Last month, I have a great experience with God.. So, I want to share my testimony on how God show HIS love and how He really spoke to me..
Actually, I've been praying for something and I really put so much effort on it. I pray, I fast, everything lah.. At that time, I really take my time to seek God's will. I claimed His promise... At one time, I really believe that GOD will answer my prayer, and I will get what I've prayed for.. Then, masa yang ditunggu-tunggu datang juga... jeng!jeng!jeng!... You know what.. God did not answer my prayer. I didn't get as what i have prayed for. The answer is negative ( Actually, I'm praying for my interview in the government)... I was like.... "God, how come You did not answer my prayer?.. Tuhan, Kau mungkir janji!" Memang betul kecewa lah... I cried for almost one hour.. Charles called me and try to calm me but no use.. I even shout to him and say " I hate God".. Charles almost shout back to me and asked me to stop it but at last, he asked me to take my time to pray. He said, I can cry before the Lord, I can complaint to Him but I have no rights to "marah Tuhan".. Then, I pray ( More to complaining)... After that, I go and took my shower and went to KFC (pigi makan puas-puas).. After I came back from KFC, I straight away go to my computer and open my email.. You know what, I received an email from my friend and the email was an article entitle "Never Give Up".. This article really touch my heart, and once again, I cry before the Lord... And the amazing thing is, when I look at when is the date and time of this email being posted to me, I was really surprised because the date and time was exactly during I was crying and complaining to God few hours before... And this article really answer my question to God.. before I Amen my prayer, the last thing I ask to God was " Lord, Tell me how I can trust You anymore?"
Ok.. You didn't get it hah?? So, I copy paste the article here ah..
One day I decided to quit...
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality...
I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
"God", I asked, "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"
His answer surprised me... "Look around", He said. "Do you see the
fern and the bamboo?"
"Yes", I replied.
"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care
of them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew
from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing
came from the bamboo seed.. But I did not quit on the bamboo. In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again,nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.
He said."In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I
would not quit. In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would not quit."
He said."Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared
to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant...But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.
I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."
He asked me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots. I would not quit on
the bamboo. I will never quit on you. Don't compare yourself to others.
" He said."The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern. Yet they both make the forest beautiful." "Your time will come", God said to me. "You will rise high"
"How high should I rise?" I asked.
"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.
"As high as it can?" I questioned.
"Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."
I left the forest and brought back this story. I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you. Never, Never, Never Give up!
For the Christian Prayer is not an option but an opportunity. Don't tell the Lord how big the problem is, tell the problem how Great the Lord is!
Heavens door open this morning, God asked me... My CHILD... what can I do for you?" and I said "Daddy please protect and bless the one reading this message.God smiled and answered ... "Request granted"
Then I found this song also. So, I share you this video from Yolanda Adams entitle "Never Give Up". This song has become my inspiration all this while.. I already edit this video by adding the lyric to the clip (hehehe)and post it to youtube.. Am just trying to develop my skill in video editing.. Hope this song can inspire you to move on as it has inspire me deep inside my heart..
WHATEVER YOUR DREAMS, BRING IT TO GOD AND TRUST HIM
