What's new?

I am tremendously blessed by the love and encouragement I received from my brothers and sisters through comments to my last post, emails, FB messages etc. I want to thank each one of you from the bottom of my heart. I also want to thank Jesus for this on-line community I am part of. Though its electronic and 2 dimensional, blogging and facebooking are already a huge part of my life now.

In the last post, I mentioned about a pending job opportunity. I want to update everyone that It has worked out in my favor. After a lengthy process (background check etc) and a lot of paper work, on Monday I started on the new job at Ford Motor Company. It's been only 2 days, but so far I like it. Just like any new job, there are times I feel stupid and clueless :). But I think I will get over it as I get the clearer picture of the tasks I have to do in the coming days. I am excited about this opportunity and kind of eager to work.

So, thats the good news!

I like to add something I read over at Joel's blog as an encouragement to those who are currently unemployed and struggling in various ways:

There's nothing going on that God's not aware of. He's in us, He is our life.

He's someone who is conscious about us all the time - inclined toward us all the time - and ever aware of what we're thinking, feeling, saying, doing, being, wanting, contemplating, desiring...

I believe it. Our God is not passive (though sometimes we feel so). He is always holding us in His hands. We are safe, secured and He will turn things into our favor at the end. We may not know how. But He will.

Once again, thank you all and I love you all.

Bino, that's really good news! I'm very happy that you've got this new position and that it seems to be working out so far for you. I remember the various times when I've started new jobs, and indeed it is a bit awkward and unsettling at first, but I pray and I know that you'll slide right into your new job.

***BIG SMILE***

I have a question???

Is there an elevator with a mirror where you can still contemplate your "balding spot"?!? Ahahahahahahaha!! I remember that post!

Ford Motor Company is blessed to have you, my brother!

Much love to all.

Bino
Do you get a Lincoln Town Car or just Cobra?

Bino M. said...

Thank you all! :)

Jamie - Unfortunately this office is only 2 story and I am in the first floor. No more fun in the elevator. :)

WC - We are on Cobra. Lincoln and all is for the big guys there :)

I ALWAYS have fun in the elevator. I JUMP as we are getting ready to stop. Yeah, I know, but it's sooooo FUN!!! LOL
