Know what you want.
Knowing what you want is the first step.
Getting what you want is the second step.
But knowing and getting what He wants for you is the ultimate step.
Many of us are stuck at getting what we want personally and hence we go through times of indifference and discouragement; and when that happens, we turn around and ask God "Why like that?" "I thought?..."..am feeling a little unsettled now because of the offer made a few days ago. In fact, I was feeling very restless today at work and at the end of all, I rebuked myself and told my flesh to shut up and continue mugging. Because the flesh is behaving in a very ungrateful manner; instead of focusing on glorifying God with excellent results at work, I wandered off track, thinking of how good life would be if I am earning that much and so on.
My career with HSBC is not an accident for sure. Because I prayed and after 1 interview, it came to past. Right now, the dilemma in front of me is whether has or is this season going to end soon? Only time can tell so I cannot afford to be unsettled now!. Besides, the other party hasn't contacted me as yet. Why am I getting so excited for what?.. :(
As you can see, I am still learning on how to be sensitive to His leading and in many ways, I am a work in progress. Period. As a matter of fact, because we are Christians and hence we cannot or we can no longer live or make decisions like a non-christian because every time we try to go off track, our internal HSPS (Holy Spirit Positioning System) will alert and prompt us isn't it?.
So yea of course I want to earn $X by year end and I know its possible.
But I need to pray and pray effectively.
On the flip side, realised that I have gained weight!. Sigh. Due to the lack of discipline and total abandonment of the jogging routine explains the shape I am in now. I have to get back to shape fast! Or face the consequences of being lethargic at work.
Extra Weight -> Being Lethargic at work -> Below Average Performance -> No promotion -> Cannot glorify His name.
See the linkage. Yup, so I will restart my jogging routine tonight! Hope my feet doesn't hurt before I run.
Take care peeps. :)
