Of God’s Amazing Works

Current Mood : Tired, but contented
Song In Head : Hillsong – This Is My Desire
Study : 5 pages of P1. Honestly.

Yeah I should gear up on my studying. Right on it! Tomorrow ok ar? Now me wanna tell u guys about God's amazing work in my life these few days.

1^st of all, my mom had managed to send me £500 today. Just enough to survive another month ahead. Guess what… for the month of Oct my expenditure ngam-ngam ho reached £495. Keng le… coz I walk to school ma. Bring own lunch ma. Decline shopping trips / hang outs / eating out. Muahaha. Dork. Nerd. Tak boleh kah?

The money came just in time, being able to pay for me insurance, phone bill and me rent. Thank you so much mom… I promise to study hard and find a job as soon as I finish my exams! Thank you Lord for providing us our daily bread sufficiently!

2^nd of all, my church friend Delia had helped pay for my groceries last sun as a birthday gift ( coz I kept declining to go for a girl's day out with her and some church friends… I can't even afford the bus fare to go! ) .

3rdly, I made a total of £25 as of today from e-bay & trading. I sometimes do feel bad coz this is not proper business, selling your own stuff / buying cheap stuff from ppl and hiking up the price to other buyers. Like… I don't know. It doesn't feel right. Anyway, I'm broke and I needed the cash before I had obtained the money from mom, you see. Thank you Lord for directing me to meet good people and not letting me fall into the hands of evil buyers. =)

Last but not least, one of my buyers today, May, brought me to her church cell group. After negotiating the price few days ago, she called back to say that she felt an urge to help me. Something was telling her that I have some difficulties, but she doesn't know what it is, and would like to help out. Today, after meeting up and selling the stuff, May invited me to her cell group. All 4 groups from her church is having a combined cell meeting so there's a big party going on and some testimonials from church members. (Testimony is when u testify to everyone the amazing stuff God had done in your life).

One guy testified how God healed his backbone problem, another lady about how God healed her suicidal behaviour, and the list goes on. This is a Chinese church, with their members comprising of China & Hong Kong youths… But guess what, they sang some English worship songs, and 1 of my favs… Heart of Worship. "I'm coming back to the heart of worship… And it's all about you… It's all about you Jesus"

Amazing, isn't it? How the Lord bring individuals together… God must've given her that urge to invite me. I told her bout my problems and she said she'll uphold me in prayers. Thank you May ! I am filled with the Holy Spirit's burning passion once again and this feeling is really unexplainable yet amazing. Bliss =)

One of the church members, Steven dropped Charm home coz his house was on the way back. He connected his iPod into the speaker and out played another fav of mine…. "This is my desire… To honour you… Lord with all my heart, I worship you…"

"I have this song on my phone as well!" I exclaimed.

"Really? Haha… I like that one too… But ahh my fav among all is this…" and he switched to Shout To The Lord. I was like… "Hey, that's my fav when I was in high school !"

We've quite a lot in common. Chew on this. He's got a suave British accent. Ahhhhh *swoons* . Manager position. Hmmm. His background is pretty complicated, parents from China, stayed in Vietnam, then moved to HK. N then now in England. He said I've got a Singaporean accent. Well I'll take that as a compliment. =D Some of u might beg to differ, but objection overruled. =P

Anyway, Charm would like to express a BIG THANK YOU to all her friends for the prayers and support. I really appreciate all the offers for help and I'll cherish our friendship to infinity and beyond.

All in all, I'm glad God work things out in a good way. He is alwiz faithful, alwiz knowing, alwiz providing. We just have to call out on Him and acknowledge that we need Him to steer the ship of our lives.

I would like to end the day with a Bible verse dedicated to all. Yes, even to you.

Matthew 7 : 7-8

"Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and the door shall be open unto u.

For everyone who asks, receives; he who seeks, finds it; and to him that knocks, the door shall be opened. "

AMEN !
