Obedience
I praise God for allowing me this opportunity.Obedience
At 1am today, God moved, chains were broken and a friend of mine came to know Christ. All this happened at a playground near my place.
I almost missed the opportunity. I was on a bus, on my way home from school. It was already 12.30am. I could have just gone home to rest instead of staying to talk to him. But my spirit was tugging at me and I decided, for once in a long time, that I would choose to love someone who just needed a friend.
Obey. That was all I needed to do and God did the rest. He gave me the words. He gave me the courage to pray for him. He gave me the discernment to know what to ask and say. He came all the way down to be with someone who was struggling to find his purpose in life. He cupped His hands to cushion us and to cradle our fall. He who created this universe loved an individual life so deeply and personally.
He knows everything at the same time. You cannot limit God. He is unfathomable. He is omnipotent, omniscient. He cannot be described in full.
We cannot even confine God with the our pitiful attempts at describing His mysterious orchestration. Beautiful coincidence, chance, happenstance, luck, cosmic forces. Words will never be able to encapsulate His absolute sovereignty.
Even now, I am in awe of what God has done today. Throughout the day He was preparing me for that moment. I couldn't see it then. It is always in retrospect that we see God's hand. We're way too slow for Him. Haha.
So praise God. All glory to our Almighty God, for He loves. We thank you Lord, for all You've done in our lives. Amen.
