Stuck

So I feel like I'm stuck in pit of quick sand. The more I try the more it feels like I'm seeking. I got no help in sight. I can't get a job anywhere. At this point I applied for over 110 different positions and have only had two interviews which have gone no where. I have given up on going for jobs that I want and have applied for anything that seems to be feasible. I'm not asking for much, just an entry level salary and decent hours.

I guess a bachelors degree just doesn't cut it anymore. I am either not qualified for the position or I look over qualified. I can't seem to get a call back on a stupid retail job. Needless to say I am beginning to get very discouraged and losing any bit of motivation I have.

One positive thing I am trying to get out of this is how I am defining myself. I see that in most peoples lives today the define themselves essentially on the jobs they have. Ask somebody who they are and most of the time they would reply with well I'm so and so I work for blah. I want to say, I'm Randy and I live for Christ. Christ is the only hope that I have right now. I have faith that he will provide me with any needs I have.
