I have planned that...
This blog should only take one day of my time, but it turned out six days.
The title of this blog was "Almost, but not yet" but it turned out "Expect the unexpected."
This blog should only talk about what happened last Monday, but it turned out until today (Saturday).
This blog should only talk about what we've felt after learning the reasons behind the sudden changed in my schedule.
Praise God!!! Again, His will be done.
As I start this blog, I haven't changed any my original thoughts.
This is my second time I will have to use this blog title ("Almost, but not yet.").
The first time I used this blog title was in Multiply.com (when the original website was still up and running). It was about my module in my previous project as IT Professional.
I was new then in our team when I was given a tasks which kind of difficult for me; The framework is not familiar so as the business process, etc. everything was completely different.
To make to story short, I was able to complete tasks and promoted to production. I was very excited that finally I can now move to another task/module, only I've learned there will be a new change request that I need to re-code everything from my previous tasks.
It may sounds weird but I titled my multiply blog "Almost, but not yet", thinking that I could move to my new tasks, however, because of the new requirements, I need to re-code everything. :/
Our (my wife and I) Monday could have been a perfect day.
We woke up early, had our breakfast then went to the office -- we're not late. Praise God!
Currently, I'm handling production support for our project in Korea.
I'm glad because:
- No major and urgent issues raised.
- Some of our counter part Business Associates in Korea were on leave.
- We'll have a bonding time with my team
- It seems a very relaxing day for me.
Ea (my wife) is eight months pregnant and will delivery soon and her office is preparing a baby shower
I got an email from my wife, just letting me know that everything is set for the baby shower that coming Friday. The schedule, food, gifts, attendees, etc. everything is perfectly Ok. Thank God.
But when I'm about to reply to her email and tell her how excited I am, I received another email from her informing me to disregard the previous email. Something came up and everything changes.
Unfortunately not all are into her baby shower. The only thing that will proceed was the schedule day.
Friday came. Scheduled lunch-out with my team while Ea will attend her short baby shower during lunch break.
About 9.30am when I received a text message from her teammate, asking me if I can create a surprise message for Ea and for our baby will then be presented for the baby shower. So I drafted my message and later on I sent as email then went out for lunch.
After lunch, when we came back to the office and checked my email, to my surprise, the email that I sent was blocked by our company email due to the attachment I included. The attachment was a text file containing my simple message for my wife and my baby.
I guess it not intended to be sent that time and be read to the whole group.
So I called Ea, she told me that she was overwhelmed and very thankful to her friends in the office because of the time, money and efforts that they exerted to have the baby shower successfully organized.
Then I told her about what happened to my message that I sent which was not sent. :)
Finally, after office we went out and bought things our baby. Now, we're just waiting for him to be born.
Praise God and thanks to her friends in her office for the gifts. :)
I remember the story of Joseph (Joseph The Dreamer. Exodus 37 - 45.)
Joseph was hated by his brothers because their father loved him more than any of his sons. He had a dream about ruling over his brothers. That's why they hated him more.
In spite of what his brothers have done to him and what happened to him along the way, he became more than what he had dreamed of.
Truly, God's plan is beyond our knowledge and comprehension. We can't even percepts the slightest clue of what He's thinking. That is because He is God, and we are not. His wisdom is beyond ours.
The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps. —Proverbs 16:9
Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. —Proverbs 19:21
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. —Jeremiah 29:11
Praise God and God bless..
