Went shopping with Jireh last Saturday - she's been looking for a pair of white wedges for a while but they either didn't have her size or the colour. The shoes are very suited for Jireh - being wedges they aren't too strenuous on her back and there's back straps so she can wear to teach. So we went on to 2 other outlets but they just seem to run out of size 6. After giving up, we chanced upon Metro and caught a glimpse of Timberland right at the end behind the pillar. And to our pleasant surprise they had her size and the shoes were on 20% discount!
Even though it seem very insignificant, this serves as a strong reminder as to how God touches our lives. I'm in a new phase in life, feeling very lost, wanting to do things by my own strength and claiming credit for myself. But none of these have come by by myself. He could have closed every single door if He hadn't want me there.
There are times of frustrations when I try very hard to put my trust in Him but He seems to have forgotten me. Yet time and time again, He provides with far better solutions to the problems I face than what I prayed for. It's sad how unfaithful I've been to Him, to deny His Hand in my life. It's a constant struggle.
Yet maybe the next day or the next moment, I'll be facing with another struggle in this journey. Guess this applies to everyone.
