Little things to thank God for :)

On friday, I had a super tiring day at work, cos I was concentrating in front of the comp almost throughout the day. After work, I had to head to church for worship prac. Whilst walking towards the MRT station, I prayed, "Lord, I am super tired, please help me find a seat on the train, if possible." I said "if possible" cos usually the train is super crowded at that hour and it's unlikely I would be able to find a seat. Guess what! just 2 stops down, someone stood up, got off the train, and surprisingly, NO ONE WANTED TO SIT DOWN! the seat was quite far from where I was standing.. and I GOT THE SEAT, for the next 7 stops! I was super elated!

Last night, I had a lot of trouble sleeping because of acid reflux. Sat up for about an hour because I could not lie down...and it was really quite upsetting. Finally, I cried out to the Lord, "Lord, I am super tired and I want to sleep. Please let the discomfort go away when I lie down." Guess what! I went to the bed, laid down and ..... within seconds, I fell asleep... quite soundly. :) I was amazed when I woke up this morning and I am reminded by this verse:

Psalm 127:2
In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.

There are many more such little encounters...:)

God cares for us...and He is just a prayer away.
