A God-Crafted Job Even In Difficult Times
My family relocated for over a year when my husband was posted overseas. This meant that I had to take a break from the company that I was working at. The company was gracious to grant me a sabbatical.
However, upon my return, I was informed that I would have to leave the company as my role was no longer available. I was given a monetary package even though I had not contributed to the company at all over the past year.
I had been in contact with a boss I had previously worked for who had just moved on to another company. When he heard that I was on the lookout for a new job, he started to work on crafting a position for me in his company. Over the subsequent months, he continually updated me on the progress.
I knew that these things take time, but I did not expect it to be so long. As the months passed, I started to question God, and doubts crept in my mind as to whether I the job would happen or not.
There were many around me that told me to start looking for other options, and not to expect too much since I’d been out of the workforce for a year, especially during this season where many are losing jobs. However, deep down inside of me, there was a still, small voice of assurance from the Lord to wait.
The breakthrough finally came just as the circuit breaker measures eased further, when my ex-boss called me and offered me the role he had crafted with me in mind. A great sense of God’s love came upon me, and I felt so favoured by the Lord. I did not have to go through any interviews for it, and it was also a double promotion with an increment that super exceeded my expectations! God restored my career in this Year of Time and Space!
This was truly God’s unmerited favour on me as I did not have to do anything at all. He knows the perfect timing, and even in this season, He has provided me a way!
