Thank You, Lord
God has been very gracious in giving me a new job today. Starting next week, I will be a personal secretary to the president of an accounting firm in downtown Tokyo. My work will consist of answering phone calls from overseas, translating Japanese/English e-mails, simultaneous interpreting when foreign clients visit, and … <drum roll> … teaching the president how to speak English. At this point, he speaks none whatsoever. It’s my job to make sure that by the end of February, when there’s some huge conference for an international accounting network, he can speak basic English and hold conversations there. I have no idea how things will turn out in the short time I’ll be there, but it’ll be very challenging and very interesting, if nothing else.
One of the best things about this job is that it’s daily, but it’s not full-time, which means I can continue teaching most of the students I have now.
All this has happened in an incredibly timely manner. I didn’t even look for or apply for the job. It sorta fell into my lap by “accident.” God has provided and worked things so well, down to the smallest details (which I won’t bore you with), it is amazing.
