing but watch for a moment and then move on.
Had he passed on through the orchestra, the music might have continued. Had he made his way across the stage into the motioning hands of the stagehand, the audience might have never noticed. But he didn't leave. He stayed. At home in the splendor. Roaming through the meadow of music.
He visited the woodwinds, turned his head at the trumpets, stepped between the flutists, and stopped by the side of the conductor. And Beethoven's Third Symphony came undone.
The musicians laughed. The audience laughed. The dog looked up at the conductor and panted. And the conductor lowered his baton.
The most historic orchestra in the world. One of the most moving pieces ever written. A night wrapped in glory, all brought to a stop by a wayward dog.
The chuckles ceased as the conductor turned. What fury might erupt? The audience grew quiet as the maestro faced them. What fuse had been lit? The polished, German director looked at the crowd, looked down at the dog, then looked back at the people, raised his hands in a universal gesture and . . . shrugged.
Everyone roared.
He stepped off the podium and scratched the dog behind the ears. The tail wagged again. The maestro spoke to the dog. He spoke in German, but the dog seemed to understand. The two visited for a few seconds before the maestro took his new friend by the collar and led him off the stage. You'd have thought the dog was Pavarotti the way the people applauded. The conductor returned and the music began and Beethoven seemed none the worse for the whole experience.
Can you find you and me in this picture?
I can. Just call us Fido. And consider God the Maestro.
And envision the moment when we will walk onto his stage. We won't deserve it. We will not have earned it. We may even surprise the musicians with our presence.
The music will be like none we've ever heard. We'll stroll among the angels and listen as they sing. We'll gaze at heaven's lights and gasp as they shine. And we'll walk next to the Maestro, stand by his side, and worship as he leads.
These final chapters remind us of that moment. They challenge us to see the unseen and live for that event. They invite us to tune our ears to the song of the skies and long—long for the moment when we'll be at the Maestro's side.
He, too, will welcome. And he, too, will speak. But he will not lead us away. He will invite us to remain, forever his guests on his stage.

Five Mistakes Online Job Hunters Make, by Elizabeth Garone
By ELIZABETH GARONE
In a tight job market, building and maintaining an online presence is critical to networking and job hunting. Done right, it can be an important tool for present and future networking and useful for potential employers trying to get a sense of who you are, your talents and your experience. Done wrong, it can easily take you out of the running for most positions.
Here are five mistakes online job hunters make:
1. Forgetting manners.
If you use Twitter or you write a blog, you should assume that hiring managers and recruiters will read your updates and your posts. A December 2009 study by Microsoft Corp. found that 79% of hiring managers and job recruiters review online information about job applicants before making a hiring decision. Of those, 70% said that they have rejected candidates based on information that they found online. Top reasons listed? Concerns about lifestyle, inappropriate comments, and unsuitable photos and videos.
"Everything is indexed and able to be searched," says Miriam Salpeter, an Atlanta-based job search and social media coach. "Even Facebook, which many people consider a more private network, can easily become a trap for job seekers who post things they would not want a prospective boss to see."
.Don't be lulled into thinking your privacy settings are foolproof. "All it takes is one person sharing information you might not want shared, forwarding a post, or otherwise breaching a trust for the illusion of privacy in a closed network to be eliminated," says Ms. Salpeter, who recommends not posting anything illegal (even if it's a joke), criticism of a boss, coworker or client, information about an interviewer, or anything sexual or discriminatory. "Assume your future boss is reading everything you share online," she says.
2. Overkill.
Blanketing social media networks with half-done profiles accomplishes nothing except to annoy the exact people you want to impress: prospective employees trying to find out more about on you.
One online profile done well is far more effective than several unpolished and incomplete ones, says Sree Sreenivasan, dean of students at Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. He made the decision early on to limit himself to three social-networking sites: Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. "There is just not enough time," he says. "Pick two or three, then cultivate a presence there."
