Well, I attended the El-Shaddai Conference today. And i have quite a bit of take home from it. However, i want to blog most about Immediate Application. Because after learning from the Book of Job how the wilderness experience allowed Job to meet God directly, i have an opportunity to apply it.
I got a stomachache immediately after the conference ended. I went toilet 2x. the second time i went to the toilet, i left my handphone on the toilet paper dispenser in the cubicle. i washed my hands and left the toilet. then i patted my pocket and realised my phone wasn't there!
so i rushed back into the toilet. i already had a bad feeling but still i went in and back to the cubicle. just then a guy was going into the cubicle. i dunno why i didn't stop him but i did peek into the cubicle before it closed and i thought i didn't glimpse it there...
i waited for the guy to finish and when he opened the door, i asked him if he'd seen a phone in the cubicle. he said no. i went in to check and yup it wasn't there...
so i turned but the guy had GONE! i rushed out of the toilet but i couldn't find him!
and that's that... i lost my phone.
so the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away... Blessed be the name of the Lord!
Then, just a little while ago, Joel bumped the back of his head against the corner of the change table. He'd jerked his body backwards too far. of course he wailed but after calming him down and praying with him (together with Rena of course!) he was ok...
now we're just on the lookout for any abnormal signs like vomiting or swellings etc...
so more negative events...
But we still Praise the Lord! For He is sovereign and has all things under His command.
We are His children and He will watch over us!
Glory be to the Father!
