What an exciting weekend (extended) it has been! If you have been following my blog, you would have know that our church started a campaign to bless 100K people in 1 month. 3 days to the end of the campaign, we are about 22K short, but in the 3 days, we managed to bless 30K people to reach a total of 108,835 lives. Yes, we call it lives because each of them represent a precious live that we want to bless. God works in miraculous ways!
I am able to do my part and reach my target of 20 people despite some major procrastination in the beginning. You see, I am not a man of big faith, so when the church called out to us to sign up as part of the 5000 warriors to bless 20 people each, I dismissed the idea and gave myself excuses that it is impossible for me to do it. So 2 weeks went by and I went for a prayer meeting in the middle of the campaign to encourage one another to push 0n. Seeing the many testimonials from other on how they went out with little faith but committed the whole thing to God, and they receive wonderful results.
God than prompted me to realise that it is not me who can do it, but “with God all things are possible” (Matt 19:26b). So I summon up my courage to sign up for the campaign still believing that I can bless 20 people despite been 2 weeks late. God has been gracious and on the last day of the campaign, just 3 hours short of the ‘closing time’, I managed to pen down my 20th name in my prayer booklet. Praying for them daily has improved my relationship with Jesus and I am glad that I participated.
And you know, when you bless others, you yourself will be blessed. And I fully experienced this in the last few days. The biggest news is that my younger son, Darien, who is 16months old now, has been finally cleared of his condition. Some of you might have know that my son contracted UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) since his birth. He has to endure many test since birth, some to heartache to mentioned. But since 8-10 months ago, his condition has improve, but the only problem was that one of the kidney is dilated, causing the 2 kidneys to be of different size. This is still a cause of concern even though it is very mild, as any worsening of the situation could be bad. Even the insurance agency was so paranoid about it that it decided not to offer any cover for ALL the critical illness and for the same premium, they will only cover him on death and total permanent disability. This cause us to be very upset as the doctor has mentioned to us that the condition is very mild. Our only hope is that he will be totally healed and yesterday, when we went for his review, the kidney ultrasound result came back very positive and he is totally healed and is officially discharged. Praise the Lord!
The blessing did not end there. Will share with you again what is the other major blessing that we received, also yesterday. Double blessing (åŒå–œä¸´é—¨ï¼‰! Double joy!
