Grace- undeserved


Today was a really blessed day… I went out with Lydia, David, Parry and Zhen to watch stuck on you… actually that’s not really my kinda show but oh well it was definitely better than wad I expected… then we met Cliff and Jeremy for a while before we all left… it was really fun… thanks guys… :)

Anyway tts another story… I wanna share sumthing that happened last nite… not the me you would normally see usually… but last nite I was being very very bratty… I was acting like a dumb ass… yeah cos wad happened was that I wanna get the samsung E700A hp… but my dad made a half-hearted promise… and I thot I wasn’t being treated as well as my brother… I mean who wouldn’t feel that way occasionally? So I threw a bit of a tantrum… n then bryan n my mum got in the way and in the end it became a family thing and I was really really mad… and of course I got scolded… the reason I’m so used to asking is because I’m used to asking God for things and I forgot that my parents aren’t exactly God… and although I feel I could get more things, I saw really how childish I was being… that was when everyone had gone to bed and (here’s the part tt’s the thing) when I opened my bible…

I flipped it open and the page fell on psalm 145… it was really God… and because I’ve read the verse before and highlighted it my eyes were automatically drawn to it… between vs 8-20, 3 times it appeared that God is rich in love ( I checked the Hebrew for this and it means unfailing love AND devotion), and that He loves all the things that He has made. Which is basically all of us! And I read twice that He satisfies/fulfills the desires of our hearts! I know that God knows that I love that fone a lot… and I believe that although I’ve got enough money to get one He’s gonna get one for me without me having to spend a single cent… and I knew… 1stly I knew I actually deserved to get scolded… and punished… but God in all His mercy and grace (oh I love this phrase)… instead of punishing me as I deserved, held me in His arms and told me that He loved me… this is the undeserved grace and favour I received… secondly Daddy also promised that He satisfies my desires… talk about the “and much more”… this is truly undeserved and I’ve never felt this grace so strongly before… and because of this, I actually felt apologetic and apologized to my parents and brother… tt’s wad God’s grace does… instead of making us feel like taking advantage, it makes us do the right thing… and I have no regrets… because I apologized, I’m on good terms with my family again… tt’s God… I love Him… this is just my testimony… I hope you’ll never have to go thru the pain of the situation I went thru yet be able to catch this revelation of His love amen? Be blessed :)
