and last, but definitely not the least,
let us continue praying for xiu juan lao shi!
firstly, pray that every thing that happens, or is done,
is in God's plans.
we can only leave her in God's hands now,
because, we are not able to do anything.
sometimes, I'll have thoughts that God might take her away from us and I really really dont want that to happen. then, I'll have selfish thoughts for God to not take her away from us and I'll practically beg God not to.
then God "enlightened" me.
He made me chance upon Mark 11: 22-24.
the passage:And Jesus answered them,"Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain,' Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart , but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. I was very amazed and felt peace in me.
it's like telling me that God answers prayers.
so I appeal to all of you, that no matter what, bring every little thing to Him in prayer.
cause God, our heavenly Father, responses to them.
and let not our faith be shaken.
for we know that our Father is full of mercy and grace.
He is also the almighty.
so dear darlings,
do not fret! (:
HEY! if anyone of you out there need us to pray for you, please kindly tag on the tagboard (:
and if yall need to share, can always approach anyone of us in chimes (:
even if we are very busy or have o-levels, we'll try to make time for you and provide the listening ear you need (:
CAUSE WE'RE A FAMILY! (:
and remember, He will always be there for us.
and we will also be here for each other, darlings! (:
JIAYOU EVERYONE! :D we can do it(:
DID YOU EVER TALK TO GOD ABOVEDid you ever talk to God above
Tell Him that you need a friend to love
Pray in Jesus' name believing that
God answers prayer
Have you told Him all your cares and woes
Every tiny little fear He knows
You can know He'll always hear
And He will answer prayer
You can whisper in a crowd to Him
You can cry when you're alone to Him
You don't have to pray out loud to Him
He knows your thoughts
On a lofty mountain peak
He's there
In a meadow by a stream
He's there
Anywhere on earth you go
He's been there from the start
Find the answer in His Word
its true
You'll be strong because He walks with you
By His faithfulness
He'll save you too
God answers prayer
-LOVESS, xiao jun (:
