Living Waters

Filed under: Reflections

This is how I feel. Like I am drinking living waters each time I am at the Rock. 

Some pointers:
Pastor Joshua mentioned the law of serendipity–that when we are right with God, circumstances will be right. He said we look for formulas instead of looking to Jesus. Upon reflection, I thought that God is indeed creative. He blessed his people in so many different ways. There is indeed no one channel where His blessings are bestowed from. 
What impressed upon me tonight was the phrase "anchor of your soul". Its strength will be tested during the storms. 
We will certainly have troubles in this world. It is through these dark times that others can see the glory of God. In Him, we have peace. 
On a separate note, a revelation to myself as Ps Joshua was preaching on Heb 6. I was particularly drawn to verse 10 "show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises." It helps shed some light on the tough times we go through: to continuously strengthen us towards the end where the promises await us.

Sweet Simplicity

A sweet message from one of my best friends,
Live your life pleasing God. It will simplify your life. 

Rain on me

Filed under: General

Just as the bus turned into Jurong East St 24 where my school is, the sky darkened. Looked like a scene from some alien movie. The wind was picking up speed. Litter was swirling in the distance before me. Skirts, hair, files, shirts were flapping in the wind. I was hugging a big paperbag of about 15-20 books, arms-abreaking, praying hard that the rain would be merciful and pour only after I was safely tucked in my cubicle. Just as I hoped against hope, the rain poured forth with a vengence. The rain smelt refreshing. I made an arrangement with my student to shelter us both with my umbrella. If it could indeed give us and my books both sufficient cover. By the time we reached school, i looked like I just stepped out of the showers. My student looked relatively dry. She had underestimated how much cover I actually needed. We had a good laugh. I was just glad my books were kept dry. If it wasn’t for the fact that I had to go to work I would have played in the rain. I did that once. It was awesome having the rain splatter onto your skin, feeling each cool drop break up into tiny droplets, dancing off your body! 

M VP’s family shared of a rainy afternoon when the whole family laid on the lawn and enjoyed the rain pelting down on them as they laughed and (tried to) talk. Awesome!
