The Reason Why God Transfer me to Surabya
I'm so thankful to God for HIS new assignment in Surabaya even it was a very long argue with God before I decided work here at UPH Surabaya.
Two weeks before my test and interview at UPH, I already got confirmation for a new job, one in Batam work as a Lecturer at Batam International University and the other one in Semarang for Telecommunication Company. I preferred to Batam because I had been stay there, have many church friends and my ex-boyfriend in Singapore. so I thought it was God's plan to reunite us. I had plan we could meet every week, serve Lord together and attend ceremonial church together. I thought It would be a new wonderful life for me.
But my plan is not God's plan. God put a burden in my heart to come to finish the test at UPH. I said,...Lord, why I should go to UPH? I got 2 jobs offering. If I go to UPH, it's costly and I don't want to spend my money for nothing. I don't know what benefit they offer for me. Every day God put in my heart to come to UPH. Someday one of my close friend called me and asked whether I'm in financial difficulty or not. I asked her why she asked me that question? She only replied, God put in my heart to bless you at this time, I'm transferring IDR 500,000 to your account now. I didn't understand and next day my other friend invited me to her house. She asked me to stay at her house to supervise her house keeper during her travel to Australia. I told her that probably I can't stay at her house for whole week, not sure yet but maybe I go out from Jakarta for several days. She told me that it's OK and before she left, she gave me IDR 500,000. She spoke probably I need money for meals or shopping. I was surprise and at the same time, God put in my heart,..tuti, I already provided the cost for your trip to UPH Surabaya. I thought, Yes, I will go, at least it's a traveling for me because I never been to Surabaya. I didn't lose anything. My airfare only IDR 600,000 for 2 ways, I stay at my traveler friend's house and I still have IDR 400,000.
On the way to Surabya, I made agreement with God. I spoke, Lord... if UPH is the right place for me to work and serve you, I want they give me confirmation that they hire me or not at my interview time. I knew it a bit crazy and impossible because I know every recruitment process need time to discuss among people at the organization and user. If they are not, on the way I go back to Jakarta, I will call vice rector of UIB that I accept his job offering and send me ticket to Batam.
After I finished interview with Pak Parapak, Ibu Syane asked me to wait for 10 minutes and she came and invited me to her room. She passed me work agreement and asked me whether any condition to be revised. I was shock and asked her is UPH hire me? Bu Syane yes,. and when I able to joint? God reminded my words and agreement. I said, Yes Lord,.. I want to obey YOU.
30 minutes after that, when I was enjoying my lunch at CITOS, my friend named Nadira called me. she asked me to meet her tomorrow morning 10am to meet her friend, President Director of JDA Company. Nadira told me that Pak Bob want to meet me because he has money for charity and if he impress with me, he will pass it to my handicapped children. I told Nadira that I was in Surabaya and I have medical test tomorrow therefore I could be in Jakarta in the afternoon. Nadira told me that it was a hard to meet Pak Bob because he is very busy. Ya,...it was true because me and Nadira already planned to meet him for 2 months but we didn't have chance. I even asked my boss to help me to arrange a short meeting with Pak Bob because Pak Bob is Australian and my boss too, and they have a good relationship, but still it wasn't work until the day when I agreed to work in Surabaya. I told Nadira to give me time and called the HR manager of UPH whether I could go for medical test this afternoon so I could back to Jakarta on night train. Ibu Syane allowed me to go and called the PIC at Siloam Hospital.
I arrived in Jakarta 7.30am, I and a friend from Rawinala went to Cilandak Town Square to meet Nadira and we went together to meet Pak Bob. I was very nervous and didn't know how to present what our program for multiple handicapped children at Rawinala. I just show our brochure (and it was in bahasa) and show him printed photos of our kids. I tried to talk and find the words, 5 minutes later.. Pak Bob said that he already heard about our children from Nadira and he has IDR 50mio for our kids now. do you want to take it all now or what..? He called his accountant and asked him to prepare cheque. I didn't know what to say,..I only could said, thank you so much and shed tears because I was so happy. It was a miracle and great blessing from God as reward from my obeying to HIS Plan. After we got the cheque, I remember that I didn't take a bath or even brush teeth. I just realized that my body was smell,....he....he....Sorry Nadira if I had make you not comfortable beside me
April 1st, I arrived in Surabaya. I started pray,.God where is the place that YOU want me to serve. I was away from my children at Rawinala and it was very difficult for me. 2 years I spent my time with them and they are part of my life. Every time I looked children on the street for begging, I asked God..are they the children that YOU want me to serve you? April 20th, I saw an announcement at UPH about TLC program. I came to bu syane and asked more information about it. Bu syane told me that we have scholarship student who come from poor family. Even one of them was suffer and should go to hospital. I was surprise because I never thought any poor student at UPH because as I know tuition fee of UPH is very expensive. I never knew that UPH has scholarship student. I remember in the morning April 24th, when I was praying God put in my heart a disire to get information about these students and know them closer. I met Pak Leo as PIC for student service and asked his time to talked. Pak Leo told me alot about them. A student who really need financial help and all their suffering. It was move me and during my conversation with Pak Leo, God put a conviction in my heart that these students are the people that God want me to spend my time to serve HIM. I was praying, God if they are, please give me a sign to ensure what YOU had put in my heart. I want to help this student to fix her problem so open the way for me to bless her. God did it. Only need a week, God solve that problem. I was so thankful for God because HE give me a great ministry in Surabaya.
I feel so blessed live here and enjoy my fellowship with the students. At my previous job, I only needed by my boss. My goal is only to achieved project target. My mobile phone only rang for customer complaint and I just heard the words WHY and WHEN.
Now, work as a lecturer make me feel very needed by my students. Now when my phone ring, I hear,..mom,. could you please teach me,...or could you please check my homework,..? In Sunday morning, when I turn on my mobile phone, I got SMS,..happy blessed Sunday mom,... hmm, but some time in 6am, I got SMS,..mom please check your email about my work whether it's right or wrong,..I thought,..are my students think UPH pay me work for 24 hours?? he...he...just joking....I cant describe how happy my life and feel honor among them. Some time they ask my time for share about life,..ask me to share about my life and my dream....my hope and pray,.. I could be bless them thru all my life,.. help them to find their destiny in God....ya...even I'm praying that God is not assign me in Surabaya for along time,..but I want every second of my life here useful,... for my students that God trust to me,..for my boss Prof Loue,..I hope I could be a good assistant for him during my time at UPH Surabaya and please pray for me that I could understand what you expect from my job,..and for my co-worker around me, I could be a blessing for you, a good friend,..and I just want to say that this birthday is a special birthday for me because God trust me for a bigger ministry,..trust me to lead my student to grow up together in God,..not only to find money for needy like in the past but also to teach the truth of God promise to HIS children. Thank God,..My savior,..My King,..The Master plan of my Life
Pak Rick,..to be honest, I miss you so much especially when I was in bad day because usually you always have time to hear me even you were very busy but the good news, I learn to be more mature...but I also have a very good boss here named Prof Loue,.. don't worry about me,..ya,..If God want some day I work for you,..HE will open the way,..and I keep praying for you pak,..You more than a big boss for me,..you done many things for my handicapped children and always encourage me.
