GOD IS GOOD

Things to Thank God for:

1. His amazing Grace:

we were reading Mark 4:35 about Jesus Calming the storm during pastorate on Sunday and I believe the common agreement was that we are always like the disciples. " Do you not care that we are perishing?" they said to him when they woke him in the middle of the storm. I asked myself, I'm always like this. Why do I still question God when I know He has a plan and that it is all part of His will? He who created the heavens and the earth must be bigger than the puny situations that I go through. Why then do i still do that? and I constantly find myself laughing at myself after everything has blown over, at my stupidity at believing that Things might not have worked out. Jesus said to the disciples " why do you still have no faith?" not in a manner of anger, but rebuke. Same for us, Why do we still doubt out Faith in God?

In service, Bill Johnson spoke of the exact same verse. It has to be from God. He said, but remember, the disciples WOKE Jesus. Same for us, we must wake Jesus with our prayers. Only then can he work through us. He did something for the disciples that they could have done for us. Jesus doesnt always want to do things FOR us. He would, but He also wants to work THROUGH us.

2. House

Dara Megan Aditi and I settled out house today. I firmly believe this was a blessing from God. At a point where we were all so stressed out by this nagging issue, He intervene. I prayed hard for this apartment. And He gave. I read today 1 Timothy 4 and it said "For everything God created is Good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving. Because it is consecrated by the word of God and Prayer". I pray this over the house, that I receive it with praise to God for it, and that it has been blessed to us because of prayers. and The word of God now blesses it. :D

3. The beautiful weather

It has been great. warm, sunny. I wonder how I'm going to survive back in Singapore. I did dream that I cut my hair really short. But dreams may often be the opposite of real life? HAHA. :D perhaps. But praise God. And I'm coming home soon!

4. Support

People who are praying for me, Mom and Dad who have been really supportive despite my flaws. :D People in church who has been praying for me.

God is Good, all the time.
