Guidance & Counseling Co-ordinator

Career development is a lifetime process of acquiring knowledge and experiences, and identifying one's talents and interest, and using them for the benefit of oneself and other people.

 

A career becomes interesting and enjoyable if it suits a person's interest. A career choice should therefore be based on a person's interest, ability and talents as much as possible. Parents and guidance should not in any way influence their field of study or to choose any career against their interest. It should be noted that somebody can do something and everybody can do something but everybody cannot do anything or everything.

 

God in His own wisdom understands the economic principle of division of labour and has accordingly assigned a role to every individual to perform with their talents and gifts, which will collectively result in the growth of his kingdom. The following Bible verse should therefore be our guide in choosing a career. There are different kinds of gifts, but the same spirit.

 

"There are differences in ministries, but the same Lord. and there are diversities of activities, but is the same God who works in all; for to one is given the wisdom through the spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same spirit, to another faith by the same spirit, to another the gifts of healing by the same spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills. 1 Cor. 12: 4 - 11"

 

The failure to discover one's talents, interest and purpose in career development leads to frustration and eventually failure.
