Rememberance
This blog is titled "Rememberance".
This is not to remember an event that happened in my life, a special person in life but it is to remember all the good things that God has poured forth in my life. I can get so busy with life at times, especially during the weekdays; that when I get home, all I want is to rest and relax. I tend to forget that its He is always faithful to me; no matter rain or shine, He is always there for me. And like a typical Christian, the only times that I really seeked the presence of God is when things are not going well, where I realised I cannot do it on my own strength; where I realised that the situation is beyond hope.
Does that sound like you? I hope it doesn't because it wouldn't be too good if it does right?
As I was walking to meet the brothers yesterday after work from my workplace to dhoby ghaut, its a pretty nice walk; considering the haze is not as bad, just walking by myself; enjoying the breeze is pretty good.
God impressed upon my heart and He flashed past my eyes; my ns days and how life used to be then; my poly days and how life used to be then; the past dreams and wishes I used to have; the words I used to say.
Following that, He brought me back to my current life; where I am now and what I am doing. I am touched; really touched and just felt so much gratitude towards Him.
Gone are the days where I am struggling financially.
Gone are the days where I am a person with low self esteem.
Gone are the days where I am fighting the battle alone.
Gone are the days where I used to have small dreams and visions.
God has been so good towards me and I believe He has been good to you too. Sometimes I just don't realised it but when you paused and think for a while, you will be overwhelmed by all the good things He has done for you. This was what happened to me yesterday. Sometimes I grumbled and complained without realising the fact that no matter what happens He is still Al-Shedai.
He provided in the past.
He is providing now.
He will continue to provide in the future.
The past 2 weeks has been really good. I was blessed with the favour of my colleagues at work and for my personal life, things are really looking good. God recognises that I have an emotional vacuum that I am trying very hard to fill and the fact of the matter is; I know that once this void is filled, the potential that can be released is enormous. And the best part is He sends people into my life; manfesting a bit part of His neverending goodness; from time to time to me.
He knows I need friends. Friends who really know my heart. Friends that I can cry out to. Friends I know I can rely upon. And He didn't stop at just knowing my need. He met it. I had a good chat with kei last sunday and am really v blessed by the conversation we had. Even though we have known each other for 5 years, yet we always never fail to connect and communicate each time we have the time to sit down and talk.
Just want to say:
KEI & ZHI, THANK YOU SO MUCH for BEING MY FRIEND.
If you are struggling to believe that He will provide for you today, recall the times when you cried out to Him and when the times of provision; no matter how small the provision can be.
Just recall and remember that He was and will be your provider again.
