I've recently resigned from work where I've been employed from more than 6 years. It was difficult at first but the Lord has realy planned everything out for me. Amazingly, my boss let me off really well. I will miss the people and the work itself but definitely not the pay. I've had some personal bouts with our finances especially after my youngest was born. And with my past work, our expenses and income just don't seem to meet. Apart from this, there were many other things that made me decide to finally move on.
But all that is now in the past. As a human, I still have some regrets. Regret that it took me so long to move on and let go. Regret that I have been so gullible But as a Christian, I believe that all of these happened for a reason. During my stay there, I've been able to lead at least 10 people towards accepting Christ as their Lord and saviour when I conducted the "End of Times" series in the office. My co-workers were also witnesses to my tranformation from an angry and arrogant tyrant to God's lowly servant. Indeed, no work of God has been in vain.
As I pray hard for the Lord to lead me towards greener pastures, He let me see my affliction as a preparation for greater and better things for me and my family.
And alas, the Lord is great and He truly is faithful to those who trust in Him alone. He blessed me with a new job and a potentially fulfilling one at that. And more importantly, He presented an opportunity for me to work for Him. Suprisingly, 2 of my batchmates were also churchworkers of CCF and one of them needed help for a research she was doing for the church.
Isn't it amazing how the Lord works? To this day, He continues to guard my heart despite the painful attrition that I had to endure during my last months of stay in my previous company. He calmed me down and told me every single time to be still and have faith. I surrendered, I believed and thus I persevered. And Through Him indeed nothing is ever impossible. Amen
