Fast Delivery!

-






HATE LATE? This slogan of an ad must be familiar to you. You might not be patient to wait for something to fill in your stomach.

How about in the concept of PRAYING? Do you pray and always wanting to be answered immediately? or you still pray even if there's no answer yet?

They say when you pray, God will only respond in 3 ways: YES, NO, and WAIT.

HATE LATE when it comes to prayer? God has never been late in answering our prayers. He wants us to WAIT for He will answer in His own terms, in His beautiful and perfect time.

What are you thankful for?
"I thank God for His perfect delivery in my prayer!"


Let me share you my story...
Couple of weeks ago, I was sending resume to different media companies.

I am still employed up to this time, but I still dream that one day, I could work in a media company.

As you know, I am an English teacher for Korean students. I am capable of teaching but I am not a licensed teacher. I have a heart for teaching but I still dream to practice what ever I learned in college professionally - working in a media company. 

My mind has been struggling for months about my future. But I know that my Lord wasn't happy because I worry too much.
I had lots of "How will I...?" "What if...?" "How can I...?"
Aaaahhh.... It was exhausting!

I almost lost hope whenever I check my email, inbox or spam for a reply from the companies I sent my resume with. But there's none :(

Then, apparently, I sent my resume again last night.  For the second time, I also included my personal note to whoever might receive my email.
 
Prayer.
I prayed before sending my email.
"Thy will be done".

Then this morning, I was still in bed when my phone rang. The number which appeared wasn't in my phonebook so I just ignored it for a while, hoping it will stop.

But it didn't.

Then, I realized, "Oh no, it must be a call from the company!"

I got up and answered it eagerly

Exchanged conversation happened for 10 minutes.

Waaaaaaaaaahh... I'm very happy!

Even if it was just a call, and scheduled to be interviewed next week (TUESDAY, JUNE 7 ~ PLEASE JOIN ME IN PRAYING FOR THIS), I feel God's immediate response to my prayer! Indeed, He's not far away. He listened to me last night!

This is another experience that I surely won't forget!

To God be the glory!

God bless you all :)

Lessons from the Lord’s Prayer

When Jesus taught His disciples the Lord’s Prayer, he was not giving them a prayer to memorize and recite every time they prayed.   He was giving them a model for their own prayers.   As you study the model prayer that Jesus gave, compare it with the prayers you offer to God.   What can you learn from the way Jesus prayed that can help you to be more effective in your own praying? (I am sharing material from my devotional book The Experience Day-by-Day with God by Henry and Richard Blackaby) God bless as you read.... Our Father This is how you should pray: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” -Matthew 6:9            Everyone wants to be loved.   God designed the family to be a source of love and encouragement.   If you have a family that loves you and that is in your corner, you can take on life with confidence.   But what is that is not your experience? What if, to you, family means criticism, anger, and even abuse?   There is another family that longs to love and to

Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. -Matthew 19:17 A person who is a good person is an individual of lofty ideals, noble purposes, strong character, reliable conduct and trustworthy integrity. The only one who truly embodies all of those characteristics is Jesus Christ. We come to understand the word goodness as we it alongside the word righteousness. Someone has said that justice is what God gives to us that we deserve. Goodness goes beyond that and is that which God gives us beyond what we deserve. The great characteristic of goodness as it is found in relationship with righteousness is generosity. It is what a person gets that isn’t deserved. It is what God gives to a person that could never be earned. Goodness in its relationship to righteousness teaches us about generosity. You don’t have to be rich to be generous. But what do you do with what you have? We need to take a good long look at our lives and ask God how our attitudes have been to the
