I want to praise and thank my Heavenly Father today. Wow! So amazing!

Last week and this week at work they have Christmas prize draws for people who have met certain targets. For CRC agents we had to do ten courtesy calls to customers and catch them in. Up to last Friday I had nine done with the one let being a customer who finishes work around 5pm but cos we finished 4:30pm last week Andrea couldn't get him.

I reminded Andrea to call customer on Tuesday which she did and my name was entered into the draw from yesterday onwards. Pauline from my team won the Samsung dvd sound system and a bottle of Moet =)

The draw took place 3:10pm today. I just treated it like every other day, every other draw. I just sat at my desk, typing away, getting on with my cases. Gary Irvine, Operations Manager, accounced he was going to pick a name out of the hat. Some people were watching, but I wasn't paying much attention, until I heard it was someone from Andrea and Alan's team - that's my team! So I listened a bit more, thinking what if he called my name? Yeah right, as if that'll happen! Then Gary said, "The winner is... Gordon So." Wow! Amazing! Me!! =) I stood up and walked towards the group of people at the draw.

Gary picked out another piece of paper and told me I won the mountain bike! Oh my gosh! Could not believe it! People clapped and I got a little red-faced. Gary said I could pick up the bike today, tomorrow or even next year! Haha! Also got a bottle of Moet.

I sat back down, full of smiles, prayed to God to give thanks for nice surprise then texted a few folks to inform them of the good news. =)

Later I arranged to take bike to Aaron's and Alethea's house for a few hours of safekeeping before I picked it up by car.

I thank God for the lovely Christmas presents He has given me this year. Mum can have the champagne. Hehe!
