I will give you what you need


It has been a long and trying time for me this past few months as I struggle to find life's path for me. I know deep within my heart that God has an awesome plan for me which I have yet to realise.

Recently, things have been kinda falling into place slowly for me. I was offered a tutoring position of which I will embark on my journey beginning with some training courses. Though this is a casual position but I know that it would be rewarding and an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most. I had my apprehensions mainly regarding the financial side of things, but somehow God presents another opportunity which if I am successful, would allay my fears and at the same time allow me to pursue my vocation of educating.

I was further affirmed when I read this phrase from this particular lady who was successful in building her business,"He gives me what I need". How very true indeed. Though I do not know the outcome of that particular opportunity, I am certain that God will give me what I need.

Lord I believe that you will provide for our needs. May I be your instrument in this world and may I allow myself to be led by you. Thank you Lord for meeting my needs.

My Plan for you


I was sitting in church over the weekend and noticed a young boy dressed in a suit. He was to receive his first holy communion during mass that day.

I recall when I had my first holy communion. Back then it was like the next step in my catholic upbringing, and it did not mean much to me. I was not able to identify with receiving Christ in person through the little wafer given by the priest.
It was not until in my early twenties did I begin to relate with this truth. I believe that God was slowly forming me through the years before allowing me to experience that truth within my heart and being.

Today, as I go through a very difficult and trying time in my life, I try desperately to cling on to this believe that God is slowing forming me before revealing His plan for me, each day at a time.

If you are in a similar situation, don't give up. I pray with you that we will find out His plan for us in His time.

God's Fidelity



I was reading one of the reflections on Living Faith a while back and I was struck by the sharing on God's fidelity. The author highlighted God's faithfulness to us everyday, through our darkest moments to our joyous moments. He is with us through every waking moment and never gives up on us.

I have been thinking alot about this sharing and how my life has shaped to become how it is today. I realised that God has been the only constant through all the changes that has been happening in my life. I feel really blessed and thankful for His faithfulness and have always made it a point to thank Him for that no matter how my day went.

As I embark on another new day, I thank the Lord for His faithfulness and pray that He will lead me to where He wants me to go. May I be patient with Him as He is with me. I pray the same for all of you.

May we always be mindful of God's fidelity and reciprocate it every other day.
