8th and Praying

There is only one explanation to the 8th one: prayer.

My mum unfailingly pray for me every day for the last 28 years.
(the only person whose love i have given up competing against..
i simply won't be able to love her more in return).

Sometimes, when she told me over the phone that she prays this and that for me..
I would just take it for granted.

But for the 8th case..
what can i say?
A complete stranger left a message: 'i want to sell my property'.
There were so many agents in the website and they picked me?

Some unbelievable events took place.
two days after i visited his place, his neighbor came knocking,
wanting to buy his house.
i have not signed any agreement with him.
only verbal agreement between us.
he could have dealt directly with the buyer to avoid paying me comms.
instead he told the buyer, "i have an agent, pls liaise with him".

I was like.. "whaat.... " when he told me that.
i didn't expect such loyalty even from a friend,
(coz i doubt i have such loyalty myself)
and yet this is.. a stranger.
they were not stupid.. they were simply holding to their words.

Few unbelievable events followed,
and in three days..
- i found out that the family are christian, including the indonesian maid.
- these baptist church couple have outstanding integrity that amaze me. they told the buyer the defects in their house, even though they were not visible.
they were not stupid.. they were simply not compromising.
- and we close the deal in three days.

Sigh.. what a grace.. what a couple.
I dunno what they learned from their church, but the pastor taught well.
they are not speaking in tongue.. yet they have the fruit of the Spirit.

Coming back to prayer-
I can only thank everyone who have been praying for me.
I need more of those, really.
Because you see.. I am so far from being good enough,
that I need so much grace, so many prayers.

Thank you for your prayer =)

Good things

Good things happen recently ^^ Not so much for me though lol. Well, my NUS fren got engaged last week. She has been with her boyfriend for quite a while. Both are genius.. congratz2... Then yesterday was the most shocking one... coz I always thought all was just jokes.. congratz to the two FA frens of me. Surely love works in the most unpredictable ways. Of course the previous couple from FA was also shocking to me for different reason haha. Anyway, glad to see them happy. I dunno if Friday's dinner is gonna be good thing but I know that this is really going nowhere. Sigh.. so it seems that we are going nowhere while the others have moved on. Anyway, was having a great FA session last night. Eve shared on how God used her the night before to help cast out demons for her friend. So she was sleeping over her friend's house, they were chatting till almost 3 AM and then the topic became serious and her friend wanted to be set free from the devil spirit inside her. At first Eve was ...

song of the phoenix

Hindarkan aku dari murkaMu ya Allah, sembunyikan aku dari geramMu yang menyala-nyala sesungguhnya dalam kesalahan aku dikandung, dan dalam pelanggaran aku diperanakkan, dan dengan dosa aku bergumul sepanjang hariku tulang-tulangku serasa remuk oleh gentar, dan hatiku sungguh hancur mengingat dukaMu jangan palingkan wajahMu ya Allah, jangan biarkan rohMu yang kudus beranjak dariku siapakah aku ya Tuhan, hingga layak akan belas kasihMu namun itu yang kupinta, kuberanikan meminta, maka dengarlah jeritku ya gunung batuku sekali lagi, ulurkan tangan kanan Mu angkatlah aku dari debu dan abu sekali lagi, hembuskan nafas hidup Mu bangkitkan aku dari jurang maut Hades nyalakan sekali lagi, api kudus Mu yang menghanguskan noda cela ku sampai habis biar sekali lagi bibir ini layak berkata, terpujilah Engkau ya Allah ku yang hidup *dari chapter 'daud dan batsyeba'
