Fighting Spirit

This past few weeks, I have been fighting and racing against time.

It's actually office matters, it's secondary priority in my life after my family however it's my responsibility in my work.

In the past 2 months, I have been searching for this new home for our team. It's not an easy task, I have been viewing almost 50 units, strolling back and forth around Tanjong Pagar and Raffles area until I remember the road, the street along the stretch of tall building.

I made friends with few property agents, met strangers and became friends.

The requirements of the new office have been changed now and then as we want to get the best unit.

In the end, we found one according to our needs and liking. However, the challenges didn't stop there.

We raced against the time as we had only 2 weeks to complete everything before moving in.

I needed to find the contractors to do minor renovation while the company didn't allocate any budget for renovation. I needed to give facts finding to convince the management while sourcing for the contractor who could do the work faster with minimal budget.

Nevertheless, even we already found one, another challenge came up. We need to make sure that electricity are fire safety are according to the standard requirements.

The management only wants to sign the agreement if everything is working well. 

Juggling and convincing different parties involved are not easy tasks.

Nobody knows what I have been going through except God, myself and my husband.

Everyday since this project starts I have been praying and fasting, consecrating this new office to God even though I didn't know where this place will be.

Everyday I have been praying for those people whom I met and will meet along the journey, I bless each of them even though we may not have the opportunity to work together.

Everyday I pray for daily Grace to help and strengthen me especially for the impossible tasks given

Everyday I pray for God's wisdom for every decision I need to make and every step I need to take

Everyday I pray for the higher management, whom I believe is God's chosen ones whom I need to submit to them so that they are inspired by Holy Spirit and guided by His wisdom

Indeed, through this complicated journey, I only can say that God works wonder through me and everyone I meet.

He puts the right people in the right place and in the right time.

The fight has not over yet, but I believe once God has started His work, He will finish it perfectly in His appointed time.

Eventhough I feel burdened and couldn't sleep well this past few days, I always believe that He's will me and will never leave me alone.

One sweet proof is this WA message from one of the vendors I meet, strangers become consoler. It gives me a courage and conviction to do what I'm supposed to do, to bless other people.

We are blessed to bless others so that the others who receive our blessing will bless others too and it creates multiplier effect.
