Two weeks with my new work is so relieving. It was so quick. I am always grateful for the opportunity and for the blessings.
Yesterday, I attended the sales meeting with the Europe team and OMG! Literally OMG! I can’t believe it, it’s really big! I finally met the people working from all territories across the UK and Europe. I was seated all day with people working with all the sales and figures. The marketing, lead generation and pledges was crazy. But to be honest, it’s all almost the same when we do area meetings when I was still in the bank. Almost the same. The same strategies, the same commitment, the same quota. I am so lucky I am not in that position to look for prospects/leads and clients. Purely office/sales administration. I am working independently without rubbing shoulders with anyone or with a strict boss inside the office. NONE! Thank you Lord! I am so done with that kind of environment.
Today, my managing director and sales director are not here in the office. They’re probably meeting customers and busy with meetings. I am all by myself, my the IT guys from India inside the office. Josley, one of the IT head support is going to the same church as me. I saw him last Sunday at church, I never thought he is a Christian because he’s Indian but his name sounds so Spanish.
Jacqueline, one of the Senior Sales Manager, who is Scottish came to the meeting yesterday and she’s literally like a barbie doll. All dolled-up and so pink. I love her vibe, her alpha-woman attitude. And she brought some Scottish biscuits which were so tasty and delicious. I also booked her a taxi going to terminal 5 yesterday. I am so lucky to get contacts with Five star taxis. And she promised to catch up again soon once she’s back.
Today, we have a beautiful verse from the book of Hebrews. This verse instructs believers to “make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord”. This verse commands a dual pursuit: actively seeking harmonious relationships with others while maintaining strict personal purity and devotion to God.
Making every effort. In Greek, this means to run swiftly after, pursue intensely, or chase with urgency. It requires deliberate, continuous energy.
Live in peace with everyone. Believers must actively resolve conflict and foster harmony, extending even to non-believers and hostile outsiders.
Be holy. This refers to sanctification. It means being set apart from sin and dedicated entirely to God’s values and purposes.
See the Lord. This means experiencing intimate fellowship to God, both in this present life and ultimately in eternity.
This verse serves as a vital safeguard when someone is facing an intense social isolation, financial loss, and temptation to abandon their faith in this high-pressure environment.
God bless us all.j
