Just wanna thank the Lord once again for His everlasting faithfulness.
Indeed, He
is and always will be, the
El Shaddai, the All Sufficient God. The One who is More than Enough for us.
I still remember that day when Josh told me how sad and depressed he was...he had had a very rough week indeed.
One,
his car was saman-ed by DBKL.Two,
his car got clamped at McD.Lastly,
he lost his Final Year Project just when the due date was the following week!Anyone could have been in despair if they were in his shoes.
We were supposed to go for CG that night when he told me about what happened. The lost of his FYP was the final blow.
Right after that, he totally lost the mood to do anything. Just wanted to sleep it off in hopes that this will all be just a bad dream.
But i knew that the
best thing to do in such circumstances was to go for CG. Cuz when you take your focus off yourself, somehow it helps you feel slightly more relieved
.It give you less time to dwell on the state of your own problems.And
as if to challenge our faith and perseverance,the rain started pouring so heavily that we got stucked in a jam while on the way to Ee Yan's place.
But i knew in my heart that
God would honour our deeds~Finally arrived there at almost half an hour later. oops!
We had discussions about Contemporary issues such as abortion, test tube babies,etc.
I was really enjoying the discussion.hehe. But i could also sense that he was so worn out and upset that he wasn't even paying attention to the discussions.
Fast forward to 2 hours later,
he sent me home. But right before i got down, as promised, i said i would wanna pray with him about the whole matter.
Cuz the Bible says,
'Where two or three are gathered in My name, there I will be in their midst.'So i
prayed that God would increase our faith and that the project would be
found the next day, which was Saturday.
By the way,
Josh's project was due on Monday!We
only had 2 days to find it. And he hasn't even completed the project. Talk about anxiety.
We all know in human abilities this would have been impossible. But His Word says,
''What is impossible with man is possible with God''.Luke 18:27We just have to believe it!
Remember, God said, even if you have
faith of a mustard seed, you WILL be able to move mountains. As in, physical mountains like Mount Everest okay.
And mustard seeds are really the tiniest seeds ever.
They are as small as a fullstop.Yes, like this,
...See how tiny they are? (yes, i've seen those seeds.)
And God didn't say 'You might' or 'You probably can', but He said,
You WILL.And when God says something, He never, i repeat,
never goes back on His words.
His words will not return to Him void. *******
And so after praying, we could only trust God for the best. And just totally and wholly believe we would be able to find it. For without Faith, it is impossible to please God.
And guess what?
The next morning, Josh texted me to say that his friend, Tham had found his project back in college!Miracle miracle!
I was working at Starbucks that time, and was reading a book cuz i was so free.. But when i read that sms,
i was so elated that tears began to flow.I must have been deemed a lil crazy but i didn't care. Cuz once again, God has proved His faithfulness.
I just couldn't help praising Him there and then! ( i dunno where my manager went that time..but surprisingly, as if in God's perfect timing, he wasn't anywhere near me.)
Cuz if he saw me with tears in my eyes, that might have worried him.haha.
Just wanna praise God wholeheartedly.
The Lord reemphasizes to me that He is indeed a prayer answering God.He always is. Eventhough He might seem to be distant at times, but He is attentive to even the slightest whispers.
*****
On a separate note,
just wanna
praise God for healing my migraine today! yay!I only vomited once.
Normally it would linger for the whole day...with vomits in between. And my head would fell like it was going to burst out of the excruciating pain. But thank the Lord, after praying and acting on His scriptures about healing, i was healed even during work itself.
But i still came back early to rest. =)
God bless ya'all!
Taste and discover for yourself that the Lord is GOOD.God is not a respecter of persons.
So if He can do it for Josh and me,
He can too, for YOU. =)
