Last year on this day, I stepped out onto the mission field with my family. Last year on this night, i cried myself to sleep as I saw what life was going to be like. Today, one year has gone by... Tonight, tears once again wells up my eyes as I give thanks and praise to my Abba Father! "You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance" Ps 66:12 Through this year, He's brought me through deep waters. To feel and understand His heartbeat. I still miss Singapore. I still miss my dear brother. I still miss my friends. But i've definately not missed out on experiencing God. How thankful I am for a God who knows me! My every need, my every thoughts. May this recent answered prayer be of an encouragement to you. Never doubt God. Ask in Faith. I've been praying for another motorbike for a long time. It's been difficult to travel around with one. When we go to church, we've to make 3 trips there. Now, its been especially troublesome as my schdule for teaching clashes with my Fathers. How will God provide? I did not know. I just prayed. Days passed, Months passed. Finally one day, i heard a passing comment. A missionary was going up to the mountains and was leaving her dog and motorbike here! WOHO! "But what makes you think she'll lend it to you?" True enough, i heard nothing and decided to forget about it. Then, last week we had a farewell party for her before she left in 2 days. She talked with me about giving her dog away. I secretly wished she talked about lending the motorbike. I really wanted to ask her but I wanted it from the Lord. So i kept silent. We had a great night of food and games. I however, was really praying. I knew if nothing was said tonight- no motorbike. Well, it was time to go! That's it God. I guess you'll provide in a different way. I was already walking out the gate by now. "By the way, would my motorbike be of any use to you?" I turned around... looked at her. Oh God you are indeed AWESOME! He wanted to test me to the very end. My friends, thanks once again for keeping us in your prayers. |
