Another Way

This post is based on a highlight experience that I had happened this evening. This evening was a very strange evening for me. I was all ready and prepared to go to work. I attended work at my second Dominos Pizza Store for thirty minutes. It was such a short shift because the manager contacted the store and spoke to one of the other employees mentioning about me to go home because the store was so quiet.

I accepted the fact that I was finishing early and come home. As I left the store and went into my car, I knew what I needed to do. I immediately called the other Dominos Pizza Store if they would like me to work there tonight. When they answered my question, the answer was no.

Within a few minutes of driving away from the store, I called. I did not understand why they would like me to go home instead of someone else. I did not complain to Heavenly Father and ask him "Why did this happened to me?"

While I was driving home, I called the Ward Missionaries if they had any appointments for me to attend to and be a member present. Their answer was no and they referred me to contact the Sister Missionaries in Eight Miles Plains Ward.

Shortly after, I contacted the Sister Missionaries in Eight Mile Plains Ward and asked them if they had any appointments for me to attend to and be a member present. Their answer was no. By then, I felt rejection. I rescheduled and organised to spend some time with them on this upcoming Sunday.

I still felt down and I tried to cheer up by calling a few Sisters from Relief Society in my ward if they would like to go to the Temple and if I can help babysitting their children while they attend a session. I was able to get a hold of one sister and the answer was no.

Eventually I got home, I saw one of my housemates was about to leave to go to the Temple and I would like to go to the Temple too. I was all excited but when I found out, I needed to stay home and look after one of my other housemates. I got upset again but I kept quiet again.

I think after all of these answers of "no's," I eventually worked out myself that Heavenly Father would like me to be home and not working tonight. I definitely did soften my heart eventually and thanked myself for coming home when I did.

I retaught myself a valuable lesson and that was "A connection between Heavenly Father and his righteous children is incredible. If someone come into my path of life and tell me to come home early, I need to act accordingly and work out myself what was the main lesson that I am going to learn from this experience.

For an example, Heavenly Father always provides another way, and most of the times, that another way is always better way than what was planned."

Stay Tuned until next time.
