biking with the wind blowing me...

yeah, hoping that my mind makes some sense in writing. my sense of black and white in matters relating to life and thoughts are becoming blurred - i hope not by the influence of new age but rather by the influence and my human understanding of the grace of God. i want these recordings to become a reminder of God's faithfulness in my golden days.
So, welcome my friend, let's learn together. I beckon you.

Faith Journey - Part 1

It is odd how when I am thinking more and more about how to get to YWAM, things happen. I guess this is the best time to 'reach' me since I am most aware of finances or the lack of it at this point of time.

This morning my rear tyre burst. It blew up not into pieces, but it blew. Thank God it was not the front wheels, otherwise an accident could have occurred. Well, I did not know it was a burst until I decided to drive in to Petronas just to make sure it was not something that got stuck on my wheels.

Found it flat. Thank God for this guy who came to help me. I have a spare tyre but it is a smaller one. No complains man. If he did not come to help, I would have had a hard time changing the tyre myself. If I did not have the tyre, I would have been stranded on the NKVE. All the ifs...

More and more I know that it is impossible for me to save up for YWAM. I mean, how can I save up for a faith journey? I thought I could save up some money from now till July next year. Don't think I'll ever have any since these other expenses are taking first priority now.

First, there is the computer problem, then now it's the tyre. Wonder what's next. Lord, I get it. You HAVE to provide for every little expense I need to get there then. Every little expense which also includes the now expenses. I ain't going to depend on myself. I know I still need to learn that lesson though. *smack*

List of things to thank God for:
  • Preserving my life
  • Sending me help when I have not asked yet
  • The spare tyre
  • Common sense/gut feeling to get the tyre checked (I am blur)
  • A chance to bless someone else in return now
  • The faith journey that is hard yet need to be taken
  • Youths, who keep me real and whom I want to impart to all my life
  • And Carol, whom I am chatting with right now :)
YWAM, here I come.

in gratitude,
gracey

Grace, it's ok. Your Daddy in heaven knows what you need. It's good to know of your faith journey. I suppose that when you are taken through the passage that leads you to your destiny, it always begins with simple little steps, with God always watching you. For your heart and intention to go YWAM, He will know what's best for you, because He's good all the time. Thank Him for today, it's really great to be alive for Him. God bless!
