brief update
well, it's been a week full of...i dunno lar. on one hand, i've had more miracles and seen the hand of god working in my life this week more than usual, but on the other hand i choose to feel miserable at times and bothered by my problems...but i'm glad He comforts me....and wow god really provides....
amazing miracles coming to fruition this week:
- god has provided my funding needs for the mission trip....in abundance!!! this sun my pastor told me the church wud support me (financially) fully...yes, the whole amount of sing dollars (n summore my church is in jb, so that amounts to more than twice the amount leh!) n also this week i have had a couple of friends contribute to my funding....hence the "abundance"!
- i PASSED my ad module!!! the one i was doomed to fail! wow i really felt humbled and yet grateful by His hand in this....for i knew i was not worthy of it....but then again i was never worthy of anything the Father gave me, and yet He still gave....
- god has provided me comfort in time of sadness in the form of human friends (see previous post)...instead of me looking for them, which i wasn't, he made them bump into me! i never even arranged to meet them or anything this time....the second time this happened, which was today, i was about to sit down, when i saw a familiar head on the other end sitting down on the other bench. i come over and find that i was right..thanks brother. i was about to feel low in spirit, and it really helped that God provided you just at the time when i was about to crack. later after both occasions, i felt, man, god really does listen to me...he really does care for me...and i also felt how real He was though those experiences.
also, this verse keep sticking in my head, since the last time i posted...."and He who calls you will do it, because He is faithful"....i don't remember which part of the Word it came from, and i don't know exactly what it means in relation to my life, but it is an encouraging thought indeed. and for this week, Hebrews 12: 1-14 (see previous posts) has been my constant encouragement booster and strengthener in living my life every day. somehow the verse never really left my head the minute it got stuck in there when i heard it at a fren's church.
