Rombongan OA


When God says He will heal, He WILL heal.
When He says He'll take care of us, He WILL.
In fact, He doesn't even need to SAY it, because it's His nature.
He WILL look after us. He WILL bless us. He WILL provide for us....and the list goes on.

Was reminded about all this in during my recent OA trip.
Felt it was time for me to go for missions again... Don't wanna lose that passion.
And YEAY! I was picked to go for the May trip.
Ended up with an unpredictable team. But God truly bonded us despite the little time together prior to the trip. Elsa, Jason, Chee Yong; you guys are the best!!

Answered prayers:
1) God strengthened my knee - could hike 3 hours a day!! Woo hoo!!
2) Entered new village
3) Burdens (bag packs) lifted during our hike into the village.

God's goodness without even us asking:
1) Him preparing the order of our sermons and testimonies (nothing went as we planned)
2) Him sending us rain on our hike back - refreshed us, lessened the impact on our feet and legs, gave us lotsa fun. :P
3) His timing for our transport back

Things that make me wanna return there:
1) The simplicity and peace of the kampung.
2) The children; just them holding your hand, smiling at you, clinging on to you... melts my heart everytime.
3) The fun of hiking with a crazy team
4) The cute bamboo hut - being able to just drop anything (food) through the gaps knowing some animal will eat it up. haha..
5) The total reliance on God due to no modes of communication and everything being unpredictable.

At the end of it all, we're really reminded that it's no surprise when we see how our Papa in Heaven takes care of our every need. Coz it's His nature. It's just Him.
:D
