The Lord is my Provider
I am here to announce... I've got a job!!!!!!
Yes, I have a job now. Finally. Really, finally. At last. And, without PR (permanent residency)! I've been waiting for soooo long. For 6 months! and now, I'm bursting to tell of God's goodness, of how He opened this door to me.
Last November and December, there was a prophecy from an uncle at church.. "Do not worry, God is going to open the door to you very soon. A job that you desire. A good job is waiting for you." Also, in another prophecy.. "God is going to surprise you".
Indeed, this has come to me like a surprise. I was having lunch at Joy's Garden one afternoon and the lady boss, whom I know briefly because I used to pick my cousins up from work, came to talk to me. She asked me whether I was still in uni. I replied that I had already graduated and was looking for work. Straightaway, she turned and took out a name card. She asked me to call the number on it. On the name card was the position of the person and it read "Financial Planner". I was like no, I'm not going to call. This certainly wasn't the job that I desired. Anything but financial planning. :)
But God's ways are indeed higher than our ways. This is one thing that God has been teaching me all this while, throughout the wait for the job. A couple of weeks before I went Joy Garden, I actually got rejected by Deloitte. I was so disappointed because I thought that was the job God planned in advance for me. But it turned out that it wasn't. Anyway, the lady boss of Joy Garden said "Call her". Those words seemed deeper than it normally would have been. It seemed that the Holy Spirit was actually the One saying to me "Call her". And before going back into the kitchen she said, "I don't know why I suddenly asked you about university etc.. maybe it is God's intervention". So i was like.. okay, I think I really should call her since God's ways are indeed higher than my ways and I shouldn't lean on my own understanding. If this really was the open door, then it will be the open door that no man can shut. And, it would be an accounting job as was prophesied.
So I applied for the job. I told the person I was looking for an accounting job. To my surprise, she said 'ok, just send your resume in to my boss and he'll get back to you'. So, it wasn't just a financial planning company! Interview was scheduled to be on Monday (yesterday).
On the day before the interview, at sunday church service, Pastor Benny had a word of knowledge.. "There are some of you who are looking for a job. God is going to open doors, and when God opens a door, no man can shut. Stretch out your hands and receive it, in the manner like you're receiving the job from God, from heaven". (something along those lines, I can't rmb what he said exactly) I felt a weight as I stretched out my hands. Cool stuff huh!
Yes, so now, I am no longer jobless. Finally :) and it is a job that I desire - I've been wanting to do tax accounting and it turned out to be a tax accounting company. I believe nothing is too late, nor too early.. but in all things, God has His perfect timing. and His perfect timing is really perfect as we wait upon Him.
The pay honestly, is really low. hahaha. I was so disappointed when I heard it. and throughout the interview, my mind was on it. =) But since this is the job God has prepared, then like what the uncle prophesied, "A good job is waiting for you".. so it must be a good job, and I believe it. God is going to work in this company in ways my mind cannot fathom. I am going to see His goodness revealed more and more in the days to come! More testimonies huh! :)
God is so real! Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths".
All glory to Jesus!
