Interview at last!

Today is a historical day!

I came home from work, and my mother passed me a letter. Normally, she would leave letters on the shelf, but this letter aroused her curiosity, because it was a registered letter.

I took it, and I saw the magical word ‘Panggilan Temu Duga’ printed on the envelope. In my exitement, I tore open the letter. I’ve finally been called for an interview by Public Service Department! Hurray!

It came in wake of a series of dilemma I have been having for nearly a whole year. I rejected a few offers to discuss possibilities of working in private hospitals or centres. Then just last week, I rejected a call for interview in a university. All because I feel the deep calling to serve in a public hospital. My application to PSD was 5 May 2006. If I were still not call for interview by 5 May 2007, I will have to send in my application again. It’s been a long long wait. Call it stupidity, call it being idealistic. I call it having faith.

What was funny is that I was having serious dilemma over whether I should go for the interview on last Monday for a tutor position in a university. I was so tempted to just go for it because I was feeling so insecure. However, if I went, and was offered this position, I know I would always wonder…what if…… Thus, with encouragement and support from my family members and a lecturer, I decided to forgo this interview.

God’s timing is impeccable. The day after I rejected the interview, I received this letter. I felt God has tried me to the very last moment. My patience, faith and trust in him were put to great test for a whole year long. I am very glad to have pulled through with his strength. Although I have yet to go for interview with PSD, I feel as if I have already obtained the job. I truly thank God for being with me all these while.

Trusting him is the best experience ever, serving him is the best job ever.
