God is Great! Double Grr eat!
It was a day full of wonders today. Though, I felt rather guilty for not listening to God yesterday night, ignoring Him while I did my work.

1) There was tingxie today. As I was looking and revising through the words before the test, I just noticed these words which seemed prominent. So I read them out loud. They came out for the test! Yippee! I didn't get very high, but I thank God all the same... I might have puffed up otherwise.

2) There was also a History test today. Very very scary test it was... As I was looking and revising again through the History textbook before the test... I just sort of noticed this section on the contribution of the immigrants... so I managed to commit it to memory. The content came out for the test too! Though I'm not so sure if I'll get very high...

3) We're going to do a presentation on Infinity for maths lesson, me and my partner. But we hadn't really prepared for it... it's not really done yet... but my partner had, earlier on this week, lost her voice to laryngitis. So we managed to get an extension using that, to 2 weeks later! Phew.

4) My mum was supposed to pick me up today at 4pm, but at the last minute she called and changed it to 5 pm. And then my friends left the classroom, leaving me alone. I think God was trying to tell me to read more about Him, so I grabbbed the chance and read through the booklet: "Prayer: It moves mountains". I thank God for giving me the opportunity to do this. But I slept for 10 mins after reading it.

5) My mum's group at the office won Gold today! For an quality circle (QC) or something like that.

6) As I was waiting for my mum, I noticed my handphone had only 1 cell of battery left. Recalling what I read earlier about praying and believing, I asked God to restore my handphone battery. Then I switched it off and on again. It was restored to 3 units! Whoa.

7) We were going to my sister's school to pick up a book of hers. Then at the gate, my mum was stopped by the caretaker, who talked into the walkie-talkie to the General Office. After a few seconds, the answer came loud and clear: "Jing Lai" (Come in) So I really thank God for allowing us to get in.

It so happens that it is my sister's school's Thanksgiving Day tomorrow... So I wonder if God made all these possible, to give thanks to Him.

How do I know all these happened with God's help? God is in charge. Things happen because He allows it to happen... and sometimes He might be wanting you to pray about it to change it. Most importantly, pray to Him all the time, asking Him what course of action you should take. And when you pray, believe that it will happen... it is so that often the things that you pray for like healing, to be happy, for wisdom... they are in accordance to His good and perfect will... for the good of humanity, so that glory and honour are brought to His name. However, God never puts His power on display, nor does He give special demonstrations for the entertainment of the vulgar.

Matthew 17:20
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

However,

1 Corinthians 13:2
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

I confess, I do have my ups and downs, and my strengths and my weaknesses too. But I have been cleansed with the blood of Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for us! So whenever the devil comes to you and reminds you of your past, remember, you have been cleansed from your sins, and salvation is there for you in heaven! Hell was made for Satan, not humans... It is the last days, and Satan is doing all he can to drag as many people as possible down to Hell with him.

But Psalm 23 says,

1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

God is Great!

How do I live the Christian Life?
