Let's humble our hearts and seek Him.

Hmm....So sorry for the long silence. I have been busy as usual. I have been posted at Relief and Operation Dept. since I came back from my well deserved two weeks break from work. On 14 Feb while I was still enjoying my last few days of my holidays in Cameron Highlands, I received an sms from my colleague. According to her, I would be going to Royal Belum State Park to conduct a need assessment with her. Of course, it came as a great news. We are talking about 150million years old rain forest. You can imagine how thrilled I was. So, I went back to K.L, spending a night there and then off again before dawn the following day to the rain forest.

Of course, when everything seems so fine, something bad always happen. Two weeks ago, my father had an accident at work. His hand slipped into the wood polishing machine and his fingers were severely injured. That evening, I was prompted to sms my brother. Then, my brother called me up and informed me what had happened to my father. I caught the bus that night to go back to my hometown to see my father. He had to go through nearly 3 hours surgery. So, I spent 2 nights at the medical centre to keep an eye on him. Of course, during the darkest hours, we always draw closer to God. I prayed (and about to wail and beat my chest like the tax collector in the bible) to God and asked God to comfort my father and strenghten him. Of course, God is good. My father has since been recovering speedily. Praise the Lord for His kindness.

The Good Friday and Easter is just around the corner. Let's take time to seek God and engage in prayers. May all of us live a life which will bring glory to Him. Praise the Lord for His forgiveness and His unfailing love.
