God made me see things from a different perspective. From my previous
posts, perhaps you would realise that i've been worrying about my studies,
especially future job on whether it will be able to support my family.
Kallang was offered a permanent job. She was initially rejected by the
company when it was offering a contract job. But, PTL! When the company
require a perm staff, she was selected. Prayers work! Prayer is a tool to
communicate with Him. God planned such a good timing for her. Knowing
that she needs a perm job, He gave her a perm position at a place she wants
to be instead of a contract position. Who knows, once a perm position, more
things come falling in place. Shelter and family.
Even, for Gh, God has been faithful. Though i feel that he's having some bad
experiences from current job. But God provide him with interviews from the
industry he wanted to be in recently. And, something worth to think about it,
after around 2 months in his current job, (still feeling upset about his job
sometimes) his mentor and superior suddenly came to tell and encourage
him that they found him to be a good worker with high productivity. Why
would they do this so sudden and why would the interviews be here after
2 months of not looking for job?
I feel that maybe God is encouraging him through people
around him and He's definitely performing works in his life.
I began to think if the same thing will happen to me.
I believe that He will provide me with a job that suits my current needs.
Sometimes, i feel that He may bring us around 'the world', meaning that
what we want, we may not get it. He will provide us with what we need.
But eventually, we may get what we want. Guess it also helps us to appreciate
the job or situation that we are in.Though sometimes i feel low about things
happening around me, I trust that He will help me through.
For me, been trying to send out some resumes, but not much response from them.
Therefore, i'm quite disturbed by it. In addition, due to my ongoing exam, it has
added more stress to me. However, through both of them, God changed my
perceptions on keep worrying about my job. Should concentrate on my
exams first. Then about job. It's all about His Timing.
Recently, it's still news of China on our daily reports. My heart goes all out
for them. Like what pastor has shared, all of us are so blessed to be in
Singapore. Singapore being a good geographical location. However, we should
not take it for granted.
I see tears of heart pain, tears of touching moments.
Whenever i see photos of those kids who are trapped, died due to the earthquake,
I feel sad for them. Their parents must be so sad cause it's so hard to bring up
a child. All their efforts have gone down to drain. Imagine their moms conceiving
their child from one little small dot in the ultrasound scan to small foetus to babies
to young teens. Their children are part of their lives, yet are already gone from
them. The loss of one child is unbearable, and it's even more tough when so
many children and families are gone. Some people could be the only one alive
in their whole family(including those relatives). Some kids are so traumatized
that they cannot speak. Parents are so grieved over their loss of spouse,
children. However, through this incident, we can see love within people. Everybody
is trying to save one and one and one more. People sending food to those people
whose homeland has been destroyed. This is so wonderful. When people are
weak, they will be so touched that others are showing so much love to them.
This really encourage them.
God, i pray for the people in China. I pray that You place more people around
them to extend Your love to them. I pray that they will know the Truth, will understand
the meaning of real love. I pray that you heal their hearts and open their hearts to
you and let them know You'll be there.
We must really learn to appreciate people around us. You never know when would be
the last time you see them. Thank God for my wonderful parents. Up till today, I
still desire hugs from mummy. I know they still treat me like a little gal. Some people
find it hard to say 'i love u' to parents, find that it's mushy. But what if they never get
to hear it even if they are gone. By then, it may be too late. Recently, a friend's
dad passed away. Felt sad for her. If it happens to me, i know i will break down.
However, if they are with the Lord, i know that they are going to a better place.
God, thank you for providing me with a good family. I pray for my family. I pray that
You will change their way of thinkings through me or even through other Christian
friends around them I pray that more Christian friends to be placed in their lives.
I pray that You will open their hearts and draw attention to you. In Jesus name, Amen!
