I once read that what seems like a bad day may turn out to be a good day and what seems like a good day may in reality be a really bad day. Or what may seem like a fantastic news may eventually result into something really bad or what may seem like a really bad news may turn out for our good.
10 years ago I was considering an internal job posting. Having worked with the BPO for so many years I was excited about being promoted to a team leader. I worked real hard towards this promotion. I went through all the rounds. At the tail end of this process, I didn't make it. I failed the final interview.
This was one big failure. It seemed like a big failure. Utterly disappointed and downcast I spent many days feeling
hopeless. I spent the next few weeks in gloom... I hardly understood that all things work together for good for those who love GOD and for those who are called according to HIS purposes.
And then one fine afternoon, the head of my department recommended that I move into training and development and put in a high recommendation for me. I went through all the rounds half hearted and least bothered. I was not even aware of what the future had in store for me through this opportunity.
To my amazement I got the job !
Then I applied to IBM and got a promising role there. I worked my way up and also met the person who told me all about a Loving Savior. So what seemed like a bad day spiralled into the most unbelievable promotion and of course led to me to getting to know JESUS.
And what seems like an awesome day eventually turned into a day I wish I never woke up to !
Like the day I met the person who did me the most wrong. However, the day he asked me out seemed to be the best day ever. It seemed to me the most beautiful day of my life. Little did I know that 8 months later this was going to result into the worst heart break ever !
So I have been trying to change my attitude when I have a bad day. Just wondering what is in store for me beyond the despair of the gloomy today. Or may be just praying about the great day I`ve had even asking for the strength to face an uncertain tomorrow...
Like the famous hymn says ``this child can face uncertain days because HE lives``
