God's Blessings

Life has so many surprises. Surprises are sometimes good and sometimes bad. But today's surprise ( May 09, 2013) is not only good but a great one. Working in a semiconductor company for almost 6 years is quite a challenging job. There are so many highs and lows that go with the business situation  which either UP or DOWN (being FLAT means just idle). When a business is not making  profit for several quarters or even years, the business is not in good shape. And that is what is happening in my company now.

Few announcements has been relayed to us from the top management that our company is closing in the 3rd quarter this year. But as employees in the Philippines our future and what will happen to us in the next 2 quarters is very blurry. Questions like "Does the mother company will hire us if our company closes?" or "Does the company will give as separation package in the case that we will not be absorbed by the parent company?". As a man who has a dream to go abroad and save for my dream to become a Chef, I really want that the company will give me the separation package. And the question for that separation package has just been answered this morning.

Being the eldest in my family, I have the responsibility to help and support my younger siblings' college education. If I resign in my current company for abroad I will not receive any amount and that is my problem - money to finance them. Today's announcement is an answered prayer because I will be receiving the separation package. This is a blessing from God at the very perfect time.  Now I don't have to worry any more where to get the money which will I need for my siblings when I leave for work abroad. God has provided for it.


One step at a time by God's grace and guidance I will be reaching my dream to be a Chef. And I believe that He is working with me. Actually HE is the source of everything..my finances, my time, my passion, my dream and my life.

Thank you so much GOD. In Jesus name. Amen.

The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, without painful toil for it. Proverbs 10:22 (NIV)
