In Christ Alone...

In Christ alone I find peace and tranquility. I also find the satisfaction of contentment and the joy to give. Recalling the SEA Conference when I housed 6 Christians from KL (8 initially but 2 single brothers went over to Darren and Esther's instead), these days when I provide lunch and dinner for my neighbour's 3yo son as she is 2mth pregnant and too exhausted to cook or take care of him, as well as the ability to teach a single mum sister's son without charging her any fees, I feel the blessings God has given me to be able to share what I have with the less fortunate. I may not be well-off financially, as a matter of fact we struggloe every month to make ends meet, but I praise the Lord for providing me with enough to cover my heavy medical expenses and yet provide for others. I really believe that God gave me this illness for a reason, at least it was this illness that resulted in me bearing one fruit last year after the Good Enough Parenting course. I am sure there are other reasons for the illness and other ways God can use me, I am just waiting patiently for God to unfold His plans.

Lord, I'm ready, please use me for your purpose.

Amen.
