v24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
v25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.
v26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
I know I'm not as righteous as Job in the Old Testament, but I do experience some trials recently. My Vice Principal, my reporting officer and me had a work conference yesterday. My VP feedback to me that she is not going to recommend me for my NIE traning as my spoken English is not up to standard. I need to submit my letter of resignation before she votes me out.
I woke up at 3.30 am this morning and start to search for comfort from the scriptures. So I read the Book of Job in Old Testament. I truely hope that I can have such strong courage, faith and trust on my Saviour as the prophet Job has. He said
v15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.
v16 He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.
At lease, I still trust God that all experiences that he granted me are for my good. I know he still listens to my prayer and he still guides me through his Holy Scriptures and his prophets. I know we are blessed to have local leaders here to guide us. They are like the three good friends of Job who counsel him when he was mourned and about to curse God.
We are going to have great stake conference in this weekend. May we come with preparation to receive our personal revelation to guide us in our life.
