Miracles in life

I must have blogged about this topic a million times; but I'm never tired of doing it, because I believe that they deserved to be acknowledged. Yes, everyone needs encouragement and have the right to feel good about themselves. Yes, we all do. =)

I'm really blessed with seriously some awesome and amazing friends! I realized that my life is constantly filled with so many friends! From kindergarten right up to university. Each one of them have made a difference in my life. The more I think about this, the more I get excited because God is totally in work in my life.

Today in IVCF I met a new friend, Tricia; and instantaneously we connected. Awesome! =) I felt blessed from the conversation we had. And she encouraged me today! I hardly know her, but the amazing part was that I was blessed today because of her. It lifted up my spirit and it made me want to bless others too; which I did. =)

I have this joy in me and I just feel like going around and "sowing" into people's lives. I just feel like giving them hugs; and take them out and just hang and then let them know how much I care for them... I don't really know how to describe this feeling I have; but yeah, I so want to encourage people - especially those close to my hearts. Therefore, my friends, take heart and know that you're NOT forgotten because I care for you. Yes, you! =) But above all, take heart and know that Jesus LOVES you. Now, that is amazing ey? ;)

*Special note to these friends:- Alison, Marijka, Georgia, Margaret, Robyn, Annabel, Ashley, Mary; and those friends in IVCF: "Maybe I never take took the opportunity to tell you this, but if you're reading this, be rest assured you've made a HUGE difference in my life; and I am just so blessed by YOU!"

IVCF today was great. I was totally consumed with God's awesome power. Even before it started, I sensed God's awesome presence. The worship songs led by Alison were really powerful and it really ministered to me. I was refreshed by the Lord tonight. =)
*Because of IVCF, it made me feel so much better; and it eased my transition to my new life in Victoria.

As for Thursday night, my Bible Study had a potbless at my leader's house. And it was just awesome! ;) Once again, home cooked food and the blessing of having a "proper" dinner with meaningful fellowship. =) Like my time at Margaret's house on Monday, I felt this "homeness" in Alison's place. It's just so amazing to have dinner together like a family. Now I truly appreciate all the times my mom made me sit and have a family dinner. Now I know why; and I appreciate it. And right now, I MISS my family dinners; and I pray that in the near future, I can have more "family like dinners" with my friends here in Victoria. (Btw, I cooked Nasi Tomato [Tomato rice], Nasi Lemak [coconut milk rice]; and curry chicken) Mummy, you must be proud of you ey? hehe... ;) But I know that I have so much more to learn from you and Mama... =)
