changes in me

its been a while since i posted here, been using other sites which has quick links to facebook since i am on there most of the time.

so what has been happening to me since my last post of 2009.

for one, which is the best one of all, i have become a Christian ! some might find that difficult to believe but I have found solace in reading and hearing the word of God. It has helped me in a lot of things which contributed also to lot of things. Sort of a chain reaction.

I have grown not to worry, as i leave that to the Lord. He will take care of me as I have surrendered myself to Him. How and why would you say it has helped me, well as part of the teachings of the Lord, you have to depend on Him for everything, you ask for help on anything you want or need and all that He asks is for you to live by His words. It is not a condition in exchange for anything. What He is saying is follow me and live by My words and you shall have salvation and eternal life. May sound profound but if you study you will understand.

So as I surrender everything to Him, i have found that I worry less and when I do that I don't get stressed and I am in control of my attitude. I am not depressed, I don't easily get angry and I am more calculated in what I say and do these days. And consider how wonderful this is, I am currently out of work since April. Under normal circumstances, I would have been a wreck by now and my wife and I would have been fighting everyday. But, I am happy...happy in a different sense that I feel content and have no worries.

I also have done something I didn't imagine I would do. I have been reading the bible and trying to understand and adsorb what it teaches. Imagine that, I have finished almost 5 books of the bible since June this year.

On the work front, i am still looking for some permanent work, good thing I was able to work the whole of last year. Still going to interviews with the best possible mindset I can. But the thing is, I think I am priced out of the market,as soon as they hear how much I am getting, they drop me like hot potato. But that is their prerogative, I will continue to offer my services and I know the right opportunity will be there.

As I wait I continue to improve myself through reading and continue to be patient and humble as I wait.
