Five small testimonies... :)
Just really want to thank God for five things today:
1. For blessing me with a wonderful piece of reading - that I can contribute to my project group... because I was trying this week to find academic readings on the industrialisation of Japanese anime, but for one strange reason or another, I cannot find ANY suitable readings from the Central Library... till today during my project mtg, when my project mate mentioned that he got his readings through the library's digital e-journals...
So I prayed a little prayer, asking God to help me find a few suitable readings so that I can contribute some readings to my group and hopefully score higher on the peer reviews. I found only 2, and the 1st one was very abstract and pretty unreadable... BUT! the 2nd one was exactly what I needed!!! And it was very long, comprehensive and got statistics some more too! :D Hallelujah! So I got only 1 academic reading in the end to contribute, but the reading was one of the 2 that my group liked. :D And had a really fun time with my project group mates too - really thank God for that too!
Praise God! He is so faithful - as always... really touching to see how He blesses us so that we can be a blessing to others! amen!
2. For God helping me encourage my dad in a timely way today - when I reached home, he was sick with flu, and was feeling depressed... so I remembered what Ps Jeff shared abt praying for others as a means of encouragement... so I prayed with him for his healing and that he'll experience God's presence during this time. Thank God that I can have the opportunity to bless n encourage him! :D
3. For today's sermon on encouragement - it really encouraged me a lot - I had a clearer refreshed understanding of what encouragement is... and how God encourages us thru PEOPLE as well... and about praying God's best for others - I learnt what I can pray for when I pray for my fellow CG members... for them to experience God's peace, understand His love - I remember "Jesus loves me, this I know, for my Bible tells me so!" - and that God will strengthen their faith and that they'll experience and receive His amazing grace in their lives.
And also for Bowen's spontaneous scribbling of an encouragement msg to me... it REALLY touched me a lot! Thank God for you so much, dear bro! :D
4. For the wonderful time of "Jesus, 5 Loaves, 2 Fishes, Amen, Holy Spirit, Hallelujah and Heaven!" game tt Joyce taught us! Hahaha... we really can't stop laughing when we did the "Heaven" thing...
5. For this blessed blog! :D
