well.. these past few days had been on going for me.. praise the Lord that He answered our prayers.. from the coverage to mass E.. i realised a lot of things..

last week coverage.. makes me realise the Lord's goodness.. and His protection over me.. i thank God for His commandmt.. really really grateful..

and my birthday.. i received a lot of presents and birthday greetings.. really.. so touch by all of them.. it is really the tots that counts.. but the Lord reminded me that the greatest gift of all is still Jesus.. in the midst of birthday mood.. lets us not forget Jesus who is the Greatest gift of all.. :)

and the mass E concert.. it really blow my mind knowing wat the Lord can do.. alot of unexpectancy.. and there are 6 salvations!! praise the Lord!! and also.. before the mass E, everyone was busy with the preparation.. then mary and martha came to my mind.. suddenly.. something just impressed upon my heart that we shld pray and seek Him.. instead of us doing so much work.. of cos.. we need to prepare.. yup.. better to have a balance of both.. but then in some situation, i will choose to be like mary.. to listen and yield to the Lord.. =)

this week had been a fulfilling week for me.. more of spiritually.. and i really see the Lord's faithfulness and grace upon our lives.. im very convicted of that.. and i thank the Lord for how He had brought me thru 18 yrs of my life..

oh well.. learning to commit to Him watever im going thru.. even wat im going thru now.. well.. i guess it is another onion peeling period! thank God!! only thru that, then can we be changed from glory to glory.. and rem to give thanks in all circumstances to have a joyful spirit.. hee..

"Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
1 Thessalonians 5:18

Helen Keller was born in Tuscumbia, Alabama on June 27, 1880. At 19 months of age, she contracted meningitis. The disease rendered her both deaf and blind. Through the help of Anne Sullivan, who was partially blind, Helen started learning how to write and read.

Anne started teaching Helen the names of objects by pressing the manual alphabet into her palm. She learned to speak by placing her fingers on Sullivan's larynx to hear the vibrations. In what was seen as a miracle, Helen learned to read and write in Braille and became exceptionally proficient in the ordinary educational curriculum. She graduated cum laude from Radcliffe College. Despite her handicaps, Helen was not only grateful; she devoted her life to assisting the deaf and the blind. She toured the world to promote the education of the persons similarly disabled.

"For three things I thank God every day of my life," Helen said. "Thanks that He has [given me] knowledge of His works; deep thanks that He has set in my darkness the lamp of faith; deep deepest thanks that I have another life to look forward to - a life joyous with light and flowers and heavenly song."

Each of us has a special circumstance, a special hardship, given to us to draw us closer to the Lord.(TOTALLY AGREE) Are you grateful for the circumstances in your life? Today in prayer, give thanks to the Lord for the hardships in your life that you may depend more fully upon Christ's grace.

"I thank God for my handicaps, for through them I have found myself, my work, and God."
- Helen Keller

"But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
