felt prompted to come here to give thanks to the Lord. i know it's wayyyyy delayed... but better late than never!
this is really a season where i can see God moving in ways i can't imagine. i can still rem crying (literally crying) out to the Lord every single night after i've learnt about my aunt's condition. i couldn't accept the fact that lung cancer can happen to someone who doesn't even smoke. and what more a stage four cancer... to me, it simply wasn't fair. i kept telling God i didn't know what to do because there isn't much time left.
never would i have imagined God using the colleague of my aunty Q (who's divorced from my uncle, and whom i've never seen in a long long time) to bring a fellow believer from City Harvest Church to share her cancer experience with my aunt. i mean, these are people whom i've never met in my entire life. and God can actually use them to touch my aunt!
aunty Q led my aunt to say the sinner's prayer and praise God, she has since received Christ. :o) it has also been 2 weeks that we've been attending chinese service together with my brother jeremy, connie and little ian. :o) it has been 2 weeks... but i'm claiming that there will be many weeks ahead to come. :o)
i'm really really really very encouraged. and my heart's so thankful... you have no idea. every single time i think of how amazing God has been to my family, i can't help but break down in tears. not in tears of sadness or sorrow. but in tears of joy.
i'm ashamed to say that i've always limited my God. but He has always proven me wrong time and time again... and i'm always left standing in awe of what He has done in my life. this season has been a really difficult one for me... one where i've been in the lowest of the lowest of spirits. i dunno how many nights i've cried my eyes swollen and felt so helpless. i can't even explain the feeling of knowing that your loved one may leave you anytime soon... it's a terrible feeling.
but i wanna thank God for giving me a wonderful kor who has always been an encouragement to me. he puts things into perspective for me, and makes me see things in a larger picture. without him, i think i would have been a complete emotional wreck.
i wanna thank all who have kept my family in your prayers. i'm most appreciative... really. especially to the sisters who have watched me cry and watched me feel so crushed, and then were there to lend a shoulder, to pray, and to give me a hug when i needed one so badly. thank you :o)
my aunt's testimony has been the greatest encouragement to me.
and i hope this post will encourage you to continue to keep your family in prayer. i believe they will come to know the Lord one day.
cos our God never fails. He is Hosanna. and He will save.
....
anyways, hope you guys like the video... have a blessed week ahead folks.
with love! :o)
Verse 1 I see the king of glory Coming down the clouds with fire The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes I see his love and mercy Washing over all our sin The people sing, the people sing
Chorus Hosanna, hosanna Hosanna in the highest
Verse 2 I see a generation Rising up to take the place With selfless faith, with selfless faith I see a new revival Staring as we pray and seek We're on our knees, we're on our knees
Bridge Heal my heart and make it clean Open up my eyes to the things unseen Show me how to love like you have loved me Break my heart for what is yours Everything I am for your kingdom's cause As I walk from earth into eternity
