The Lord is good and faithful

In retrospect, the Lord has been preparing me for His work since more than ten years ago. I started to become 'mobile' and independent when I was in my early twenties. First I was out for apartment training with the Navigators for one year. Next it was moving around from place to place every two to three years. And it was 'upgraded' to moving around in last than a year. It was "haiz! moving again, I hate moving!"

And now it is, 'oh... I am moving!' The thought of the hassle has become less intense and more easy going. Last year April I moved from Cambodia to Singapore(Hougang), and in Aug I moved from Hougang to Pasir Ris for three months and moved back to Hougang in November. Just this year, I moved from Hougang in May to Punggol. And in Oct, I moved from Punggol to New Delhi for two nights and then to Mussoorie for three months. After the three months, I'll be moving back to New Delhi. Hmm... looking at all these experiences I know there is this bigger purpose. I know the different people who helped me along the way with the movings and I thank God for them and I appreciate them a lot. And I got to meet and stay with many different people and learn to accept the different styles of living and be adaptable to different people, environment and the amenities in the area and make the most of life. God is good. I see His footprints in all of these. And the most recent ones that are so heartwarming.

I had been visiting public libraries to access internet ever since I moved to Punggol. That has not been a big issue to me because my working hours allowed me to be in the library at non-peak hours. However, it became a slight issue when I had to have attachment to my email. I then had a friend whom I could go to and I accessed internet in her house. There came a time where I felt bad having to go to her house and 'invade' her privacy. Morever the time to go to New Delhi became nearer and I had to access internet much more often. I then asked the Lord for a mobile broadband. I had no idea how He was going to provide but He did!!!

Out of the blue a friend called up to offer me to use her mobile broadband till I leave for New Delhi! I was exhilarated! For one I could have ease of use of internet at home at any time and for another the Lord answered my prayer in such an amazing way!

Another heartwarming event was that the Lord was so detailed that He cared about my concern in bringing cash in stacks! The church admin lady who passed me cash told me that when she was at the bank counter asking for big notes, the lady at the counter told her that there was no big notes that day! She was a little panicky because she was also concerned about the stacks of cash I had to bring with me if all the notes were in $50 notes. Then unexpectedly the person behind her came with the big notes to do a deposit! The lady at the counter then issued those big notes to my church admin lady! Wow! What a blessing!

I went in the bank about twenty minutes later and was in a queue. A customer at a counter about five people ahead of me asked from the counter lady for big notes for she was going to withdraw a big amount. The lady at the counter told the customer that there was no big notes that day, the biggest note that day was $50. Being about five people behind her made me want to leave the bank and head to another bank for big notes. However, something stopped me and caused me to want to pray about it. I prayed and asked the Lord to somehow and somewhere let me have big notes because it will be very cumbersome to have to bring small notes as I already have other currency notes to bring. And when it was my turn to ask for a cheque encashment, I specifically asked the lady (in a counter different from the customer about five people in front of me) for big notes and yes! she had both the big notes I asked for!!!

PRAISE THE LORD! He planned to such a detail for my good and ease of mind and ease of etc etc! Thank you Lord! ; )
