All Things Will Work Out Good

This phrase just came to mind everytime I have those crazy doubts in my mind when I ponder about my career options.

After a long hiatus from MSN, I decided to go online only to face a decision which I ought to have already made up my mind about. I mean ok, since when MSN became such a channel for major dilemma headaches. Isn't it supposed to be a kind of brainless entertainment communication channel where people just catch up and talk crap. Well anyway, I was chatting with a friend from school and we were talking about deciding between which major we should embark our career on. Suddenly, we were talking adult stuff and it was over-whelming. It was all about prospects, pay packages and the like.

For me, it's Marketing and HR. FYI, HR pays far better than Marketing. But its not about the paycheck, its about what I'm good at and what I'm more suitable for. But, I'm not 100 percent certain about what I'm good at. Let's give an analogy to make explanation easier; I'm like this bystander idling at the bleachers observing and taking my own sweet time deciding which football team I want to support when the game is way past half-time and about to end........ damnit.

Haha, if only choosing a career option when I have one more term before graduating is as easy as choosing which football team to support.

So my next option, I'm going to consult the greatest and the most wonderful coach to give me answers. And that's God. Seriously, at this juncture, I do need His consult. And I trust in the hope that He will send friends, those who have graduated and those with experience to come my way to give me answers and advice. He has already put me in the best place to ask for consult, my cell group. 3 years ago, I asked myself why did God lead me to a cell group where all the members are at least 3 years older than me and I'm the only student in their midst. Come to think of it, all my career advisers are right there for me to ask.

Like, wow. Haha, if only I'm majoring in finance and accounting, cause half of them are working in banks and have worked in the big 4s. Nevertheless, I'm sure they have the knowledge and wisdom to provide me the advice I need.

All, I need to do is ask.

Matt 7:7-8

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."

First person He sent along to encourage me to trust in God, Miranda, a friend whom I got to know during my summer trip to Vancouver. And I have not talked to her in ages and out of the blue, she just msned me. And its funny. The reason she came to talk to me - she was having some dilemma thingy as well. And I was having my own issues.

amazing!

And its funny in an amazing way. The reason she came to talk to me online - she was having some dilemma issue as well. And I have my own issues to handle. As we said our goodbyes online, we left with the same conclusion. Trust in God, you will never go wrong. We cannot have control over everything. When we think we do have ultimate control, that's when we realise its really tiring and worthless to devote much of our time worrying about the "what ifs". When I become my insecure self, God gave countless reasons to make me feel secure once again.


Be blessed during this festive season!
