Interviews are always very nerve-racking because we don't know what's going to happen. What kind of questions will the interviewer ask me? Are they going to be friendly? Are they going to like me? I was filled with worry and every time I thought about an interview, my stomach would start churning.
I asked God to help me - and God answered.
This is what I realized. He has already set a path for me and you. He already knows how this interview will run and what the results will be. He already knows whether or not I will get this position and the reason why he knows, is because he CREATED this opportunity to start with. That's encouraging. Life, to me, is actually very easy. As long as I work hard and try my best, I know that I'm walking on the path that God has already set. I just need to keep walking - it's that simple!
If you are going through an interview in the near future, here are some tips my good friend Andrew shared with me for the morning of your interview:
1) Sing or play a song. I was singing "Beautiful Things" by Gungor this morning and it really helped me relax and think positively.
2) Questionnaire. This is when a good friend or family member helps you and asks you questions that you cannot get wrong. Questions like "what's your favourite colour" or "what do you like to eat?"; this helps build confidence and adds in a couple laughs just before the interview!
3) Pray and give it all to God. He will provide.
No matter what the results are for this interview, I trust that I'm walking on the path of God and there's nothing to be afraid of.
Happy Monday!
