Applying for Shadow

I applied to so many places today. I applied to four CVSs, three Costcos, and one Ralph's and I went into one of each to show my face and make my presence known to them. I left my house, located at around Roscoe and Sepulveda, and I walked down to Sherman Way in uncomfortably, good-looking shoes for about 1.5 miles. When I got to the CVS the manager said, "I'm sorry but we're not hiring at the moment." Needless to say, I was upset, but only temporarily because I was listening to JMac (John MacArthur) preaching about how to study the Bible and how to pray. It was amazingly insightful. That man is definitely anointed by God.
After my sad encounter with CVS' cruel manager, I waited for the bus at the corner of Sherman Way and Sepulveda so I can take the bus up to Victory Blvd. The bus came and I arrived there quickly. I walked into the Costco there and asked to see the hiring manager. The person I talked to, probably an associate, said that they weren't hiring. I was already upset about CVS shooting me down so I just left and didn't turn back. I had one more place to go: Ralph's. It was on the corner of Burbank and Van Nuys so I decided to walk from Costco so I can go to Burbank and take the bus to Van Nuys. But I found out that there is no bus from Sepulvda to Van Nuys on Burbank. So I called my mom and she had just gotten out of work and was by the area. So she told me to wait for her and I did but while I was waiting I saw something amazing!
The beautiful bike you see in this blog: her name is Shadow. She's astonishingly bonny and perfectly shaped. I think that Shadow will be name for the sequel for The Black Stallion.
So right now I'm applying at these jobs in hopes that Shadow will one day be mine. I may be getting a job soon because my conversation with the Ralph's manager went pretty well. I'm praying for grace now.
God, please bless me with this.

God bless you,
