Somehow, Finally.

It has been a whole 8 months now in KL and most things still don't make sense but I thank God for Him. Without whom I would have most probably drowned in sorrow (pathetic isn't it). I read in a book by John Bevere that if you find yourself in a season of being in the desert - seek to know God and not new purposes or direction.

That particular statement hit me like a truck and I realized that I had made 'purpose' or 'good things' the focal point of my attention - the signs of a first love lost. Bitterness set in, skepticism crept in and confusion made its home.

I made the choice to stop trying to make sense out of things and trusted in Him for a change. Yes, somehow we profess we trust God but do we really? I'll leave that to you to work it out in a practical sense :P I slowly began to remember how it was in the 'early' days - when I stuck bible verses all over my room, when I was so hungry for Him., when I was so eager to serve even out of inconvenience - I used to take a bus at 6am in the morning to get to church.

Call me slow but know the creator and you will know purpose. Took me awhile to internalize it. Things are getting much better now. Praise God for His provision and for going all out to get this particular one back. Undeserving but saved nonetheless.

Jer 29:1 - ''For I know the plans I have for you'', declares the Lord, '' plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future''. And this was said to the exiles of Jerusalem in Babylon. My circumstances are better still.

I'm yelling it out - I'm Christian :)

Another update - I've been accepted as a Risk Surveyor at a general insurer company called Royal And Sun Alliance. To start Nov 1st or 5th. Excited about the job. Will be getting a laptop and a digital camero too! For work purposes of course :)

Cheers and God bless
