It’s another night of me writing these posts on my phone. I can’t type well with one hand even though I have the right keyboards to even attempt it. But it’s also because I give my finger a bit of time to just breathe. It gets waterlogged from the day of plaster use.
There’s many times in my life when things happen in a series of events, almost as if it’s a movie. Based on my Christian beliefs, that’s where I know God is working through or talking to me through it. A non Christian might call it a serendipitous moment, and I don’t mind it, but I like the idea of God of the universe speaking directly to me a little more. There are definitely times when I know it’s 100% true. Today was one of the times.
I was questioning many things in my head. Work and vocation thoughts, thoughts about friends and colleagues moving away, and I guess just the passing of time in life. And I even thought, man the work I have to prepare for today is so meaningless.
The work was to present a teaching session for a Bible teaching, and I wasn’t sure of the place of it in my day to day work. I didn’t really grumble but I just did it with enough effort. Usually I would give 110%, but I gave it 100%; something like that.
Immediately after the session I reflected, and I realized “meaningless work” was exactly what I had been struggling with through the weekend. I was thinking of next steps, and what else I would end up doing especially with life getting busier and me getting older. This teaching was exactly it. I could not have imagined a better answer for a question that was running in my head for so long.
In any case, super big revelation, and I’m really glad life has continued in its trajectory. I guess I will see where else God leads me to, and gladly appreciate the serendipitous moments with the God of the universe.
