I am so grateful and thankful that I have come to accept the Lord in my life. When I think back of how God has been working in my life, I know for sure God is real.
“How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing”
(From the lyrics: How Can I Keep From Singing)
I have so many things to share on how great God is.
When I was in my kindergarten, God came into my life (but I never accepted him back then since I was so young). However, I saw how he worked in my life; I know He is the one for me.
(Let me fast forward the time)
When I was in my primary 3, someone really special came into my life. She was my primary school best friend and childhood friend.
My childhood memories are special because I knew a great friend like her. Our parents knew that we were the best sisters.
We would often go to each other house to play. She would teach me to play the piano. We will pretend to be “环珠格格”. We went to dance classes and we were the best dancers. Her mum would make French toast and Campbell soup. We will jumped on her bed to reach the stars on the ceiling. We did so many things together and created many beautiful childhood memories.
One of my birthdays, she gave me a book “More Bible Stories for Children” and the book is still kept in a very good condition with me now. That book means a lot me. It was because of that book, I came to know the gospel. It was her who brought me to officially know what Christianity is.
After we graduated from primary school, we lost contact. I searched high and low for her but to no avail. I looked for her via internet and through friends but I always failed to find her. I cried to sleep in the night too because I lost someone who was so important to me. It was extremely depressing but I never once had the thought of giving up in finding her.
I prayed for seven years. I know that God hears me and, He finally let us reunite last year. The way we finally got to reunite really caught us by surprise.
Today, it is her birthday and I would like to dedicate this special post to her.
Dear Lord,
I thank you for blessing me with a great friend like her. I thank you for working in our lives and open our hearts to accept you as our personal Lord and Savoir. I thank you for letting us reuniting together after so many years. I thank you for keeping her safe and sound. Thank you, Lord.
I pray that she will have a blessed birthday and many blessed years ahead of her. I pray that you will continue to keep her and her family safe and sound. I pray that you will shower her with the many blessing you have for her, Lord. I also pray that she will remain strong and faithful in you, Lord.
Lord, I commit all of these in your most precious Jesus name. Amen.