.Many people make the mistake of joining LinkedIn and other social media sites and then just letting their profiles sit publicly unfinished, says Krista Canfield, a LinkedIn spokesperson. "Just signing up for an account simply isn't enough," she says. "At a bare minimum, make sure you're connected to at least 35 people and make sure your profile is 100 percent complete. Members with complete profiles are 40 times more likely to receive opportunities through LinkedIn."
LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter are the three most popular social networking sites for human resources managers to use for recruiting, according to a survey released last month by JobVite, a maker of recruiting software.
3. Not getting the word out.
When accounting firm Dixon Hughes recently had an opening for a business development executive, Emily Bennington, the company's director of marketing and development, posted a link to the opportunity on her Facebook page. "I immediately got private emails from a host of people in my network, none of whom I knew were in the market for a new job," she says. " I understand that there are privacy concerns when it comes to job hunting, but if no one knows you're looking, that's a problem, too."
Changing this can be as simple as updating your status on LinkedIn and other social networking sites to let people know that you are open to new positions. If you're currently employed and don't want your boss to find out that you're looking, you'll need to be more subtle. One way to do this is to give prospective employers a sense of how you might fit in, says Dan Schawbel, author of "Me 2.0" and founder of Millennial Branding. "I recommend a positioning, or personal brand statement, that depicts who you are, what you do, and what audience you serve, so that people get a feeling for how you can benefit their company."
4. Quantity over quality.
Choose connections wisely; only add people you actually know or with whom you've done business. Whether it's on LinkedIn, Facebook or any other networking site, "it's much more of a quality game than a quantity game," says Ms. Canfield. A recruiter may choose to contact one of your connections to ask about you; make sure that person is someone you know and trust.
And there's really no excuse for sending an automated, generic introduction, says Ms. Canfield. "Taking the extra five to 10 seconds to write a line or two about how you know the other person and why'd you'd like to connect to them can make the difference between them accepting or declining your connection request," she says. "It also doesn't hurt to mention that you're more than willing to help them or introduce them to other people in your network."
5. Online exclusivity.
Early last year, Washington's Tacoma Public Utilities posted a water meter reader position on its website. The response? More than 1,600 people applied for the $17.76 an hour position.
With the larger number of people currently unemployed (and under-employed), many employers are being inundated with huge numbers of applications for any positions they post. In order to limit the applicant pool, some have stopped posting positions on their websites and job boards, says Tim Schoonover, chairman of career consulting firm OI Partners.
Scouring the Web for a position and doing nothing else is rarely the best way to go. "When job-seekers choose to search for jobs exclusively online– rather than also include in-person networking–they may be missing out on 'hidden' opportunities," says Mr. Schoonover. "Higher-level jobs are not posted as often as lower-level jobs online. In-person networking may be needed to uncover these higher-level positions, which may be filled by executive recruiters."
In a tight job market, building and maintaining an online presence is critical to networking and job hunting. Done right, it can be an important tool for present and future networking and useful for potential employers trying to get a sense of who you are, your talents and your experience. Done wrong, it can easily take you out of the running for most positions.
Here are five mistakes online job hunters make:
1. Forgetting manners.
If you use Twitter or you write a blog, you should assume that hiring managers and recruiters will read your updates and your posts. A December 2009 study by Microsoft Corp. found that 79% of hiring managers and job recruiters review online information about job applicants before making a hiring decision. Of those, 70% said that they have rejected candidates based on information that they found online. Top reasons listed? Concerns about lifestyle, inappropriate comments, and unsuitable photos and videos.
"Everything is indexed and able to be searched," says Miriam Salpeter, an Atlanta-based job search and social media coach. "Even Facebook, which many people consider a more private network, can easily become a trap for job seekers who post things they would not want a prospective boss to see."

1. Inspiration: Feeling Stressed? Take Dr. Rahe's Test
From time to time I mention Dr. Richard Rahe's well-known stress test. Today you will have the opportunity to take the test while you are in the midst of a life-changing event.
