The Grace Observed

They must think that I'm crazy.

I decided to switch job a while ago. But here's the problem. My new office is like a hundred miles away. Compare it to my old office, which is only 10 minutes from home, you can say I'm totally amazed, by the long journey, the early wake-up, the expensive transportation cost...

And because I'm freelancing, my income is not as much as my old job. But my expenses are hitting the red line. Since I have to return my old company's facilities, such as laptop, camera, etc, and I have to buy one for my own.

And my Dad is fixing the house (at this exact same time, can you imagine?!). I have to pay for that too.
And my transportation expense is much more than before. (I think I've said it twice...)
And the food here is 3 times more expensive.

I even think that I'm crazy.

But...

I know God is doing something amazing, when He sent me here, to this new office. I can't see it all now, but I see a glance of the 'big plan', and it made me happy already.

I met new people, new and fun people. Some of them are really funny. I can say for sure that I'm happy working here, because I got my joy back. My working appetite is getting better and better. Compared to my old job? It was devastating! I couldn't even laugh that time. Now, my friends at the old office envy me. I look so happy!

And because I'm freelancing, I don't have to go to the office everyday, just three days in a week. So I can spend half of each week continuing my study about God, and writing about Him. Also, I can finish my long-delayed book.

And my Dad, He keeps getting more and more money from our family, in so many ways I can't understand. So I don't need to worry about his well-being. It seems like it's God's way to tell me that I'm doing the right thing, and I'm going the right way. Even if I haven't seen the great things yet. Seeing the good little things are already a breath of fresh air. Praise God.

And today, I heard that my boss is preparing a new office. Well I pray that it will be closer to my home. Who knows? God is doing such an amazing change in my life. I know He has prepared everything too... He might move the office to be closer to His daughter, if He thinks it's good for her.

These first weeks, and months, it will be just the beginning. I know that God is preparing something great in a few months. I can feel it. That has fueled my spirit and gives me so much strength to keep moving forward.

He gives me this new job, in such a miraculous way. He will make it work.

All I need to do is to trust Him. And trust Him fully.
