God is with us though we do not see

The same two things have been occupying my mind these past few days. Yes, you got it. It's the car search and PhD scholarship. I tried to find that balance between praying and discerning, and relaxing and taking chill breaks, without much success. God seemed to be out of town, and my mind was constantly divided with situation flashes of meeting up with car sellers and with the Uni Professors. It's like my brain was tearing apart and my prayers seemed to get no response.

Looking back now, I must say that I was the blind one. God is certainly with us though we do not see. He was in fact guiding me all along with my meeting with the Uni Professors, where all my questions were answered and I was reassured that I should give it a go. Ok, at least I'm 80% sure...

As for the car search, it's still surreal for the both of us that we've clinched a good deal with a Nissan just yesterday... We viewed a few cars towards the weekend and we both felt that He was going to bless us with a car soon. In the words of Angie: "I can smell it coming..." I was like fervently praying that we can get the Nissan for a good price, such that our finances would not be too strained. Trust me, it's not a good feeling to be in limbo... I felt like a school kid again, waiting for the teacher to hand me my report book... but I'm sure we have all gone through that...

I just want to shout out: "Thank you God for being with us every step of the way!" May our eyes be always fixed on Him as we tread through life here on earth.
