A large chunk of my score card at work depends on the result of customer surveys on my service. The clincher is, no matter how you give your best, if the customer doesn’t feel like it, you will always get a zero.
Earlier today we had our team meeting and I was bummed out because I received my first survey score out of the 4 surveys this month and it's a fail. I knew already how it will significantly affect my scorecard and my incentives and it’s hard to be cheerful that moment. After our meeting, I took my lunch break inside our company’s prayer room and talked to my Father in heaven. I told Him that I will need three perfect 10’s in order to maintain my high scores. But I also told Him (more like reminding myself) that He is my boss and I will praise Him whether I flunk or I pass. After lunch, we received an email on the latest update on our survey scores for the entire month.
And guess what? Three perfect 10’s for me!
I blinked back tears when it dawned on me that He has long answered my prayer before I even uttered it.
I couldn’t feel more secure than when I strongly feel that God is involved even in little events in my life. Not just as a Spectator watching me quietly as I pray but Someone who..
knows when I sit down or stand up
knows my thoughts even when I’m far away
knows everything I do and what I am going to say even before I say it
goes before me and follows me
recorded every day of my life before it even happened.
Yes, it’s Psalm 139. And like I said in my blog in the past, no one ever is going to be more involved in my life or your life than the Person described in this passage.
Read it. Meditate it. Even alter the pronouns and make it seem as if God’s talking to you.
I love it when He woos. He’s the only Wooer who means every word.
His love is too lofty to understand!
