it was no coincidence

there were several times that i felt so low. however, each time i was having my quiet time in church or attending sunday services during these lousy periods, i always felt that i was being spoken to, be it from the readings or the homily given by the father. i picked up the bible last night. something that i havent been too disciplined with. i was thoroughly amazed by the reading that was presented to me. i cried and i had this enormous urge to share it, which i did. something that i dont quite normally do, only with people close to me and whom i know wldnt be uncomfortable with the sharing.

today was the dinner w ey and this clashed with the mustard seed cocktail party. i decided to give the party a miss cos i just thought that business function took precedence. so while reading the bible last night, the second reading was simply perfect for the occasion. i acted on my urge and emailed the gang, though i know of people who arent christians in the emailing group. this was the reading- 2 Cor 9:6-11

"whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. each must do as already determined, without sadness or compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. moreover, God is able to make every grace abundant for you so that in all things, always having all you need, you may have abundance for every good work... the one who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness. you are being enriched in every way for all generosity, which through us produces thanksgiving to God."

isnt this truly amazing??!!

HE always speaks to me, in his own way, in his time. i cant escape his presence at all. im so glad that HE has held on to my little hand and has not given up on me. im so lonely right now but i know i cant say that because i have him.
