Lifestyle of Blessing

I was so delighted that I was able to be with the gals at Eunos MRT Station tonight to share 100K blessing. I had an opportunity to speak to a shop owner who sells pretty bags. Her name is Lena and she is from City Harvest Church. (You should patronize her shop when you get there sometime) When we walked by to want to pray a blessing over her shop, she was actually in a conversation with someone else inviting them to church. She commented that we should have walked in to join her in the conversation. That was sweet!

Then I stopped another young lady Jenny and had an opportunity to pray a blessing for her. When I told her that we were committed to pray for her daily, she was so touched and commented, “Oh! Really! Thank You!”. She even asked where our church was. I gave her the other slip of the 100k pamphlet and offered to accompany her to church if she was interested. Wow! How fruitful! I wished I could do this daily – I think I would like to make it my daily lifestyle to share a blessing with someone.

In fact, I was feeling rather restless today and was telling the Lord that times of waiting are rather difficult and challenging – whether in the area of our jobs, our family's salvation, ministry needs, our own needs etc. But I was reminded of Ps Melvyn’s message on Sunday that we are to WAIT in SUBMISSION to God. Waiting can be such a chore and it can take such a toil on our spirits. But today, I made a choice that my times of waiting would be on the Lord - Isa 40:31 was the verse I meditated. They who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not grow weary, they shall walk and not faint.

Teach me, Lord to wait!
