God In Action

When we pray, our God moves. Even mountains. And I mean it literally this time.
Narnia is coming up and I kept focusing on asking my school friends but Josephine never crossed my mind. I haven't talked to Josephine for such a long time, and never really remembered her, until I was on the way to work on Thursday.
Thinking that it would be awkward to just ask her to Narnia directly (after not talking to her for months), I decided that I would just date her out for dinner. But when I was so prepared to do that, my handphone flashed low battery. Even though I know that my phone would probably last long enough for me to send that one message, I decided to shove the idea till later.
I switched off the phone and decided that I would message her when I finished work.

I finally finished work at about 9 plus nearly 10. I switched on my phone to see if Serene messaged me anything... and instead, I saw....

A MESSAGE FROM JOSEPHINE.

It's amazing firstly because I haven't heard from her for months!
Secondly, I wanted to message her this morning and I shoved it!

To me, it was like God saying, Yeah kid. I said ask her.

I was suddenly given courage to just ask her directly if she had any plans for Good Friday morning, inviting her to Narnia.

You guessed it.

She said YES.

No delay. No extra questions asked. It was a YES.
I'm not sure if you understand that kind of joy I had when I saw the yes. I'm not sure if you understand how miraculous this whole entire incident was. But this is God's way of saying, not what you planned kid. It's what I planned.

Sometimes, when we pray that our friends would come to a certain event, you never know if God is actually leading you to someone else. I am glad that this time, God gave me a reassurance by getting Josephine to send me the message. It's so important to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit's leading.

When you pray for the mountain to move, don't forget your other mountains. They might just be moving. (:

Finished? Or beginning?

It was the last day of the attachment at the sports school. Truly inspiring. It's just basking in God's goodness for me. I am ready to run the race.
