The night that i spoke up...

not too long ago, we celebrated All Saint's Day in church on the 1st of Nov.

Sitting in the left wing of the church again brings back lots of fond memories. 4yrs ago, on that same night, I was having quiet time in church, feeling tired from meeting all the different guys in my life and unable to "find" the "right" guy on my own. I spoke to the Lord and asked Him for His opinions.

I knew that if He had wanted for me and Ad to get together, He would provide the ways and means to do so. He just have to say YES hee... soon enough, things fell into place and we got together.

On that very night when we first talked about our "feelings", we were seated in our car, running the radio through the conversation... then as I was going to leave, I realised that I cannot start the car's engine!!

OMG! I thought that was a sure sign from God that "ooi! u siao ah? what are u thinking of??"

But Ad's faithfulness in God shone and we prayed together for the first time for God's hands on us (to get the car started....) and it worked! YES! the car's engine started right after that prayer!

In sharing our story, I hope to share the wonders of joy, happiness that was brought to my life because of the Lord. All Saints' Day holds special memories and significance for us as its the day that the Lord taught us about being trusting in Him.

Later on I learnt that All Saints Day was to commemorate the unsung heros who act saintly towards others, and not those saints that were "knighted" (okies, my knowledge in this area is seriously lacking... but here's the joy of learning new things rite? hee...)

Today we celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary, feeling evermore loved and cared for by the Lord and towards each other. indulging in life's simple pleasures....
