Boastful heart cast out God's blessing

God works in miracle way that we cannot predict or even see, but He really works for us! Amazingly, I got couples of job offers without me calling the company to beg them to recruit me. Not only that, they have offer me a higher pay than the the previous job whom neglected me.


But is not really about money... I have seek the Lord for answer should I pick up the offer, is so tempting and Yes! I really need that sum of money for my house loans. God didn't give me the answers specifically... in fact, He starts to deal with my "root-problems". Since last year May till now, I have switched 4 jobs! I was really downcast, and wonder why all jobs didn't work perfectly! I did pray for success in my work. YES! God has blessed me smooth sailing in every piece of job that I done, but unfortunately, I unable to work with the employers, cause the way they handle things is so unbearable, that ended me have to fire my boss.. and the last one I got stewed by my boss.... I know God has always taught us to submit to the highest authority, but I still finding is hard to surrender to submit to unreasonable boss, however to come to second thoughts, if I can't submit to my boss, how can I have the cheek, to talk about being filial to my mum who is so naggy and how can I sumbit to God who is unseen?


When I begin, to seek God for help to find new "perfect" job, I could feel the fear to work. Firstly, I am so afraid of same incident will repeat again. However, Lord shows me differently in this area... He reminded me,

• There is no perfect job except a PERFECT GOD. If there is a perfect job, it wouldn't be my turn.
  
  
  

• Because I think too highly of myself, and cause me to lose all my jobs.
  
  
  

• Over perfectionist lead me to be a big failure to my "mission".
  
  
  

• PLUS my harden neck I refused to take advises, that make me stuck at the same "spot" and unable to move elsewhere.

God has showed me above 4 points happened was because of the word "ARROGANT" and by this I have secretly hidden my potential without knowing. Of course, is good to be proud of the thing you do cause we often say we take pride in the things we do, but not with a boast heart because, that will make yourself feel greater than God.

Who can be as great or greater than God? For He is the one who has created me. Who can compare His wisdom? For His thought is higher than mine! No one can fathom my Lord Jesus.
