Thank you for your prayers everyone – yesterday I was hired as a Cable Technician for Jacobs Technology. I’m pumped to working for such a well respected company. It’s an 8-5 which will give me evenings and weekends for my family and church. I’ve got new employee orientation on Monday.
Heres’ what to pray for next:
A security clearance. I’ll be working on the Arsenal so I’ll need a military security clearance. My birth certificate burned in a house fire when I was 13 years old – I’ve applied for a new one so please pray this all gets worked out and I can clearance.
For people to come to know Jesus. This is the real deal – please pray that God would use me working in the secular world to bring Jesus Christ to those people who need him the most.

Dude, congrats. I am sure this is a huge stress off your back.
congrats! Praying it all goes well for you.
Billy –
A few years ago I went to work for Dell computer for 5 1/2 years. It was an unbelievable mission field and the Lord opened door after door to build relationships and share Christ. He will do the very same for you! Stioll praying in Austin! Way to go on landing a great job!

Yay for you!!! Congrats on the great-sounding job. The workfield is a great place to make relationships with all sorts of people and to make a strong impact on them. Looking forward to hearing about it soon!
Congratulations to you. I have just been lurking around your blog for the past week or so. I’m a fellow bi-vocational music minister so I can relate. The work place is an excellent place to witness. So although you lost your paid position at church, God has opened a new door for you to minister in. He does work in mysterious ways!
Thank the Lord for answers prayers, praise your attitude to gain more souls for our Lord Jesus Christ !!!
Dude, congratulations! That was quick order! I’m glad that you got a job that sounds a little more solid then some others. Oh, by the way, you’ll find out how much you hate a little form called an SF-86. Ha ha…I’ve had to fill a couple of those out in my career!
