Work-related

Some work experience to share from work and reminds me of His words lately.

Few clients have called previous and had disputes on their water invoices and believing we have made huge errors to cause the billing problems. I have witnessed these people have a common habit of putting conclusion within the first 3 minutes of the phone calls, without even asking what was wrong. Here and there I’ve tried to explained and attempt a good discussion with them. In results these calls have gone into complains and out of my hands.


“Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (Matt 7:1) rang a bell to me all of a sudden.

We seem to have a habit that we’d easily judge on a persons’ personality, the way how people do things, so that when we come across to these people we know what to say, what to avoid happening. Many customer that I’ve come across (and they’re usually mid-age, watch out) also have the same habit. They’d call up and ask for something, but then when you started to explain things, they’d just stop you on the 5th second and then blah blah blah….

I can totally understand customers’ perspective how they understand things. To gather some concepts and come out in one theory (and this probably apply to you, me or them), when we don’t understand something, we’d generally seek and ask. But then inside our heart we have a boundary or a pattern that waiting for the sender to fit into our understanding. Which means, when things are explained in a way that we don’t get it, we’d think they aren’t doing it in the right way. Some people of course will try to learn, listen, and adapt your ways of explanation, but some just simply don’t. And it is ok, we don’t have to be sponge all the time, taking everything what other peoples says, we can have our own thinking.

But I’d say it is basic manner, and appropriate that if we all would first listen and learn, if we don’t find this fit into our ways, we could think about it later. Rather than in the first 5 seconds we just stop them and say no and they’re wrong.

Same to God, there are many things that we don’t understand about Jesus/Christianity, because He is the Lord the saviour, there are many things that we are taking it as human perspective, while God has a bigger picture to tell us what’s that all about in His kingdom. Some of us would just right away shut our doors and ears and say God is fake, God is wrong. In fact, it is just us that have not spend the time to listen, learn, or even if we’ve done all the time spending part, we simply just not accepting the fact that He is our saviour and He gives greatest love to us.

I am still learning and I hope that wherever I am for work, church, social circle. I will still be able to adapt God’s teaching and apply it into my daily life.

2012 Comes to an end

Another 6 hours, 2012 will come to an end.

Every year I let myself sit down, take out a piece of paper and write down in my black marker of my next year goals (I am a visualise person). And that usually happens few days before the 31st, while I have time.

I didn't know the time until when I opened my old pictures from the computer, then I'd realsie how fast time flies.

Cutting it short, 2012 was happy, was tough.

But I see God's work in me through out this year. Many angels were sent to me.

I saw myself growing not just from being more serious about things happen around me, but more discipline on myself. I value my promise to others, when I say yes I really made them all. And of course, I said alot of No too becuase I just simply dont want to break promise to others. I know how it feels.

I thank to that Angel who has taught me to be more precise about time/promise at church, and that revolved my overall well-being at the end.

I was unemployed for about 6 months, I was more or less supported if not financially, but more spirigually & mentally by a person. When I am ready, he took off.

I thank to that Angel has spent time with me, supported me, taught me and gone though a touch 6 months with me. Even though sometimes I hate him, he is still one Angel in my life.

The first half of the year I was unemployed, and the second half of the year I have gone through a tough time by facing a cruel fact. And this fact has affected my value and doubt on myself.

I thank to that Angel(s) who have always call me at the right time, they are always here for me, and look for me. They put extra care on me when my head is down. It seem like some kind of connection going on that even though I am so far far away from them, they can still smell what's happening around me. Yes, they are my parents.

I see happiness as well as bitterness in myself.

I get very bsuy with church and even more busy when God knows I am weak. I see that as homework that given by Him. Church and friends have kept me really busy, even though they do not mean to be and not because of trying to company me. I still thank them.

Now I treasure my private time at home to read God's words. Yes I must start reading REAP!


I pray, I really pray that I have, and everyone to have a Happy 2013. Please.

送給你, 好好照顧自己。
