A BREAKTHROUGH!!!I met up with 3 colleagues today at Bishan Junction 8, planned it yesterday with my colleague, Lanly, from Ipoh, who came back to settle some stuff. At first we wanted to meet up at Ang Mo Kio, where she's staying for the weekend but decided to change it somewhere nearer to me. Oh well, hahah, Bishan is a 40min bus ride away from my place. But what was most wonderful was God's plans today for the people I care about - when I was on the bus to Bishan, I passed by Bishan St. 11 and I was thinking, "hey, isn't this where Zhihui's staying?" (Zhihui's my best friend since Sec 1) and I was going to meet up with her on Friday but then cos of MINDS, I wouldn't be able to accompany her to her doc's appt at TTSH on Friday. So I decided to sms her to see if I could visit her. After blessing one of the colleagues and chatting and all that, I walked over to Zhihui's place.
Then we had a long talk and I told her about the 100k blessing. Oh boy it's really good that God planned for me to pop over at her house today lah cos she actually heard about it from a colleague but she got the wrong message. So I explained to her the entire 100k blessing event and I was kind of scared that she'll say "It's ok lah, I don't need it." But hahahh God is SOOOOO GOOOD lah!!! Indeed, He has gone before us to prepare the nation of Singapore even before we took that step of faith to bless His people. Indeed, He has made the ground soft for us to harvest.. which is so true of what happened yesterday during the TCS walkathon (when we reached the Padang at 7.30am, the grass was wet with soft mud and some of the kids were disgusted by the mud lah but God was reminding me, "Hey I've made the ground soft for you to harvest." So I wasn't that irritated by the soil lah hahah.) Anyways, back to today, Zhihui wanted to be blessed!!! WOOOT! And after choosing those areas she needed, I just prayed for her and indeed the Holy Spirit was there with us and He guided me as to what I should speak and He touched on the areas that were really important to her and was concerned about. After the prayer, I opened my eyes and I thought I saw a bored expression on her face but after another 2 mins, I realized that she was actually starting to tear and she told me the things that I said were how she felt. I was so affirmed by what she said cos it is indeed the Holy Spirit at work in me! And she also said that I was the only friend who cares about her so much, who knows what she is feeling without her having to tell me. And I was thinking, "God, indeed you know our hearts, every thought and every feeling." I was then reminded of Jeremiah 1:5 and Psalm 139 and I showed her the verses there and then. I could tell that she was indeed touched by His love for her and I believe that in the days to come, He's going to bless her so much and continue to show His love for her. WOOOOTTT!!!! I want to celebrate this!! It's a breakthrough for both me and her! For me, it was this feeling that even though I've already blessed quite some people, but I couldn't seem to connect any of them with God and Zhihui was the breakthrough for me. More importantly, for her, it is a big step towards Him. I truly believe God will bring her back despite her present concerns. HEEEEE!!
