God's Moving Hand

i realised that my blog has been getting more and more self and event centred, so here's to add to the rare heartfelt sharings in the list of entries.

NG14 had our last unit 242 this wed (27/9), not tat we r disbanding, but there was a restructuring and now NG14 is a subdistrict, there was an extended time of worship as alan led 2-3 songs on top of those tat were earlier prepared, its really a spirit-led time, when we sang Shadow of Your Wings, the lyrics struck deep within,


My spirit rests in You alone, You're all I know
Embrace and touch me like a child, I'm safe in You

i cld vividly see God's mighty hand embracing all of us, and speaking to us like children, was quite convicted abt it tat i prophesied abt it in faith, been quite long since i had the courage to do tat, struggled for quite some while in silence during the prophesy time actually, din have the faith to believe tat God wld use some1 like me to speak His word, but then again was reminded of the truth tat God can use anyone, prayed for faith to speak up and i finally did, felt tat God really desired intimacy with us, desiring to see the child-like faith in us, to see us put down our pride in our own abilities, knowledge and experiences and embrace Him like little children

on top of tat i shared my testimony of God's faithfulness, its really to honour God for His work, the unit had long ago prayed for me to have a 8-5 posting but chances seemed very very slim and i was totally prepared to not see it coming to pass after i was initially posted to 46 SAR, but all the struggles during tat period was hard, friction and conflict arose in my CG tat i was sometimes on the brink of giving up, felt very stressed and tat no one cld identify or understand me. i'm some1 who values fellowship highly and i'm always willing to spend as much time as i can with ppl, but due to the constraints of NS, i really cldnt and it was painted out by some ppl more as i din want to, which really hurts me, to the point tat i was totally disillusioned, and i cldnt hold it back anymore during one of the CG @ boonlay min hse, tat emotional outburst wasnt wat i wanted, but it did made things clearer to everyone, and i sort of moved on from there, and i guessed i passed tat test and so God allowed me to have this new 8-5 posting at MINDEF, it was really quite unexpected as chances were very slim and the way in which it came abt was quite miraculous in nature. well this is just the 1st part to the testimony.

cos me being able to attend the unit 242 and sharing my testimony was in itself another testimony, my office was actually having some event coming up on thurs and fri and i was supposed to help move equipment and set up things from 4-8 pm on wed nite, initially i shared abt this to some ppl and asked for prayer, but i wasnt very expectant abt it, my faith was strengthen only in the morning by a sms from Kinwee, which said "Aye. do not worry. today you will knock off on time one." my initial response was a cynical smirk actually, but i guessed the sms did encouraged my heart, so thru the day i carried tat burden for something to happen. and indeed, i was out of the blue given some other tasks and plucked out of the team tat was gonna set up for the event ard 5 pm, and i managed to knock off just 30 mins late at 6 pm, was really encouraged by it and cld felt strongly the Hand of God moving in this situation cos the way things happened cld not be explained in human logic based on the characters of the ppl in my office, they collectively acted in a way not usual to them as per my observation and knowledge to make this possible, this was the strongest prompting for me to share my testimonies of God's faithfulness to me even though i wasnt as faithful to Him, but i just had a tiny mustard seed faith. May all glory be to God, my abba father and Jesus, me forever faithful redeemer.
