God

I stand in awe of this invisible God whom I know since 8 years ago...
You never fail to amaze me that I know and I know that You are the Lord.

He allowed things to get to the worst, before a deliverance, to show that this is none other than God..

This year has been an exciting year till date with every day being a walk of faith.
The best thing that I can ever have this year, a big present from God, is a man who loves me. Thank God for the beginining of something new.. something totally unexpected and magical. He gave me beauty for ashes..

Hmm.. what about this big present..
Let me see...
He is kind, compassionate, patient, has a big emotional capacity, full of interesting ideas, loving, caring, sensitive..... and the list goes on and on... and He loves God =) He makes time for me even when he is packed to the brim with endless datelines to meet.. He hears me not just verbally but non verbal expressions.

With him, the rougher road looks easier to walk..
Thank God for this gift.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Work has never been more exciting than this when I decided to pick up the challenge to venture into an unknown ground. The walk of faith is treading into the unknown grounds and to trust God. Embracing this idea, SH strongly encourage me to walk this walk of faith. Ever since the start of the year, was a series of sowing and sowing and endless sowing... To be honest, I was very discouraged especially in the month of March and April as in the 20 over days of the month I always hit the record bottom sales in the team...there was seemingly no harvest. In the years of a sales person, I never once face a situation like this before.. Close to zero sales... I really felt like giving up, seeing the rest doing so well..

Thank God that He always place intercessors around like Pst Glor, Zhenn, Lilian and Terence. I am always so amazed at how He is always not too late, not too early, but just on time.
He always create a miracle on the last day of the month. Usually by the end of the month, I would have become so discouraged, anxious with the red sea face to face, and the enemies behind.
On the 30 March, I decided to take a break after the long month of discouragement. I have decided to spend the time resting and praying at home rather than to go and face the hard truth that I did badly for sales. However, on the very morning, I receive a purchase order of 40k. That was a miracle. Why a MIRACLE? Because I met up with the managing director and she told me specifically over the email that she will not purchase in this month. I don't think this is a coincidence but God. Thank God because of this miracle, everything was turned around. I hit the highest sales record within the team.

On the 26 April, Boss told me that I got to close a total of 6-digit sales when I am only at 10k...in 2 months time. I would have lost heart if not for the hand of God. Yesterday night I was reading the bible to restore my little weak heart.. It says "the same measure will be given back to you, press down, shaken together, running over".. I decided to give an offering today. And I started worshipping God.. His presence was tangibly felt whilst walking to the lift. I teared.
Shortly after cust called to confirmed a 24K order.. and nearing the end of the day another cust called to confirm another 11k order when I quoted something anyhow.
God never fails. Yet on the last day of the month, he performed another miracle.

I just wanna say God, I know You are real. You are alive and You love people.
I love You too.

Jehovah Jireh


Gal 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

Hi its me again!!!
Hahah I would like to share with you how God has blessed my life. Just a brieft background...
I graduated from NTU with a 2nd Class Honors in Chemical Engineering. Right after I graduated, I enrolled myself into SOT in 2008. This was a challenging time for me as I had to give tuition to sustain m SOT school fees and also to give to building fund. As such I had to take on 4 tuition jobs to support myself. That time I made a faith pledge of $XXXX.(For more details pls contact me!=p) I began giving and giving, and without realizing I actually exceeded my pledge amount. This was the time when the financial crisis hits hard at the world economy. As such, right after SOT, jobs were scarce and most of my friends who were chemical engineers, had already gotten a stable job of monthly income of at least $3000. It was totally demoralizing to find myself out of jobs for a long time. Finally I managed to find a job as a sales engineer after 5 long months of praying and waiting. Though this new job I took on wasn't what I wanted to work and it pays fairly low for a graduate, it was a platform for God's miracle to take place.
Within 6months, I was headhunted by another sales company, and I was blessed with the following:
1. My Current company paid for all the my remaning days of notice which I need to serve in my old company, just so that I can start work immediately. Its close to $2000
2. There was a immediate pay increment of 50% (inclusive of transport allowance)
3. In less than a month, I was blessed with a Car, Honda Jazz worth $ 49 000. (My dad paid in full, which I am paying him monthly)
4. 4 months later I was confirmed, there was a 10% increment in my pay
5. In 2009, I became the one of the few youngest sales person that reach my sales target
6. In 2010, the blessings of God just keep pouring. In the month of March I close a sales of $300K.
7. In less than 4 months, I already achieve more than half the sales target for the yr 2010. Because of this overachieving sales, I received a recognition from the company. In fact, I am the only sales person and in fact the youngest sales person that consecutive hit 2 quarterly targets.
8. I was also given overseas exposure for trainings and conferences in this 1.5 years
9. My boss hinted that in 2011, I will be taking on an inspiring role, to lead someone. I will be under a probation for a yr, and if I pass this probation, I will be officially a team leader.
10. I managed to exceed my yearly target by 4%!!
In the midst of the job change, the transitions, God has also used me as a cell group leader. I remember Him placing an impression upon me, saying that "If I take care of His house, He will build my house". God has shown Himself really faithful as we put God first He will really make all grace abound towards us. He is able to do exceeding abundantly above what we can think or imagine.

He is Jehovah Jireh. When you sow, you shall surely reap!

The Angels =)














Work






2010 has been a really exciting year when there was really UPs and really DOWN times in my life. The transtitions had caused me to be a tougher person on the inside.

I learnt that people may not be as simple as what they seemed to be, through the departure of some. I also learnt that there are different style of leadership, but having to adapt to the different ones was the main challenge had faced last year. There were times I cried in the office, which left Boss stranded and helpless. Afterall he does get a shock out of his life to see his colleague break down.
Thank God for Buddy, Ching Yee, Des, Chris, SH, and Wati. Esp Chris, who gave me so much trust and always believing in me despite the silly mistakes I made. He is one of the nicest, funniest boss I ever come across. Thank you for being so bold in taking up the challenge as our ASM, without you, I won't be who I am today! You taught me to learn to be composed, to be rational and to be a thinker. You gave me a chance to walk on water, step on uncomfortable zones, and to stretch.
SH, thank you for being a friend, a boss and a leader. You are truly inspiring! You demostrated what it means to be physically being there for someone. I am amazed.
Sis, you are the most courageous person I deemed in the company. I am so encouraged to see you soar high!
Julian, thank you for always being here for me when everything went wrong.
Wati, I love you! Thank you for being a listening ear!
Des, thank you for being a mentor, a brother, an encourager who runs along side with me. If there is a role for a coach, I bet you will be the Best for one!
May 2011 be the best year yet
