THE POWER OF GOD

Have u ever felt like things are at a standstill.

The devil tries to make us children of God feel rejected by our heavenly father

Before anything great, we go through trial times but he never departs from us.

FAITH IS KEY.

Always remember that our heavenly father is.....

EVER KNOWING.....Knows all our concerns

EVER PRESENT........Is everywhere we are

Faithful...................And will never depart from us

Compassionate..........Wants to forgive and will forgive all our sins as long as we are genuinely repentant of them.

The king of all kings.....He is greater than any problems, distress, pressure, anger, failure or anything else the devil tries to inflict in our heads

SO PEOPLE BELIEVE IN THE POWER & THE WORD AND HE WILL SEE YOU THROUGH.

Life is such a journey

Hi People!!

Gosh where do I start from. First of all I must begin by saying God is Good and he definitely always has a plan for all of us..if only we listen and believe when he calls.

Anyway to go straight to the point, what I didn't mention in my last post was that I was so close to leaving my job at that time but really didnt want to leave as I felt like I would be a LOOSER giving in to my bosses mean ways so I prayed to God that although I want to leave, I would love if they pulled a redundancy stunt and gave me some good offer so I never get to see her MEAN FACE again....Guess what.....God answered and although it was a very sad process, I was placed in a situation of leave or get fired and was offered not just 4wks notice pay (which by the way was my notice period) but 13 WKS (3 Months) pay...can u guys just imagine what God is doing for me.

Prior to the redundancy meeting, I attended a career conference at church and was inspired to start thinking of a business idea and God has also been faithful in that angle...Lemme just say, I have always been clueless when it comes to an idea but God has opened all arenas for me...

Although I haven't really started this new venture (Lets just say its in the initiation/Development stage of the project) Guys please support and watch out as I shall be blogging about this in the near future.

Do you know what? sometimes in life, a situation can look so bad that a future is shadowed with doubt/fear/oppression....people dont fret for God sees it before you do and he knows how much we can take and what is best so although some might say "I dont know what im onto, I have never believed this much in my GOD cuz i know he definitely is watching over me.

May God bring ideas to you my reader as he has to me and continue to strenthen ur thinking

Last note, read a book by Richard Kiyosaki -Rich dads guide to investing...if u dont have it, get it and a line that stands out and always screams in my head is ...(In my own words- to be successful and rich, individuals need to move away from the security of a paycheck) which is a normal persons initial frame of mind.

God bless you. Please look out as I shall be needing some support in the near future.

OVERDUE

Dear people, how have you all been.

You know what, I am sooo sorry I havent blogged in a while. No excuses, I have intended to but to be honest I have been facing very trying times of late.

I have recently given my life fully to Christ and I must say its the best decision I ever made but as we all know, trials and temptations will always come which we have to go through but come out in one PIECE as we have a greater source of energy.

As my blog was created to testify the wondrous mercies of God in a real world, I will try to update more often.

I believe, I know, I declare, I am thankful, I give thanks as something GREAT is going to be testified soon.

In the meantime, please remember me in your prayers and leave comments if you so desire as those encourage me...just knowing people out there believe like i do.

I'll be back soon.

New Job

New role, new people, new city, better opportunities, more cash in my pocket (more tax as well but we thank God lol)

In my first week at my new job, I went to the loo and almost put my head on the floor thanking God. I got a job in a top retailer working with 3 very intelligent young ladies......wow when i leave in 2009, I will be a top totter, i said to myself...as i must say I like to dream/plan ahead.

So my strategy is: Say what I want, work towards it, pray to God and ask for guidance....if its not for me, he notifies me on time so i prepare for plan B.

Not going into a very long story here but basically, after about 6 months in this role, i found that i was not getting on with my boss. Now she's the sort of person that likes every i dotted, t's crossed and will kill u if u dont sort of thing......

Initially, I thought she was doing me a favour but it all got toooo much when we started clashing.

As a professional, I knew I owed it to my profession to never ever no matter what be confrontational at work but definitely defend myself but own up to mistakes....(although I heard on the apprentice tonight, the successful ones pass on the blame.....) is this true????

Back to the topic at hand, I started to feel like maybe just maybe she didnt like me. I dont know if anyone can relate to being the only ethnic minority person in your team and sometimes feeling no matter how much of an achiever you are, that cards are not always played fairly......

To cut the story short, thats where I am currently at. I am a very quick decision maker but never without the backing of God.....

But this one is way higher than me so I wait on the Lord....I now want to focus on what i want. I know where I want to be, I am prepared to be apprenticised for some yrs to grow and develop but I now want to be 100% satisfied in my job....Dont say its not possible cuz its very possible for God to do..He makes the impossible POSSIBLE.

