Come as you are

Come out of sadness, from wherever you've been
Come brokenhearted, let rescue begin
Earth has no sorrow heaven can't heal
Come as you are

These lyrics stood out the most whenever I take a moment to listen to this beautiful song, written by David Crowder and his amazing band. Had the most amazing privilege to take a picture with him the last time he came to my church, together with Chris Tomlin and Pastor Louie Giglio. Super humble fella, super cool too. Haha. 

So today marked a brand new week! We are actually in NOVEMBER already! WOW. Didn't we just start January like... awhile ago? Hah time really flies. Seriously. I can hardly remember a year where I feel like time flew this fast past me. (I said this every year haha) Oh wells.

Today I learn a very important lesson, all over again. I learn that life is really all about taking the moment, and cherishing the NOW that we are in. Just like how God tell us in the bible, to not worry about the future and stuff. Yeah. It dawned upon me today. 

There I was in the reception today, because the receptionist is on leave. There's this new female employee, that the bank hired to cover the recept role and stuff like that. But since she's really new (1 week long), so yeah. Gotta take some time I guess.

Suddenly it hit me that I have only 2 months life in the contract! Like... What??? Haha. So fast. I feel like I've only begin to really work WORK, if you know what I mean. No wonder pastor always say to give a job a year or two, because you really only start to work WORK after a year! It's so true la oh my. :\

So at work today, as usual, alot of things had to be done. The colleague that I'm working with, well... Idk. Sometimes he just has the weirdest and strangest mindset. It's like he has his own "mood". On good days, he can be nice. On not so good days, he's just pure nasty and sarcastic? Hah. I don't know man. Sometimes I really wonder what's on his mind. Sometimes.

So the new female employee too. The vibe that I'm getting from her is that, sometimes I feel like I'm trying too hard? Trying too hard to interact and to assist her at work. But I am just like that; I like to help fellow colleagues and if I can, I would. Not that she's not appreciative and all, but you know, given in an environment where people talk shit and stuff like that all the time, one gotta be wary? 

Just today a colleague tried to be funny and say something really sarcastic and all. I don't know what's the consequences gonna be, but it sure make things awkward between the new female employee and me. So I tried to joke it off and all, but I feel that the damage has already been done kinda thing, you know?

Then GOD spoke me right there and then. "You don't need to be worried of anything, even in situations like this. You've got Me. My Favour. My Grace. My Influence. Fear not, son."

Haha to be honest, it didn't really make me feel better. But God works in way we can never comprehend I suppose. It did gradually made me feel better, but you know, the devil always tries too hard to be funny. But at that end of the day, I know God > devil. That's all that matters man.

So here I am now, still feeling a lil sian and affected by all the "issues" at work today. But what can I do now, but trust God? What can I do now but rely upon His Grace and Favour?

"Exactly son, that's exactly what I want you to do".

Thank you DaddyGod. Thank you.
