The Lord has been good to you (me)

Psalm 116:7
Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.

Because of a friend's contact, I had a meet-up with a headhunter today. Nothing interesting, but I could afford the time during my lunch break. The meeting was rather dull and the prospective role being pitched didn't make me sit up in much interest, much less jump in excitement. 

Then I came back to the office and my colleagues started sharing with me the latest rumors about the possible restructuring and how only 3 will survive. Weirdly, that never seems to unnerve me. Instead here I am telling colleagues what farewell present I wish to get, should the axe falls and I'm affected.

Of course, that is just a silly thought when there are more pressing things to worry about when one loses a job. But hey! that's the beauty of life when you don't over commit and have no debts or liabilities to worry about. 

More important than that, it's always important to remind ourselves that there's no storms in life to fret over because in every circumstances, the Lord has always been good. I hope you too will know that- should you be facing a trying circumstance.