So I now want to leave my permanent employment and maybe taste the waters abit....focus on my studies (prof. qual.), go for a few contract positions and then after settle on what i really want.

I will keep updating on my decision...will i stick to this or chicken out again.

Who Knows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a blessed wk.

Overdue Update

Dear Readers,

I am ever so sorry I have been m.i.a.....

Right where did i stop last time. I RESIGNED!!!! Thanks be to God. No more mundane tasks, demotivating and non-value adding things.

Ooh well, I am a strong believer in God although i must confess sometimes my faith goes downhill. I resigned from my 1st proper job in July believing in God that after my 3 months notice period (dat one is another story) I would have secured a job. This is not lottery but believe I got a job in the 1st week of August and they were prepared to wait till october....Is God a miraculous God or what??????????

1st Job

This place was such a big org that it scared me a bit at first cuz as bold as i may seem to some, I am such an introvert sometimes.

On my 1st day, I met a fellow grad and suddenly felt at home as she was oriental so i felt like i had a fellow "minority" there. A couple of months later, an asian chick joined and that was it..we were complete....the 3 musketeers".

I knew in my mind of minds that I wouldnt be there for long, 2 yrs...maybe worse case scenario 1.5yrs :) hmmm "chick i said to myself, why jump the gun, wait for God to decide if you stay up to 3 mths after the probation lol.

The job became so mundane, I wasnt moving forward and decided to take the leap and apply for a diff position in the same company after about 9mths or so.

I will never forget that day, as a matter of fact it was actually quite fun...I had a very interactive panel interview, in my sharp linen suit or at least I thought i looked sharp :), I blapped once again my sensible nonsense in a strategic manner.

I left the interview believing God will do the rest as I had to fly away to the states the next week. The HR lady gave me the impression that I would get a phone call if I was successful... mid week, the phone rings.....wat ooh my God, excitement, feet shaking...mind you it was like 4am in the states cuz of the time diff.........which made me think i had this on lock down...

Before I forget, after the interview .......while still at work, my fone rang. It was the HR lady still trying to find out more by asking more questions and saying that they were really impressed with me.

I am sure you are saying by now "get to the point, you got the job" right?? well I didn't....Y didn't I, i wondered after all that crap....

Being the fighter that I am, I requested for feedback from the guy on return only for him to say he enquired about me and got the impression that i present myself as "agressive" to many....What do i do my dear readers if I am a strong, focused, determined black woman in a new world....If you met me in person, its so contrary to the agressive model they created. A

Anyway, I learnt..the trait they see as agressive is what the good lord God has instilled in me for a reason and that purpose shall come to pass in Jesus name. So I got tired of trying aimlessly and resigned even before getting a job....Now is that believing or what?

My Humble Beginning

I remember as a kid walking to school with my older brother, not priviledged to have a car take us to school like most kids but now God has blessed me and thats now a story of the past(a memory) or is it?????????

Life back then was a task for my brothers and sisters and as i am the youngest, I have always learnt to be tough and face up to anything in life. Anyhoo, lets get back to today.

Lets forward about 10yrs to today. I am an analyst in a top retailer here in the uk studying for a professional qualification. To most, it might seem like i have a good life which I am not saying I dont and thank God for as we have to give thanks for everything to our author and finisher.

The issue I face is not being able to hold down my job. I have asked myself; "am I to blame?", is this not my destiny? have I upset God.

A slight introduction, I graduated with a good degree some years back. I remember leaving everything and going on a well deserved holiday. I knew I wouldn't struggle to find a job as I am one of those people that can sell an expired cake and make it look like it tastes nice :) when I know it doesnt. Summary, I talk very good sensible nonsense which helps me get through all those interrogative prison talks they now call interviews.

Naive as I was, I was offered a decent salary then in the region of early 20s and as a youngster living at home, i thought to myself u must be stupid to reject this pay. Now what didnt struck me was that I should have considered more of the culture, progression, will i fit in as this was supposedly to be a career and not just a job (Difference being is a job pays bills, a career is ur all and all). There I was in a recognised telecomms company. Did I want to be there? I still ask myself.

Stay tuned for how I got on in this corporation and next steps in my journey to success.

God Bless

Devil is a liar

Hi people!!



I don't know if anyone will ever read this blog but my hope is that someone will. So a lil background of this journal.



I am a follower of Christ who is just living by, still a sinner, trying to be more spiritual but still enjoy life partying et al (when i get to do that lol i trip) but i am just human like everyone else.



I decided to use this forum to aire my frustration/anger whenever I feel down.



This is typically a journal of my journey to success and every substantial milestone i cross in life will be journaled.
