About

R. A. Gómez
Hello, ​I am a young Hispanic male in his mid-forties who strives to make a difference through work and faith-based servitude.
Picture

Additionally, I serve others through one-to-one or small group level instruction in diverse fields. Furthermore, I hold a diversity of skills that exceed my academic endeavors. 

Non-Professional Roles
My roles begin with identifying as a Disciple of Yeshua (Jesus).  Secondly, I identify as a person of immediate family and close friends.  Thirdly, I identify as a childhood cancer survivor.  Fourthly, I identify as a servant to people (I assist them with physical, cognitive and behavioral, and spiritual needs as the Holy Spirit leads me to do so). Fifthly, I identify with the roles of a handyman (household and auto), a musician (acoustic guitar and ram's horn as well as a retired trumpet player), a painter (acrylics), and a writer (letters, blog postings, short-studies on spiritual passages or topics). Finally, I identify as a counselor (counsel people through a faith-based orientation as the Holy Spirit leads me to do so).

Present Occupation
I am actively searching for another part-time or full-time job position within the area of my experience and/or education.  I have become a person of many skills and abilities, yet I need a place of employment in which to both exercise and further develop them. I have a preference for a job that presents a balance of both independent-work and collaborative-work as well as customer engagement.
Pressing On
For the time being, I perceive that I have done many of the things for which I held a desire in my heart to do within my lifetime.  Although I do embrace some aspirations for my future, I do not claim probable remorse if they do not come to pass.   

​For the time being, I live day by day. I do what I have to do so that I may remain whole. It is my desire that my present circumstances would be different, but they are what they are now.

Closure
I am not perfect, but I do strive for perfection through daily refinement by Yeshua. Without Him, I would be physically, psychologically, and spiritually dead. Throughout the years, I have had differences with Yeshua and even wrestled with Him at the spiritual level. In the end, Yeshua won over my heart and I surrendered my life to Him.  My life has never been the same. Although it has been a challenge to live this new life, one thing has remained true and constant throughout the perils of time; Yeshua has always remained with me. I am grateful to Him.
