Whatever He says to you, do it!

I'm in awe of all that has happen in this short one week :)
I could say it was one of the biggest decision I had to make at this point of time in my life. A switch in my job. Still remaining in the same area..children..but my specialization.
It happened when I feel the Lord was asking me(as written in my previous entry)...am I putting myself in the place of training to fulfill the dream He has put in my heart. The word "focus" was something I feel very strongly inside.
So I set out to send out my resume to all the childcare or schools I know is the best in Singapore. It was quite late at night then when I send it out.
The next morning as I was on my way to work, X school name just came to mind. The same feeling I get for somethings He impress on me. And the funny thing is, the whole week, I seem to be seeing the word KK Hospital everywhere I went...the books I read and in conversations. When I reach work, I receive a call early in the morning from this lady of X school. She asked me where I would want to work and which age group I would prefer . Told her town would be great since my school is there and to work with young toddler. She asked me to arrange with this lady for an interview and plan a 45 min lesson with the kids. Plan?? I have no experience teaching a class. Heh. My current job is just to facilitate them to play computer games?
I search the net to check who this lady was who called me. I was surprised to know that she was the founder of this school! =) And it's not just any school. It's known to be the best and most expensive childcare in Singapore. Not only that, I got goosebumps when I saw where it was located. It was behind KK hospital!
Called Esther to ask for a story book. And my dear fren, dun even have a single story book in her house! but nonetheless she saw a very pretty sea animal pop out book below her work place and bought them for me. Thanks! =) She even role played it in front of me, elaine, and 'young' esther. We were just so drawed to her like little kids. Heh. Really one gifted person for children.
I arranged the interview with them. But the strange thing was when I went down for it, the lady dun even remember arranging it? Heh. Till now I wonder was it an angel. So it was an impromptu interview for them. And so happen the HR director was there at that branch the other day. The children love the story book and one even stop crying after listening to me =) Esther : I counted the legs of the octopus haha ;)
But the most difficult decision I had to make was another offer I had by another school which was equally as good as this and had been the place I had wanted to work in the last time. Ask any parent or childcare teacher and they would be able to tell you what they are :) And they were offering me much higher but it was for the position of Sales.
Then He reminded me of the word 'focus' again...
If I choose the first, I wouldn't be able to survive as a large amount will be taken away for my sch fees beginning this month. Even though it was somewhat 'low', but all my frens who are in this industry would say that it was v high for an assistant teacher. Even they dun get this as a teacher, what more an assistant. Human logic tells me to choose the second. People tell me that it was obvious. I thought so too. So my mind was running back and forth between those two. One time I can be sure of one, another time another. It was such a tough decision then. I opened the Bible to read and everything seem to be pointing to X school. There were a lot more things He showed me in those verses along the way which I think it would be too much to share here ;)
So I took a half day leave to try out today. I wanted to be sure of my decision. Told Him that if He wants me here, He'll increase my pay.I never knew it was so fun playing with the 2-3 year old. There's just such a sense of joy being around them. To me they are the cutest age group. They can understand you, baby talk and not answer back unlike the 4 to 5yrs haha...
I then finally decided to call the HR director to negotiate my pay. And you wont believe me. In just 5 mins on the phone, she increase my pay by 500! Now I'm paid as much as if I would have taken the Sales position. The teachers there said that never in their life have they heard of an assistant teacher getting paid this high. One of them told me she started off much lower as a teacher, not even an assistant. Even I am shocked by the amount I asked. Heh. How He knew too that I needed the extra cash to monthly pay off my sch fees beginning this month and still be able to shop =D
And this job allows me to serve again :) soon I hope...and attend arrow. No more working on Sat! =)
After this experience it gave me a greater confidence to follow after the life or the impression He gives me. Do not reason or go by human logic. After I came back from the interview, I open up to the devotion today(January 11th) by 'The Vine'. The verses given was so timely and confirms to me what the Lord has been showing me... "Whatever He says to you, do it"  When you obey His voice, He will ALWAYS come thru for you :)
