When sorrows come and hope seems gone
You’re the Rock I rest upon
When waters rise and I can’t breathe
You’re the love that rescues me
Out of the darkness
I lift up my eyes
Unto the hills
I feel my faith rise
Chorus
Maker of heaven, giver of life
You are my strength, my song in the night
My refuge, my shelter
Now and forevermore
My help comes from the Lord
When I’m broken, scarred by sin
Death gives way to life again
When I suffer, when I’m bound
In You I’m free, in You I’m found
Out of the darkness
I lift up my eyes
Unto the hills
I feel my faith rise
Chorus
Maker of heaven, giver of life
You are my strength
You’re my refuge
Now and forevermore
Chorus
My help comes from the Lord
My help comes from the Lord
I love CCM because they are always uplifting and positive. Late July, right after my birthday, God gave me a big surprise! It was a promotion which also comes with bigger and heavier responsibility.
No one expected this incident to happen the way it did. Someone left the company with less than 10 days notice and 10 days are definitely not enough time to transfer all the responsibility and knowledge to another person. I am here in Asia and the person in Americas region. In fact, before I get the surprise another team of a few others were doing all the "ground work".
In desperation, the manager was looking for a person to take over as it is a high risk job. So with all that is happening, my name came up as they felt that I am able to do the job and I have some related knowledge that would help the transition.
As I get deeper into the role, I realize that the job will be total opposite of what I was previously doing. It is a bigger business, dealing with more people in a wider network. I know that I cannot do this alone without my colleagues help, and above all God's help. The new job is more demanding. Demands more of my time, more patience to learn and pick up bits and pieces of things that are all scatterred around.
It has been 3 weeks since I take on this new role. First week was the quarter close and I was sick. Somehow God preserved me and I was able to work night shift for 4 or 5 days, and to adjust back to normal routine. It was difficult, but we did it. I knew that if this promotion comes from God, He will guide me through it. He helped me to rely fully on Him and also helped me to have more faith and trust in Him. I know I can count on my Almighty God because He is living, He is real and He loves me.
Thank you, my Sweet Jesus for helping me go through this. I will do my best so that when men see this, they will acknowledge that You are the One who is to be glorified. Help me to work hard not for men, but for You!.
