A reminder by the lil sparrows

Last weekend Terence and I went for our jog at Bukit Gasing, we took an alternate route back. Instead of walking through the jungle, we walked on road. On the left were tall retaining walls with PVC pipes sticking out of them. Sparrows flew in and out bobbing their heads as they watched us walk by. In an instant I was reminded of how much He cares for us.

We are living in very critical times. The economy is riding on waves, our planet in peril, wars breaking out, terror rising… Really, the uncertainties are countless yet one thing that remains certain is God and His word. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Both Terence and I have been little bumps, whether at work, in ministry or life - but God has never failed (not once) to work a miracle in every situation. The amazing thing is, He just doesn’t turn situations around and allows us the easy way out. Instead He works a miracle in us so that the situation doesn’t take the center stage, instead God does!

While not painting a rosy picture, those miracles didn’t fall out from the sky and into my lap. Admittedly there were moments I complained, questioned and worried unnecessarily. And in the midst of my darkest valley, I learned that the two most important (yet most difficult) things to do were to PRAY and PRAISE.

Those lil sparrows were a great reminder that our lives are in His hands.

Go ahead and read Matthew 6: 25-34... it'll leave you in awe once again!
