He wasn?t even shortlisted for an interview by the organisation which was then one of the rising stars in the labour firmament. Those were days when it was like he would never get a job. Then he went solo after stints in paid employment, and only a decade later was competing in a major technical bid with the bigger names, including the organisation he was once unqualified to work for. His company won. Despite the frustration which made him wonder if he was forsaken in those early years, God had a masterplan, and remained patient with him till the fullness of time.

?He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and he hath set the world upon them.? ? 1 Samuel 2:8 (KJV)

There is a future for the one who may not matter now
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
