A Test of Faith
I finally realise why I felt do ridiculously upset on Friday (Feb. 29), why God caused me to feel that way, why God picked me up & rescued me that very night & set my heart in peace & joy... I finally realise. He's preparing me for today's Praise & Worship!When I was almost dying of sadness on Friday, God brought the song, Breathe on Me, into my mind... I kept humming it. Went to search on that song & realised I have the song in one of the CDs. As I was listening, I cried & cried out to God to teach my heart & heal my soul... hungry for God to breathe a fresh breath into me & take away the negativity I was feeling.
The next day, after I was alright, God linked me from Breathe on Me to You Chose the Cross. Told Shawn about the change on Saturday morning.
Even as I led in worship, I was ministered by God in the way He ministers to those who were need. Not only was my song choice in line with Pastor Isaac Chan's message, as he preached I realised the points he mentioned was how I felt throughout the agony time I was in & they are:
- Expect God to test our faith
- Focus on God's promises
- Depend on God's provision
- Seek to glorify God
- Look forward to what God has for us
Amazed... Totally amazed how God speaks. :) I could not help but kept agreeing & nodding throughout the sermon. I'm honoured by the fact that this test comes so that God can promote me to do greater things in His kingdom.
