Made a new friend last night

Went to sit long the Singapore River, facing Fullerton Hotel yesterday in the evening... it was "ME and MYSELF time".

Was journalling and reading the bible, suddenly, this indian guy walked over to borrow a pen..then when he returned me the pen, he said something like.."if you need to talk..." haha.. think he thought I was troubled or something. I said "no need" then we returned to our seats.

After some minutes, before I was ready to leave, I prayed and asked God whether I should speak to him a little. Haha.. well, I thought it seemed quite mean to not even say bye before I left...in the end, I sat down beside him and chatted with him for a while. He is from Bangladesh, working in Singapore... but speaks pretty good english (good enough for me to converse for a while)...took the opportunity to share a bit hee hee...

He was happy to have found a new friend...and I told him that my hubby would want to be his friend too! haha! Told hubby about it when I got home yesterday...=) guess we may try building a friendship with him...

Anyway, that was an interesting encounter.

How would I describe my life lately? Different, new, NOT trouble-free, filled with uncertainty and sometimes anxiety. Not an easy road...

But I am still grateful that God gives me strength to pull through each day...

All by His grace, I am still living...

2 Cor 12:9
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
