how great is our God
today's just one of those days when you feel that God is the best thing that ever happened.
number 1my mom has been helping me in finding the best new zealand package for the four of us - alv, es, leon and me. she was about to fax over her credit card details to the chan bro angency to pay the deposit when she called me to reconfirm. i just got back home from school then and was tired. so i was speaking in an extremely irritable manner. i think that hurt my mom a lot. she didnt even need to help but she insisted in helping. and her
dumb son wasn't sensible enough to appreciate it all. so she just hung up and didnt bother to fax. i just hate the feeling whenver i hurt my mom in some way. i wanted to go to her room this morn to apologize.. but she turned out to be happy and chirpy about it. she said it was God's purpose for me to make her angry then. i was like "?!" haha. apparently.. there was a package that was cheaper by a total of $2000! if she faxed it over then.. there would be no refund. thank God.
number 2today's worship was amazing in a sense that i felt God immensely. and what elder spoke of spiritual worship today spoke to my heart. i dont really remember what it was exactly that was impactful at the moment.. but it sure did.
number 3well.. my friend has been in a relationship problem for years now. i call it the "different-god-syndrome". typcial: he loves his girlfriend. she loves him. BUT.. diffrent faith. sigh.. being a Christian myself, i would have encouraged him to step aside from it. but before i can even say something like that he would be on the verge of breaking down. there was a point when it became too dramatic for me that i got rather pissed and wanted to shout and ask why on earth he didnt get a Christian girlfriend in the first place. (haha.. sorry dude.. but really) but well.. i guess we all know what love can be like - random, unpredictable and even unbreakble.
SO.. today he called and screamed down the phone,
"SHE ACCEPTED CHRIST!!!!"
okay.. heres the honest part. i didnt know what to say man. didnt feel elated. didnt feel disappointed. felt.. confused? i mean.. has it become a faith or just a another requirement to perfect that relationship? i dont know. if.. and i just mean IF its all over.. will she keep the faith? think about it man. whatever it is.. maybe God has been expectionally graceful. i know you're a happy man now. just remember to be happy in Christ.
