I GOT A JOB!!!!And not JUST a job, but a GOOD job!! And all because God helped me!! Well let me share the whole story. On monday i was interviewed for the position as IT Trainer. It's a small company with about 4 other trainers and the boss told me that the working hours will be tough. If i go in he will have to give me more classes to take care of. He calls it stretching me and he does that to new comers. Rougly for each week i'll have to teach 4 days(9-6) and 3 nights(7-10) and probably sundays too_Oh well, personally i find that unnecessary and illogical. If he wants to stretch someone he should do it to those experienced trainers since they can handle it better. And doing it to a new comer is no good since he just entered the company and is still in the transition phase. Well, basically that's the only bad thing about the IT Trainer job. However, i was interested in the benefits of being a trainer. He said that not only do i teach, but i also get to learn. And of course teachers get to know their materials better and that's a big plus for a future career. Besides me liking teaching, i also like the idea of getting more prepared for my next job after being an IT Trainer. The last thing that he asked me was pay. My expected salary i indicated was 2-2.5k. And he asked whether it's fine if he gives me 2k. I just said it's ok and come to think of it, i think he tried to get the best of me with minimal cost. Oh well. Anyway i went back home having a good feeling about getting this job but the only problem was whether i could cope. So i prayed to God saying that if this is the job for me that he will give it to me otherwise do something!!!

On wednesday i got a call from a company called Yellow Cube. He told me about the job scope but i really wasn't that keen on it but said that i wanted to find out more. Anyway he wanted to interview me the next day so i went at 930am. Throughout the 1 hour interview i got to know more about the company and the boss(interviewer) was very friendly too. He said the company culture is friendly and that there are no politics. During lunch they also go out together and i love that!! I mean i love the fact that it's a homely atmosphere. And i mentioned that i'm a people person so i would love interaction! Furthermore, he's willing to give me my expected pay of 2.2k!!! Anyway, in the first part of the interview he said that i'll be one of the ones shortlisted. I was happy after hearing that. And close to the end of the interview he said that i had a HIGH CHANCE of getting in. With that i was even happier!! hahha...but he said provided that the next two candidates don't do better than me..hahah.well of course, he wants the best and that's understandable. So he said if i'm accepted he will call me tonight.

At 5pm, i met Andy for bible study. Halfway through i got a call from yellow cube.i was skeptical at his purpose of calling me at first until he congratulated me!! I got accepted!!!! WOOOOWOWOWOWOWOOWOWOWOWO!!!! So that's the first step to my future. I love it and i thank God for it. He has indeed worked another miracle for me. Oh ya, i forgot to say. Just 2 hours after that call, i got a call from the IT Trainer company. They said they wanted me to go down to do a presentation. Inside me i was saying "TOO BAD SUCKER!!!!"(they just wanted to pay me 2k) but of course i didn't say that. I just said that i already had a job and she said it's ok bye. Oh well..the miracle is God planned the whole thing!!!! Can you see!!??!!?!?! Open your eyes!! Are you blind?!?!?!!?!? God is in control of our future!!!

"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 hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11


THIS is the kind of God that i submit to. Which God do you submit to?

Praise the Lord!!!!!! I have a new job.

It was a great answer to prayer as my current job ended on the 30 june 2005. It was with a christian charity but they had been very difficult with me, even saying i could not go to the interview.

My interview was on the day before 29th. I had started to get worried as i had not heard anything from all these applications.

This was my first ever interview. Butterflies galore! but i just prayed in the spirit, praying it out. The day of the interview i was so confident it was unbelievable and i was ready for anything.

I felt it went well and they would let me know by the friday 1 july.
However 6 hours later i received a call to say that they were offering me the job.

How great is that. I was so overwhelmed.

So now i can go out of one and straight into another.:amen:

More money as well.

The lord provides and has great plans for us.

Amen

God IS good!
