2011 part 1

Lord, I am thankful for everything You've done for me and given to me. I knew that I was Your masterpiece, and I believed that You created me; but I just couldn't help thinking that I was Your least favourite masterpiece considering what a wreck I had been. But, Your grace reached and lifted me. You proved to me again that You're faithful to me even when I wasn't faithful to You. Lord, I am thankful.

Lord, I would never think that my sister would have a chance to know You considering her character and attitudes towards Christianity. But, You used the pregnancy to show her how great and loving You are. When she told me that she could see Your hand upon her throughout the process of pregnancy, I was amazed beyond words! Only You could do such a thing. When she asked me to teach her how to pray to You, tears filled my eyes. I gave up on sharing with her and praying for her, because all I could see was how hard her heart was towards You. I never saw how powerful You could be, but You showed me just again Your power. When she told me she felt peace and joy in her heart after she prayed to You, I knew You've open the door of salvation. Lord, thank You so much! I promise You that I'll never give up on praying for anyone anymore!

Lord, I finally experienced a little bit of the 'it is well with my soul' moment. When I first heard the story of the man who wrote the song 'It is well with my soul', I couldn't understand how he could say that his soul was well after his four daughters died. But, I finally understood, not to the extent, but a little bit of it. I would never think that I could bring the show, Walk with me, to completion. But, I did. And, the good comments and testimonies were just so overwhelming when I heard them. It's not my work but Yours. I can still remember two months before the show, I wanted to give up. In fact, I prayed for an open door for me to give up. But, You comforted my heart and told me to go on. I couldn't believe that You could help me because those problems I faced then were just so huge, but You told me to trust You again and again. You told me to do my best and leave the outcome to You. You assured me that I needed to go through this process to see how faithful You can be so my faith would be challenged to the next level. Because, when You finally bring me into missions, there will be times that I just need to believe and press on. So, I struggled and finally surrender everything into Your hands. I remember telling You that I didn't want to be worried anymore, and no matter how big those problems were, my soul was well and I could give You praise. So, when You asked me to go to Bangladesh for missions just a month before the show, I knew I could go even there were still things that I needed get done. I was calm and I knew You were in control. To the day of performance, instead of being nervous, I was more excited than nervous because I knew it was time to see Your glory and miracles. Lord, did You know that I could hear You saying to me 'Now your faith has grown to the next level' when I was standing on stage listening to the cheering and clapping of hands. Testimonies about people being moved and touched have not stop coming to me until now, two weeks after the show. Thank You!

When I was asking why hadn't You provided me the money for the trip to Bangladesh? You showed me that money was always there. Lord, thank You so much for Your provision. Your provision is always more than enough! Now, I can't stand my lack of words!!! If only I had words that can express half my gratitude!!! God, You're super awesome!!!

Sponsored trip to the US next year? God, You know me just so well!!! You know where I want to go, and You know that I won't have enough money to go, but You're bringing me there for free!!! I want to jump up and down to praise You now!!!
