Let me take you back two weeks ago on thursday, I had speaking appointment on health somewhere and I got ready and I went to a place to present, but one of the host for the place, for some reasons decided that I should not present. I was disappointed because there was no solid reasons to cancel the presentation. I was tempted to complain but silently I left the place. And I thought since I have a free time I should go and look for wheat seeds, I have been wanting to buy them but it seemed an opportunity never showed up, so I go to a market and started to look for them with no success, since I was in the market, I thought I should look for soapmaking equipments, and I was directed to a certain shop , upon arriving there, i found the owner of the shop sick and I shared some health tips and as I was leaving, The Holy Spirit told me to pray for him so I went back and prayed with Him and I left the shop, and I felt that peace channeling through my heart, and God changed the situation to be a blessing for the shopkeeper and It was a joy to know that God is still in control.
For the last time I went looking for the wheat seeds, I couldnt find them anywhere. I did the rest of the shopping for things that were needed at home and I was about the leave, I saw by far some grains like brown rice and I wanted to know the price and when I asked, I was told it was wheat seeds, I jumped for joy, finally my goal has been accomplished.
After few days, I received a text from the shopkeeper that He is feeling better , Praise God the prayers have worked and one day He might come to know about the Christ who healed him. Amen
Well a week later, this story starts on wednesday and ends of thursday, On Wednesday morning I had a meeting and my phone screen started not to respond to the touch of my fingers and I was leading an evening devotion on YOAM ( Youth on Advent Mission) who are based in England and I would connect to them on FaceTime on my phone since I am Africa and I started to worry how will I connect and share egw quotations on whatsapp, I tried using my sister's phone but that didn't work either so I left the matter to the Lord and continued with the preparations for the devotion. One of my prayers was for the Lord not to allow electricity to be cut and here in Africa to be precise, In Tanzania sometimes electricity can go off at anytime and cause the WIFI to be off as well and that would cause me not to be able to use FaceTime on my laptop, But praise God, everything went well, the devotion was a blessing.
Come thursday, my phone is still not responding and I am like Lord whats this !! After some hours, memories comes into mind that last year mum gave me an iphone that she thought it died and when I charged it, it still works, Praise God.
But the icing on the cupcake is that, the "not responding iPhone" had 8GB but I was only suppose to use 5 GB, who is in this day and age survives with less than 5GB phone storage, well for me personally I was struggling with space on the phone, I had to delete messages on whatsapp, sometimes the phone could not download new emails and I had to backup pictures regularly and my fingers got used to dismiss " storage almost full" warning on phone. To be honest, I was tired with the issue and I prayed to God to help me get another phone with larger phone storage . But God is ever faithful and merciful that I now have 12 GB phone storage. Hallelujah
I dont know what you are going through right now, but God is still watching over you, choose to rely on Him, choose to trust him even if things don't look suitable, He still love you and cares for you. He can work wonders in big or small scale. He never changes. He can turn things around in your life IF you let him. When we are discouraged, go to Him and you shall find rest for your soul. Have faith in Him.
Faith can endure trial, resist temptation, bear up under disappointment. Jesus lives as our advocate. All is ours that His mediation secures. – {GW 478.1}
God bless you
