Job is spelled m-a-n-n-a

I have been a freelance writer for quite sometime. Writing gig is a trend and our services are sought by companies and other individuals who are into online business. We write web contents, reviews, blogs and blurbs, SEO articles and whatnot.

Sometimes there are lean days or weeks. It happens. There are so many writers across the world competing for the available and yet limited writing gigs. Sometimes the SEO companies percolate all the projects leaving nothing to freelance writers. Thus, sometimes you get no projects from your inbox. Your portfolio floated on different avenues in the internet was simply left unnoticed.

You have no one to find fault with because these things are beyond your control. This is the only job I have. It is so patchy and sporadic. And because it is not stable, I need God to make things happen for me. And I can only give back God all the glory because by His grace, I get projects. He pours his blessings. I know that He is the only one who can arrange all these things. It is just like the manna supplied every day. God has never failed me. He is faithful. His grace is sufficient.

For His Glory

I have been contemplating lately... and I realized that there are a lot of things to be done and a lot of things to evaluate and balance and prioritize.

With the many things that have been thrown at life...sometimes we get caught in the web of complacency, "good-enough" - "fair-enough" mentality, fast lane, convenience and trend... even to the point of missing the best and worthwhile.

My mind is tired and my spirit is beaten. This is because I carry loads that are not meant to be shouldered, I fought battles that are not even worth the combat, thus my effort was just a mere scuffling and never intending.

Grateful with this realization -I humbled myself... willing to change, unlearn what is not right and focus on what is good and beneficial, valuable, and honorable to do and live life for His glory.
