Worry-Flavored Bubble Gums by Charmaine Chammag

I received and accepted Christ in my life two years back and a lot of changes happened. From being shy about my faith to being bold about it; from being a control freak to being self-controlled; from asserting my rights to giving what I have. Those two years were pruning times where I grew in the wisdom of God and was smothered thick with His love! Now, His love is overflowing in me. :)

I press on in this joyful journey and I share with you His love, grace, and truth. I am in a race and it is not yet finished. And as I run, I will stand witness to God's faith, hope, and love. :) With this, I hope you get inspired to get to know more about God, to dwell in His word, and know that He loves you so. :)

Trust. "He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. - Matthew 17:20". If I have faith as small as a mustard seed… But I already have so little faith! How can this be?!

I have unlimited supply of worry-flavored bubble gums. Worry in career, finances, dreams, love ones, and the future. There’s no direct order to all these thoughts, only I tend to pop-chew-and-spit one at a time, nonstop!

Temptation still creeps its way to my system. I get distracted in trusting and believing in God who is in control of all. Truly I need grace. I cannot do this alone. He will fight my battles. “The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still. - Exodus 14:14".

God always has a bigger view of things. We get disappointed on events we have no control of. It disheartens us, but rest assured God knows what’s best and He has the best plans yet.

I have such a small faith, but with this faith I will cling. Cling to my God who continues to bring hope in my life.

Story behind…

Lately I had this urge to quit my job and explore other opportunities abroad. My wants have been changing lately which lead to jump hunt from one site to another. I applied for an Employment Pass Eligibility Certificate (EPEC) for Singapore, but my application was rejected. I have also been submitting my CV and resume to a lot of companies these past few days but I haven’t had any feedback as well. I may not know exactly why I was rejected or why I don’t get notified by companies I have been applying to, but rest assured God knows…
