God’s plan

Many people have been asking me about my future in the working world. I hesitate to give definite answers, because there aren’t any yet. There are possibilities, but I do not wish to speak about them at this point in time.
As a Christian, I believe that God has a plan for each one of us. It may not be clear to us, but it is clear to Him, and what we want may not always come easy. Neither do we always know what is best for ourselves.
For myself, I do not pin my expectations to any sort of job, in any organisation. If I get the position I want, that’s great; if I don’t, well, failures make me a stronger person, and maybe I was meant to find something more suitable for myself – that may, in the big picture of things, also benefit other people.
That’s all for now.

    Nobody ever said it was going to be easy, but this time I’m really feeling the brunt of it. Giving testimony and being asked to help at Alpha just upped the pressure – don’t think I’m any ‘better’ than any one of you, because I still have my ‘down’ moments and I’m experiencing one right…

    This Christmas, three of my friends encountered very different life-changing experiences. First, just before Christmas Day, I was elated to hear that a close friend of mine was going to become a mother. My longstanding prayers for blessings have become that of thanksgiving, and now I can only ask for the pregnancy to be uneventful,…

  • Finally, a new Vicar

    We’ve been waiting for over a year for a new, full-time Vicar. The day was today. I was glad to see Rev Philip Sinden in person, because he wasn’t the big burly Australian I imagined him to be, but tall but slender with a most humble demeanor. Even without knowing him, a strong feeling welled…

  • Thank you, God

    Those who’ve seen me on MSN lately should know what’s been on my lips – Thank you God. He lifted me out of the darkness over two years ago and gently guided me back to what I like doing best. He put me with the right people. He made me wait, to learn patience. Sometimes…

  • Baptism notice

    Some of you have seen me through my darkest moments, when I rejected the Light, thinking I could carve out my own destiny. Temptation haunted me, causing my life to spiral out of control. But I now know the true path, and I trust in my Shepherd to guide me through the Valley of Darkness….

  1. Amen, sistah.
    Sometimes all of that is easier said than done, though. I don’t know why it is always so difficult to let go.

  2. Hey Venessa
    I have been wanting to contact you for a long time but couldn’t find the time to do so. Mind emailing me so that I can obtain your email address and ask you some questions?
    Thanks 🙂
