Gone were the days when I spent hours on the phone chatting with my friends. But sometimes all it takes is a few text messages to communicate our concern for one another. Besides, we all can use some words of encouragement to tide us through the storms in life.
Text messages with A this morning.
A: How have you been?
Me: I’m the same happy kid.
A: The world will be a happier place if there’s just one happy person.
Me: It’s easy cos’ I have a happy God! No matter what happens, I know that He is with me and everything is under His control. I pray that you’ll have that love and assurance too.
Although it appeared that I had encouraged A, I was deeply encouraged too. In the afternoon, I heard a song by Chris Tomlin for the second time. It echoed the essence of the text message I had sent to A and I know that God is using the song to seal that love and joy in me, deeper than ever before.
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing
tabehodai “食べ放題” in Japanese literally means eat all you can! Follow me as I search out true satisfaction for my hunger.
Psalm 107:8-9
Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men, for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.
