Looking back & giving praise
A friend of mine asked about God & Christianity when I was about to leave the office. Then I shared with her my blog entry on my turning moment with God--when my GCE 'A' Levels results were released. Even as I scanned through my entry, my heart was overwhelmed with God's grace & goodness. I know these few days has been frustrating for me, but when I scanned through the entry, God's love just enveloped me... :)This morning, my colleague said God brought me to his mind when he was at church yesterday. This was what God gave him to encourage me:
- God is in control all the time+God loves us & wants the best for us hence NO WORRIES
God has the LAST and FINAL say! Not kings nor presidents nor any man can change that (Dan 2:47) e.g. Though it was the King's command, Dan & his 3 amigos went thru the fiery furnace but turned out fine due to God's control over the whole situation - Sometimes what we want may not be wat God wants EVEN if our intentions are noble
-- Moses wanted to go promised land but God did not allow moses to enter.
-- David wanted to build the temple but God said, no, not now.
-- Paul wanted thorn to be removed -
-- ' And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness . Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. ' - 2 Cor 12:9
What more can I say? God loves me more than I know... Thank You, Lord. Help me to press on. :)
On 6:10 pm, Cheryl lays it all at the feet of Jesus.
