work

My boss leaving, gave me lots to think about.
She was the big reason for me to join current company, but with her leaving, suddenly... I felt loss.

I've been thinking over the last 6-7 weeks, been thinking of a new job, been thinking of what I want to do. Quite unfortunately, the thinking came to why I came here in the first place, and why we work.

Do we work for men (or woman?)
What exactly do I want, from a job - title? salary? good environment? a Christian boss with chemistry?
Well, I tell myself that good working environement, plus something with not consistently long hours is probably the most important. Christian bosses - nice to have, not a necessity.
It seems that I do have a good working environment & stable hours currently.
And what exactly have I done here in the past 10 months?

Nothing, zip.
make friends, have a good time & work - but nothing of any meaningful eternal consequence.
So what did I leave my previous company & a good ministry for? Happiness?

Sigh... so I got off my A*S, and decided that it was time to do something.
There are other Christians around, instead of waiting for a non-Christian to read the bible with (which was my modus operandi previously), I could do something with the Christians, to encourage one another.

So getting a few people, to pray each week - we don't do that enough, do we, for each other.
So Monday morning 8Oct07, we will start - now, that's a good reason to work.


HEBREWS 10:23-25 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
