It looks like I'm going to be offered a job on Friday morning. The woman told me she would have hired me today, except that I need to make more than what her initial offer is, and she needs to do some checking on the finances and interview a couple more people before she makes a decision.
The trouble is this - it would not be an office job. It would have somewhat limited people interaction, but it would be something I would be skilled at doing, and could possibly enjoy doing for a while. I would get to work with hundreds of books, sorting and so on, on a daily basis. It would also pay a dollar an hour less than what I've been using as my minimum hourly wage in the job search. That's approximately $2000 less/year. After three months I'd have some pretty good benefits as well.
I don't know how to make the decision... It's not perfect, but nothing is, and nothing is seeming to pan out at the moment. I really do need to find a job soon, but I don't want to just jump at the first one that's offered to me... How do you know if God is providing something or not? How does it become clear when He is leading? And how do you decide if you can live on a certain wage when you are guesstimating what expenses like rent, car insurance, gas, utilities and so on will be?
