I love my job ^.^

Sun May 10, 2009, 7:34 PM
Okay, so I work at a local amusement park as the costumed characters in the kids section (which is peanuts themed so I get to be Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Sally, Lucy, Linus... the whole peanuts gang! ^.^)

Anyhoo, I totally love my job. I get to hug kids all day. It rocks.

The other day at work, on my break I walked up to the employee cafeteria. once I got my food I sat down, prayed and began to eat (having only about 10 minutes to eat because it takes so long to walk up to the cafeteria from camp snoopy :/). A guy came and asked if I would mind if he sat at the same table as I was. (It was pretty crowded in there) I told him that I didn't mind at all.

Inside, I mentally slapped myself. I had left my Bible in the back room at Camp Snoopy.

So, as usual, I started a conversation, thinking to myself; "God, this really isn't a good time. I've got like ten minutes to eat, and I doubt I could eat this all even without talking to this guy!!" Obviously, God has different timing than I do.

As the conversation went on, we eventually were talking about what we were planning to do after we graduated. I told him that I wanted to go to a Bible school and be a pastor of some sort. --Inner Suz: BOO-YEAH!!! chance to bring up Jesus!!-- So I popped the question casually. "What do you believe in?" A little uncomfortable he just said: "oh, uhh... I'm a Christian."

Y,know? Like 80% of Americans claim to be Christians. Hahaha. ha. Look at America right now. If that many people were actually following Jesus with everything inside of them, the world would be completely different. That's just a side note.

Anyhoo, back to this conversation. So I said; "Awesome! Jesus is the best. I think it's totally cool that God wants to actually have a personal relationship with us, instead of just being some guy up in heaven somewhere that we don't really know."
"Yeah"
And then he was texting and I continued to eat my food.

Not much really happened, and I don't know anything about that guy's life. But I hope I planted a seed. His name tag said his name was Jeremy I think. I'll be praying for him. God's got amazing things planned for him, as he does for all of my co-workers of which I hope I get a change to share Jesus with.

Change a life - bring up Jesus in your next conversation.

    Cause nobody wants
    to be the last one there.
    Cause everyone wants
    to feel like someone cares.
    Someone to love with
    my life in their hands.
