Amazed by God

Each day, I am amazed at what the Lord provides for His people. Like daily manna, I wait in anticipation for Him to speak and to provide each day. Want to make a guess what kind of provision the Lord made for me today? I received a call from my mum's ex-colleague to take over her tuition kids. Not just one, but four altogether. And the good part of it was – they all live in the same house. That will save traveling time and they are living in the East, very close-by to me! I marvel at the way the Lord has been opening door after door for me as I learn to wait and trust Him. It is really a test of my faith but this journey has never been more exciting and fun!

I was led to read a passage in Exodus 15:23 when Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Wilderness of Shur. They went there 3 days and found no water. When they came to Marah, they found that the water was bitter and could not drink it. The people murmured while Moses cried out to the Lord. The Lord showed him a tree and when he casts it into the waters, the waters became sweet. He tested them in that place and said, "If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statues, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you."

May we experience miracles of 'bitter water made sweet' in our lives as we walk in total obedience and trust in the Lord! ☺
