Faith Noodles

31/8 God always teaches us a lesson when we go through pain. In God's economy, nothing is wasted - not a single tear. I learned that God always goes before us to prepare the way. I learned that if we are diligent enough to seek Him and pray, He will really lead us to make the right decisions - and later, we'll find out that it was undeniably the right one =)! I've learnt that He gives strength to the weary and we can always trust Him to meet the needs of people we care so much about. I learned that He is indeed Jehovah Jireh, OUR Provider. =) He puts people in the right place at the right time. He enables you to REJOICE when it hurts, because you know, He holds the future and you know, the joy of the Lord is immutable, undimmed by circumstances. He provides friends along the way to carry your burdens, watch you cry.. how blessed I am.. :') I've been going to the hospital a lot lately. It's like my second home. And I'm learning SO MUCH from the kids ther...

:,) I have the best little sister in the world! Look at a text she sent me. I felt myself melting into a little puddle of water when I read it :,) "How was your exam. i am sure you did fine. I remembered to pray for you and remember that you can do all things through christ who strengthens you. I love you so much and do not study to hard and remember to take breaks and have dinner. I love you so much." Thank you for her & grow her, Lord. I can't wait to get home and give my little sister a hug!

Psalm 23 1 The LORD is my shepherd, (that's relationship!) I shall not be in want. (that's supply!)  2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, (that's rest!)        he leads me beside quiet waters,(that's refreshment!)  3 he restores my soul. (that's healing!)        He guides me in paths of righteousness (that's guidance!)        for his name's sake.(that's purpose!)  4 Even though I walk        through the valley of the shadow of death, [a] (that's testing!)        I will fear no evil, (that's protection!)        for you are with me; (that's faithfulness!)        your rod and your staff,        they comfort me.  5 You prepare a table before me        in the presence of my enemies. (that's hope!)        You anoint my head with oil; (that's consecrat...

Just when I need Him Jesus is near Just when I falter Just when I fear Ready to help me Ready to cheer Just when I need Him most.

19 New Year's Resolutions (more like Mid Year actually) 1. I will spend an afternoon in the children's department of my local library reading books I loved as a kid. (Enid Blyton! Nancy Drew! Archie comics!  *breaks into a big smile*) 2. I will watch the cartoon show that used to be my absolute favorite three consecutive times on the same day. And make my sister watch it with me. 3. I will show up at a party with a gallon of ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup and sprinkles, and announce, "Sundaes for everybody!" 4. I will sing in the shower. 5. I will quack like a duck at least three different times in different frequencies during a day of my choice. 6. I will spend one Saturday morning playing at my old kindergarten school playground. 7. I will look in a mirror and make goofy faces until my face hurts from laughing at myself. 8. I will buy a 1,000-piece puzzle, remove one piece and give the puzzle to someone who absolutely loves puzzles (and ...

“If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities." (NLT) Luke 16:10 Lately, this verse has been coming at me from all directions - like when I'm going out the door, taking the steps, when I see rubbish on the floor - it just comes! I really feel as though God's challenging me to be more faithful in little things and I can think of a few little things I have been putting off for awhile now.. them being: 1. BUY A MOTHER'S DAY GIFT 2. REPLY THREE LETTERS (hand-written) 3. Call up Study-Link 4. Go to Grafton to ask a few questions 5. ASB - check account and call up 6. My Education assignment *inhale. exhale* This also means other small things like taking out the trash even when I don't feel like it. This means I need to make an effort to be a better sister and to be home more often so I can spend more time with her. I also need to be a bet...

Note to self: FINISH blogging by 845. This is so beautiful.. Isaiah 55. I was just captivated by it. I went for a bible seminar today on how to  love and study  (two words that are not normally seen side by side in my vocab :D) the bible. Contrary to popular belief, the bible is  not   a book that bores you out of your wits!  It's  far  from that. We gotta get a bit more  flirtatious  with the bible - when we find it boring, we are at fault - we aren't approaching it with the right attitude, we're not expecting it to speak to us and we don't recognise that it IS GOD'S WORD. If anything.. the Bible is life-changing! it has made me LAUGH out loud, DISSOLVED me into tears, CHANGED my life, and BROADENED my perspectives more than any form of philosophy will ever be able to do. And I mean what I'm saying.It has authority, lays the foundation, a or rather THE fountain. One will only know it's price when we're separated from it - yet so many of ...
