back to the basics, God is faithful

so the week before last week, i was sick and took 2 days off work. last friday was the time to put in my working hours on the computer, all of our hours we keep track ourselves and later our manager approves them, but realistically we can put anything we want so long as its not outrageous. So i consulted a few people about how i should put my hours since its the first time i had to take a sick leave and my manager wasnt there, i've heard from some peeps that interns dont get paid for sick days, and some other peeps say we should, i asked one HR guy and he suggested i play dumb and just put it as regular as if i worked. Now if i dont get paid for sick days, thats a loss of 200 dollars. So i was thinking what i should do, then i thought what would Jesus do, its cliche but it works, tho i dont have the bracelet anymore, i dont need it. So I put down two days worth of sick days. And now i get the pay cheque, not only did i get paid for those sick days, there was a year end bonus which we didnt think interns would get (cos we were under the impression it was only for regular emplyees) and it comes to about 200 dollars. So PTLs, he works so faithfully. It's crazy how simple obedience leads to cool blessings. Let this encourage y'all to trust and obey.

woot!
honesty is important.
and God rewarded you in abundance! ^_^

haha actually, it makes me think of something one of our ACF brothers, Kota (our resident Japanese ACF-er) is always emphasizing about God giving back in abundance from what we offer up to Him [mm don't remember where in scripture]; he takes very literally his offerings and counts their return, which is pretty cool

haha I could kind of seeing you do that, but I could also just see you not even bothering to count b/c you know that God wouldn't ever short-change you ^_^

take care and keep on hard after Him!! p.s. are you coming to ACF banquet??
