So much has happened since I last posted, in Army, at church and in BB. I'm glad that G2 Time Out is finally a thing of the past, things are going more or less smoothly in Army, and that the end of the year is finally drawing near.
Since 100%, God has used events in my life to teach me how to trust Him to provide, and I want to share one such instance here.
I was scheduled to play for service on the day of AHM (which was a Sunday), but all the NSFs in my department got arrowed for admin duty nearer to the date. From the looks of it, I would be fortunate to be released in the late morning, and the chances of my getting to church in time even for 2nd service would be rather slim. I told Uncle Kenneth (the worship leader for that sunday), Siyan and Jotham about my concern of not being able to come for service on the actual day, but they said it was all right and told me not to worry about it, and that made me feel better. On the morning of AHM, time seemed to drag by, and I was praying to God that if it was His will, I would be released from duty in time to get to church for service. It was quite a struggle for me waiting there early in the cold Sunday morning, not knowing if I would be able to make it or not, but there was nothing I could do but trust. As it turned out, we all got released from our duty earlier than expected, and God provided through Jason (my colleague) who drove me all the way to church, as it was raining. I got to church with half an hour to spare, giving me plenty of time to freshen up and prepare. Some friends later asked me how I managed to play for sevice, let alone come to church on the day of AHM itself. God truly provides!
December is sure going to be a packed month for me. First there's youth camp from 11th - 15th Dec, but I won't be able to attend the whole camp, so I'll try and drop in as much as I can. I'm glad the camp will be so near home:). Then my family is going to Australia until just before Christmas. After Christmas, SLR and BB Officers' Retreat clash exactly on 27th - 29th Dec, and I really do not want to miss either, but even then, it is all subject to whether boss will let me off on those days. Oh well...
