I was just ironing my shirt and pants for tomorrow. I could hear my clothes say to me "welcome back to the working world". It seemed like yesterday when I first gave up my career to do 1 year of Bible College, and now I am back starting off again and hoping to get my career back into line again. Everything still seems like a dream. I remember first accepting this job as a "something in the bush" and was hoping and praying for a job in Adelaide. But I did pray for God's will to be done. So today when I met up with my new boss in Singapore when he spoke those two big words "Welcom Onboard!!", reality hit. I am actually going to be an employer Computer Science Corporation, a job I was holding off as much as I could, no matter how much obstacle I put before them, they still "layan" me. There has to be a reason why God still kept this door open after all the amount of "put off" I did. After talking to my boss today, I suddenly felt the absolute peace of God that this is the right path for this season. I've been praying for this peace for a long time and finally I felt it today.
I am now half excited and half anxious. Excited that I am going back to work, going back to a career (I hope!!) and anxious at the same time.. fearing I'll end up like my ex colleague Hobes the don't know anything at all, anxious that my new colleagues won't like me but most of all fearful that I can't perform. I have to say too that my biggest fear is that I don't show a difference after bible school. One of the reason I went to bible college is to to improve me as a person and to let God mold me to what He wants me to be and I just hope all that won't go to waste.
Ironically, I'll be reporting to a lady boss, AGAIN!!! Seems like my whole working life has been reporting to ladies, first there was Isabel Yap, than Indy and now Evenjonly. What is it what I attract lady bosses... if I stayed in YC, my pastor would have been Rose, that would have really been a great.. my whole life being "looked after" by ladies. Now, can you classify that ladies' man or the man's ladies?
So when I open my eyes tomorrow morning, it won't just be a new day for me but a new chapter ready to unfold. Boy am I excited??
