Sorry hasnt been posting anything recently. Has been visiting hospitals to collect survey forms for my fyp. Has been having lunches with friends, and meetings with people from different areas. Life's busy but fun~
God is as usual a God of surprises~ Three small incidents happened to me recently. And i feel glad to be able to share it.
1) There is this pilot working for SIA flying SQ flight who recently joined my cg. He is someone who has backslidden for some time and one of the members brought him into the cg and he has been coming for services since then, except for the few times he needs to fly overseas. Recently, when having dinner with him and just sharing about our life experiences and the time when we first came to church, he passed me something, what looked like a small handmade envelope containing some stuff. I thought that it may just be a thank-you note of some sort to thank me since he will be flying off one day before Valentines time day and we wouldnt be able to see him until next week. I put it in my pocket and didnt pay much attention.
While travelling back in the mrt, I put my hand randomly into my pocket and fished the envelope out. INside, I saw a card indeed and to my surprise, a sum of MONEY! No one has ever blessed me with money in such a manner. It is like what Pastor mention, people just sent you an envelope and when you open, tada! inside is the $1000 you prayed for and it is the exact amount that you need! WHile mine is not that dramatic and powerful, it was still enough to make me totally touched by God through him.
It says:
Dear YOngSiang
Thank you for your friendship and for always “照顾” me during church. Thank you for sharing with me your prayer request. As I was praying, God reminded me of James 2:15-17. Thus I hope you'll accept this "angpao" from me and remember it is God who is our Jehovah Jireh.
SIncerely,
XXXX
All I can say is, God is great and He never fails to answer prayers!
2) One of my new year resolutions will be to have greater family cohesion among my family members. I am so glad my mum is so cheerful these days and she has changed ever since chinese new year when I went back Malaysia to bai nian with the family. Last time, she used to call me and scold me for not telling her I will be going home late but now, she calls me and talks nicely to me and reminds me to go home and eat homemade porridge! What a wonderful mom! Thank God for moms.
3) Got a new tuition assignment last month to teach P6 boy. I applied with agency and a parent happened to see my profile. Reason being, I can commit to teach the boy and his name is Aiden, pronounced similarly as mine.They are christians too. And God answers my prayers to getting a tuition assignment after not having one for some time already...my wallet shrinking since then. hehe. Hoping for more students to come flooding in. Ah seng, if got sure pass u ah! NO Worries...hehe
YEA! Happy Happy.
Valentines day coming~ To all the attached ones, Stay happy and sweet together. To the unattached ones, stay happy for a sweet one to come too. Happy Happy~
