Ivan Works a Lot

Hey everyone!

Well as you probably know I've started work, just finished my first day actually. Was pretty tiring because I didn't have a good sleep the day before, probably due to being excited or whatever.

The day was like most first days go, I suppose. A lot of administration, and a lot to adapt to. But it all went smoothly; all the paperwork, getting the pass (look ghastly in my photo again haha), all the briefings, making the rounds being introduced as the new guy, setting up of my work station...

Can't remember half the names of the people I met today, but the office atmosphere is pretty chill and the boss and colleagues are great as well. Got the cubicle right outside the boss's door so still have to be on my toes hahaha.

So yeah thank God for a hassle-free first day at work. All I need are His mercies every day to see me through.

Good news also is that my weekends seem unlikely to be touched, so yay. My boss told me straight up he's not a big fan of overtimes so my weeknights may end up being available too, if it ain't the busy period. Good to know.

@Esther: wow, you provide the most awesome updates. :) Cheers to the new life in Christ! yeah different people experience the Holy Spirit differently when they are filled - sometimes peace, sometimes joy, sometimes warmth, sometimes crying. Do desire greatly to be filled by the Spirit (sometimes we long-time Christians get dry and forget that) but also remember that what counts is to allow the Holy Spirit to shape your life to become more like Christ. Ultimately that is the test of the Holy Spirit: by the fruit we produce in our lives. Anyhow very encouraged by your sharing!

@Eunice: No attacks was because there were no birthdays in Feb/Mar (besides Pei Xuan) right?

@Keri: hahaha thanks

@Kenneth: keep persevering through those difficult spiritual times. sorry i haven't responded to your latest sms haha still reflecting about it. you know we're all still around if you need someone to talk to.
