Four Years in the UK – A Sudden Turn

January 29 marked four since my family arrived in the UK. What was meant to be a quiet moment of reflection and celebration quickly turned into something quite different. On that day, I received formal notice from my company that I would be made redundant due to business restructuring. It was a sharp, unexpected pivot.

At first, I wondered if God was playing a joke on us. But perhaps it was His way of marking a new beginning. In the Old Testament, when people encountered God in a profound way, they often raised a stone of remembrance. Maybe this was my own Mizpah moment — to commemorate an ending and prepare for a new chapter.

This day has become a symbol. Instead of only sadness, it is a reminder of God's sovereignty and timing. While I didn’t get the celebration I had envisioned, I did receive a new sense of direction and humility.
