Thank You, O Lord. 7:14 PM

Wow. It really feels good to be right on track with God, when you know that God is there to listen to you, when you can just cry out to him. That feeling is awesome:)

Cover To Cover (that's my new devotion) ain't easy at all man. After much delay and overcoming distraction, I read through Day 9. An awesome day. QT had never felt better for such a looooooong time.

Charis encouraged me with a Bible verse today, and in turn I read it in chinese to my mum when she was so troubled over my brother's problems.

John 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
This is truly a promise, so strong, so needed in this world today.

At the end of my devotion, I was given a reminder. This was often forgotten, and we really need to bear this in mind.

"God allows the bad things to happen to His people only if He sees a way of turning the bad into a greater good." How true. All we know is to complain and whine to God when trouble comes, when things don't go our way. Give thanks to God in all circumstances, whether good or bad:):)

Romans 8:28
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,[a] who[b] have been called according to his purpose."