You can estimate your risk of having a stress-related illness or accident using a calculator developed by Dr. Rahe, a world-renowned expert on stress-related illness. The test assigns a measurement called a Life Change Unit (LCU) to events -- positive and negative -- that cause stress. The higher your LCU total, the greater your risk of a stress-related illness or accident within the coming year.
Here are the top ten (out of 55) life change events:
1. Death of a child
2. Death of a spouse
3. Death of parent or sibling
4. Divorce
5. Separation from spouse due to marital difficulties or work
6. Being held in jail
7. Loss of your job
8. An illness or injury that was very serious
9. Death of a close friend
10. Pregnancy
Notice that four of the ten have to do with the death of a loved one or friend; as difficult as they are, they don't reflect on who you are as a person. One (pregnancy) is good news, and one (jail) probably hasn't happened to most of the people who read this newsletter. Of the top ten life change events, divorce and job loss represent the two biggest attacks on a person's ego.
In Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires, The Respect He Desperately Needs, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs tells the story of two friends who battled cancer and won. Both men soon found themselves unemployed. One said, "I was never depressed when dealing with cancer and possibly dying, but when I left my work, which was my identity, I went into a depression that was like nothing I had ever experienced before." Are there things worse than job loss? Absolutely; but being unemployed is one of the toughest spiritual battles you will ever face.
If you are looking for a job you may feel you've had your ego attacked by your former employer, by prospective employers who've chosen someone else over you, and by potential networking partners who've refused to help you. You may be experiencing financial difficulties, you may have lost contact with close friends you used to work with, you may have lost the structure in your day and your week and don't know what to do, and you may be facing the prospect of moving to a distant city in order to find a meaningful position. Your LCU score may be very high.
Who can relate to what I'm talking about here?
You've gone through a lot. You may go through more. When it rains, it pours. Problems compound. It seems there is no hope. Now your health is on the decline. Doctors have long recognized that stress can trigger a range of illnesses, from backache and headache to gastrointestinal problems, a weak immune system and heart attacks.
How much stress are you under? To access the test, click here. Go to "Products" and choose "A Recent Life Changes Stress Test." They charge $5; it used to be $1. No joke. I can show you my credit card bill! If you just want to read more, click here for an article about a similar study that involved Rahe and another psychiatrist.
Over a one-year period, a life change score of 450 or higher means not only that several life changes have occurred, but also that some of these changes had very high stress values. This high recent life change stress load is called a "life crisis." Two out of three people experiencing a life crisis will develop one or more illnesses, or have an accident, during the following year.
In January 2004, my score was 558. During the preceding six months I'd gotten divorced, bought a condo, lost my primary source of income and started a business. You may have guessed that I experienced financial difficulties. I also suffered a broken or dislocated rib when I slid head first into third base during a softball game; I got divorced in the morning (seven years ago last Saturday) and broke my rib the same evening. Since I was more than 100 points above 450, Dr. Rahe would say that I had a 75% chance of illness or injury in 2004. Praise the Lord I made it through in one piece; I did have a bike wreck that December, but was unhurt. My current life change score is more than 500 points lower.
By the way, life change events are not the only things that put stress on our minds, bodies and spirits. We need to take steps to guard our hearts from persistent, long-term stressors as well. I'll address this topic some other time.
