So He Speaks Again

He speaks, like no other. Always hitting the bull's eye and yet with a tenderness that makes you cry. All you can do is nod in agreement; words of excuse are exhausted and no where to be found. All I can think of is: You know the deepest secrets of my heart. Those I did not share with a single soul. You knew, all along.

Echoing what Angeline wrote, it's a feeling that makes you speechless, in awe and couldn't stop smiling. Mind you, we are perfectly sane and checked! :) Just that we can't help it when we keep smiling.

He spoke through Steve A'Herne last Saturday night. When I felt physically worn-out after biking in the morning till 2pm, tripped and fell over injuring several parts of my body, with unproperly treated wounds, aching muscles, hungry stomach, sweat smelling body and mud covered legs accompanied by light drizzle plus a phone call from my manager telling me what I've missed out and should have done in my work. Man, I can tell you these can totally contribute to the points to compose a 'My Most Unluckiest Day' essay, like those we used to write in school back then. What more, we were late for service.

When Steve prompted the congregation to response in the altar call, Angie and I remain seated. But we wanted to be prayed for. So we waited. We were like primary school kids with our back pack in hands and following after Steve as he was walking towards the exit. God is so good. He wants to speak to us as much as we want to hear from Him, or even more so I reckon.

If you are feeling at this very moment that the prayers you whispered or uttered had been hitting the celling and bounced back to you, take heart. He hears and He knows even without you saying them. I suspect He likes to ochestrate the 'perfect' situation to answer our heart's deepest concerns. I am a person who can easily take things and people around me for granted. In that way, I will remember and be thankful. Remember His goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and love for me. The kind of love no human being possesses.

Christianity might be categorised as one of the 'religions' in the world. But it's all about relationships, of loving God and loving those He loves (yes, that's you if you are wondering). Please don't be freaked out thinking that it's all about rituals, if you are having that perception, you don't know how much you are missing out in life.

He loves you more than your finite mind can imagine. If you do not believe me, why not you test Him for yourself? See if you dare...
