:) my favourite verse for now.
thanks Daddy, for 'forcing' me to read my daily devotions :D heheh You knew how much i need it, every single day. thanks man!
Isaiah 55:11
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
:) thank You Daddy, You even remember the prayers that i forget, the prayers that i think will never come true, the prayers that i even lost faith in.
actually come to think of it, prayer is talking to God. and you know how powerful that is? doesn't matter where, doesn't matter when, doesn't even matter why. God hears, God knows, God remembers, God fulfills.
and in fact He doesn't just make it come to pass, because the Bible says that "it shall prosper" and yeah, that basically means that everything i tell God will happen and will be fulfilled in a really really really goooood way.
it's mind-blowing to think how a God so big and so magnificent would actually come down to my level just to talk to me, just to hear my prayers.
do you even know how much i actually mean to Him, for Him to do all this just for me? do you know how much He loves me for my words to mean so much to Him that He would actually remember them?
come on. it's like, as much as i love the favouritest of my kids, i know i'm definitely not the best teacher, and as best as i want to love them, many times i don't even remember alot of things about them.
but think about it. i'm not a perfect teacher but God is the epitomy of Perfection! there is a reason to why He is called the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings you know!
and can you imagine? once the word goes forth from your mouth, God hears and keeps it in His memory. even the softest sigh or the littlest comment, the smallest complaint. everything. He hears everything.
i don't even listen to everything my mom says! or my closest friend, or favourite kid.
:) and He understands me.
how amazing can this get right? how cool can this God be?
sometimes we wait so long just to see one dream come true, and when it finally comes true we're so thrilled, so happy, so.. refreshed. as if your faith just soared to greater heights.
can you imagine, if you get so happy at your dream finally coming true, what about Daddy, who has been the One planning the surprise all along?
i mean, i really honestly love planning surprises for people, or even making them little gifts or cards just to see their happy faces when they recieve the gift :)
even though it takes time to complete the card or takes money to get the present and stuff like that, it makes me happy why? only because i know how happy the reciever of the gift will be :)
and throughout the process of making the card/present i get really excited too, just thinking about the person you're gonna give it too, just picturing the smile on that person's face.
how about God!
God, who is altogether lovely, who is perfect in every action deed thought and motive, who is perfect love, who is totally and completely for me, who is head over heels in love with me, who gave up His very Son for me.
can i even dare to begin imagining how happy GOD is when planning these small little surprises for me?
it's like His full time job! He spends all His time thinking of the next way to bless me, the next way to make me happy, the next dream of mine that He can fulfill for me, the next way He can prosper me.
if i, being imperfect, know how to be happy in seeing someone else happy, HOW MUCH MORE GOD! and i am the object of His love leh!!
:) o Lord! want You to know You make me happy :) hahahahahha :)
thank You Daddy for Isaiah55:11.
:) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
