a God beyond our comprehension
thank God for a wonderful time of fellowship with brothers/sisters-in-Christ over the past 2 days. met up with my poly CF friends for dinner last night and like i told phyllis, m real glad i went. i was very encouraged to hear abt wat some of the CFers are doing now...like phyllis, who was my law & mgt senior, is no longer doing anything related to law either. she has chosen to go into social work...melissa who did apparel design & merchandising, has decided to go into health science cos of her desire to help ppl, instead of doing 'perfecting' work (tt's wat design is all abt isn't it?) all her life. it's wonderful to know tt there are many ppl around me who have chosen to invest in the lives of others as well :) met up with clarence again today at holland v and i thank God for an enjoyable time with this brother-in-Christ who really cheered me up. the whole day at sch has been sad for me, after hearing a piece of bad news :) thank you for seeing me home, next time if it's earlier, i'll invite you in for coffee/tea/milo/milk..and we'll eat at the COFFEE SHOP next time okay? ;)
The bad news (from the human's point of view)
at work this morning, rev ong came to me saying he had a piece of bad news. elder vincent tan had just collapsed and passed away...my immediate response was "don't joke with me, rev ong". but i very well knew rev ong wouldn't joke abt such things...to put it simply, i couldn't accept it. talking to auntie joyce abt it, and tinking of joel and joshua, i stood there and cried.
i would very much like to ask God "why"...but if i could comprehend His actions, He wouldn't be God. i know for sure, tt God never makes mistakes, we just have to wait for Him to reveal to us His reasons behind it all. for His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts...altho it's not easy, i pray tt joel and joshua would remember tt all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord...and be comforted in knowing tt their beloved father is now rid of all pains, worries and sufferings of this unpleasant world, safe in the arms of Jesus...