I want you to learn three things from my experience:
1. You are in temporary state. As it was for me, the good news is that most people do not remain in a life crisis for more than a year or two. That's because subsequent illnesses and accidents demand your attention and you begin to cultivate important stress management and lifestyle coping capabilities. There is a purpose in your suffering. I am reminded of James' words, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." -- James 1:2-4
2. You have choices; be proactive. To decrease the length and severity of your temporary state, you must do something! Get out of bed and come to JobSeekers; I did in 2004 -- and I was the leader! I came to bless others, and I received a blessing myself. Being proactive gives you a sense of control. Even more important than JobSeekers is the decision you make about the spiritual perspective you will have on your job search and your journey through life. Jesus said, "Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." -- Matthew 6:33
3. You matter to God. No matter what happens to you in life, no matter what you do or what you've done in life, your heart matters to God. He loves you and he wants the best for you. He can take the shattered crystal and broken glass in your life and turn it into a beautiful stained glass window. God promises to work for the good of those who love him: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." -- Romans 8:28
Later in the same chapter Paul says, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? ... No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." -- Romans 8:35-39
In a devotional at JobSeekers last year, John Hobbs, Pastor of Care Counseling at Crossroads Church in Newnan, used Habakkuk 3:17-18: "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior."
Friends, God loves us even when the rain falls. God loves us even when the floods start rising. God loves us even when the storms come. In fact, we are washed by His cleansing water during the most difficult days of our lives. (Adapted from the lyrics of "Washed by the Water" by NEEDTOBREATHE.)
How are you going to respond to God's call during this significant life change event?
See you tomorrow at JobSeekers, where we are more than conquerors through him who loved us!
Tomorrow's meeting:
King Solomon, one of the wisest men ever, said, "Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisors they succeed." The more career coaching I do, the more important I see this as the cornerstone of an effective job campaign. People who have advisory teams get better results in less time. Come tomorrow and find out why.
Who: All are welcome; the topics are targeted for professionals, managers and executives.
What: JobSeekers is a nondenominational career ministry.
When: Friday mornings from 7:30 to 10:00 am.
Where: First Baptist Church in Peachtree City; 208 Willow Bend Road.
Why: We work with you to find a job, and we walk with you on your journey of faith.
Attire: Business casual.
Agenda: 7:30 coffee / 7:45 welcome and devotional / 8:10 introductions and announcements / 8:45 job search training module / 10:00 adjourn to the Atlanta Bread Company
We look forward to seeing you on Friday!

From time to time I mention Dr. Richard Rahe's well-known stress test. Today you will have the opportunity to take the test while you are in the midst of a life-changing event.
You can estimate your risk of having a stress-related illness or accident using a calculator developed by Dr. Rahe, a world-renowned expert on stress-related illness. The test assigns a measurement called a Life Change Unit (LCU) to events -- positive and negative -- that cause stress. The higher your LCU total, the greater your risk of a stress-related illness or accident within the coming year.
Here are the top ten (out of 55) life change events:
1. Death of a child
2. Death of a spouse
3. Death of parent or sibling
4. Divorce
5. Separation from spouse due to marital difficulties or work
6. Being held in jail
7. Loss of your job
8. An illness or injury that was very serious
9. Death of a close friend
10. Pregnancy
Notice that four of the ten have to do with the death of a loved one or friend; as difficult as they are, they don't reflect on who you are as a person. One (pregnancy) is good news, and one (jail) probably hasn't happened to most of the people who read this newsletter. Of the top ten life change events, divorce and job loss represent the two biggest attacks on a person's ego.
In Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires, The Respect He Desperately Needs, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs tells the story of two friends who battled cancer and won. Both men soon found themselves unemployed. One said, "I was never depressed when dealing with cancer and possibly dying, but when I left my work, which was my identity, I went into a depression that was like nothing I had ever experienced before." Are there things worse than job loss? Absolutely; but being unemployed is one of the toughest spiritual battles you will ever face.
If you are looking for a job you may feel you've had your ego attacked by your former employer, by prospective employers who've chosen someone else over you, and by potential networking partners who've refused to help you. You may be experiencing financial difficulties, you may have lost contact with close friends you used to work with, you may have lost the structure in your day and your week and don't know what to do, and you may be facing the prospect of moving to a distant city in order to find a meaningful position. Your LCU score may be very high.
Who can relate to what I'm talking about here?
You've gone through a lot. You may go through more. When it rains, it pours. Problems compound. It seems there is no hope. Now your health is on the decline. Doctors have long recognized that stress can trigger a range of illnesses, from backache and headache to gastrointestinal problems, a weak immune system and heart attacks.
How much stress are you under? To access the test, click here. Go to "Products" and choose "A Recent Life Changes Stress Test." They charge $5; it used to be $1. No joke. I can show you my credit card bill! If you just want to read more, click here for an article about a similar study that involved Rahe and another psychiatrist.
Over a one-year period, a life change score of 450 or higher means not only that several life changes have occurred, but also that some of these changes had very high stress values. This high recent life change stress load is called a "life crisis." Two out of three people experiencing a life crisis will develop one or more illnesses, or have an accident, during the following year.
In January 2004, my score was 558. During the preceding six months I'd gotten divorced, bought a condo, lost my primary source of income and started a business. You may have guessed that I experienced financial difficulties. I also suffered a broken or dislocated rib when I slid head first into third base during a softball game; I got divorced in the morning (seven years ago last Saturday) and broke my rib the same evening. Since I was more than 100 points above 450, Dr. Rahe would say that I had a 75% chance of illness or injury in 2004. Praise the Lord I made it through in one piece; I did have a bike wreck that December, but was unhurt. My current life change score is more than 500 points lower.
By the way, life change events are not the only things that put stress on our minds, bodies and spirits. We need to take steps to guard our hearts from persistent, long-term stressors as well. I'll address this topic some other time.
I want you to learn three things from my experience:
1. You are in temporary state. As it was for me, the good news is that most people do not remain in a life crisis for more than a year or two. That's because subsequent illnesses and accidents demand your attention and you begin to cultivate important stress management and lifestyle coping capabilities. There is a purpose in your suffering. I am reminded of James' words, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." -- James 1:2-4
2. You have choices; be proactive. To decrease the length and severity of your temporary state, you must do something! Get out of bed and come to JobSeekers; I did in 2004 -- and I was the leader! I came to bless others, and I received a blessing myself. Being proactive gives you a sense of control. Even more important than JobSeekers is the decision you make about the spiritual perspective you will have on your job search and your journey through life. Jesus said, "Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." -- Matthew 6:33
3. You matter to God. No matter what happens to you in life, no matter what you do or what you've done in life, your heart matters to God. He loves you and he wants the best for you. He can take the shattered crystal and broken glass in your life and turn it into a beautiful stained glass window. God promises to work for the good of those who love him: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." -- Romans 8:28
Later in the same chapter Paul says, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? ... No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." -- Romans 8:35-39
In a devotional at JobSeekers last year, John Hobbs, Pastor of Care Counseling at Crossroads Church in Newnan, used Habakkuk 3:17-18: "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior."
Friends, God loves us even when the rain falls. God loves us even when the floods start rising. God loves us even when the storms come. In fact, we are washed by His cleansing water during the most difficult days of our lives. (Adapted from the lyrics of "Washed by the Water" by NEEDTOBREATHE.)
How are you going to respond to God's call during this significant life change event?
See you tomorrow at JobSeekers, where we are more than conquerors through him who loved us!
Tomorrow's meeting:
King Solomon, one of the wisest men ever, said, "Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisors they succeed." The more career coaching I do, the more important I see this as the cornerstone of an effective job campaign. People who have advisory teams get better results in less time. Come tomorrow and find out why.
Who: All are welcome; the topics are targeted for professionals, managers and executives.
What: JobSeekers is a nondenominational career ministry.
When: Friday mornings from 7:30 to 10:00 am.
Where: First Baptist Church in Peachtree City; 208 Willow Bend Road.
Why: We work with you to find a job, and we walk with you on your journey of faith.
Attire: Business casual.
Agenda: 7:30 coffee / 7:45 welcome and devotional / 8:10 introductions and announcements / 8:45 job search training module / 10:00 adjourn to the Atlanta Bread Company
We look forward to seeing you on Friday!
