When I discussed with my friend, she was so happy for me and said I should accept the offer. She didn’t understand what exactly I needed to think about. The next day or so, I still went ahead to submit my application someplace else and another man who overheard me talking asked me to stop by his office and submit my application. Fortunately for me, his office was closer to my home. So the next day, I did and after talking for a while, he stated the working hours, job description and remuneration (which was almost 1/3^rd of the previous offer). Also, the second place wasn’t as big as the first. I asked him for a couple of days to get back to him and went home so confused. Now, I had a choice to make, and I couldn’t afford to make mistakes as my decision was gonna set the foundation for my professional career.  The first option was definitely going to give me more cash and more exposure. Even though it was gonna cost me more; transport-wise, it still looked like the reasonable option, yet, there was just something holding me back – I couldn’t place what exactly. There was something off about the whole arrangement and I lost my peace about it.  It wasn’t fear of work or not being able to deliver (no). I just felt it wasn’t God’s Will for me, and so I struggled. The more I tried to convince myself that the restlessness was all in my head, the more restless I became. And to me, my peace is everything. I remember falling into my bed that night, broken before God. I told Him to tell me exactly what to do and I would do it no matter what. I cried out to Him in my confusion and then the weirdest thing happened. Never had I experienced such. I picked up my Bible that I had just put on my bed (moments before, as I prepared to pray) and it was turned to this part of Scripture saying, ‘’Help me to prefer obedience to making money! Turn me away from wanting any other plan than yours. Revive my heart toward you. Reassure me that your promises are for me, for I trust and revere you.’’  Recall that I had just placed the Bible on my bed that night, I hadn’t turned to any place in particular to study. So picking it up and seeing that particular passage shook me. I felt like I was in a dream. I shut my eyes and opened them and there I was; still starring at these life giving Words. I had to read them out loud again and again until the Words became life to my spirit. Immediately, I knew what I had to do. I sent a text message to the manager of the first place; thanking him for the opportunity to work with them but politely declining the offer. I felt at perfect peace with that decision and turned back in worship to my Glorious, ever Surpriseful Father; Who never leaves us as orphans in the rain; Who hears us when we earnestly cry out to Him for help. I couldn’t still believe the way He showed me what to do. That was the first time I had ever experienced such but definitely not the last. Another weird thing about that incident was that even though that was my first time of seeing that particular Scripture, I couldn’t find it again after then. I searched and searched for years but I still couldn’t find it. If I wasn’t so sure it was real, I probably would have convinced myself that it was a dream. I finally found it again a couple of years ago and this time, I quickly noted it down. Psalm 119:36-38. (The translation quoted above is The Living Bible Version).
