I heard about a job vacancy that I really would love to get at an institution that I admire. Unfortunately, on paper I'm totally underqualified. They're looking for someone with big-time experience and a big name, but I'm a high school teacher and coach (plus my name is only 7 letters long - 14 if you include my first name).
If you can't get a job without experience, how do you get experience without a job?
A miracle could happen, and that's exactly what I need.

Freedom 3 years later
Today is a special anniversary for me. The faint of heart should read no further, though I suspect the word has already jumped off the screen at you.
I'm celebrating three years of sobriety and freedom from pornography and masturbation.
I never thought it would be possible, but this popular addiction controlled my life for years, and the internet certainly didn't help. Thanks to my incredibly patient wife for her constant prayers and support. Thanks to my band of brothers who prayed with me and talked with me about it. But the real credit goes to Jesus, who defeated sin and death, and whose power conquers every temptation.
I could not have done this alone, and Jesus is the crutch that made it possible.
