I feel like screaming from the rooftops, running and hopping around in circles right now! :') I don't even know how to start this post! I figured there's gonna be many exclamation marks in this post! Even then, I don't think it can adequately describe how I'm feeling now. Oh man!!! Okay, esther, relax. I'm so happy I want to cry!!! Really!!! Oh man :')
Two days back, my friend(X, haha!) called me at 12 am telling me she lost her mac book in the afternoon and she just realized she did. We were super panicky and all, I mean, imagine the consequences: 1800 bucks gone, Dad's gonna kill, essays, photos everything all gone! But we decided to just pray together and really yea, just pray. We could only pray cos only God knews where it was right, duh. That night, I had a dream. I dreamt that we found it! In a sports shop or something. All I remembered from the dream was that there were Nike shoes and some fbt shorts in the room we were in. I woke up next morning, feeling so confident we were gonna find it.
The next day: went to the bus interchange, X called up her school, bus company, and even went to the police. The odds seemed so great. Our faith went from like 150% to -150%. I started to doubt the confidence I had in the morning. To cut the long story short, X's friend found it in her school (cca room I think? which pretty much explains the nike shoes in the dream!) today evening!!! It's amazing isn't it! What is impossible with man, is definitely easy peasy business for God. (:
The irony is that I was still like prep talking X though I was slightly doubtful myself if we'd ever find it after one whole day of trying to search for it. Reminding her of who He said He is, about how He is faithful, how He never fails and how He never changes. Funny how we know all these promises and nice stuff in our brains, and when things happen to others we could believe and claim these promises for them. But when it comes to our own situations, we react cynically and apprehensively. Confession: I am like that, many times. Hehe. And when God comes through we act like it was our faith that moved God's heart. And we go like, "See! I knew God would come through for me!" HAHA. Okay am I the only guilty one? Haha.
I think God has been incredibly kind to me. He's been opening my eyes, allowing me to taste and see His goodness and His faithfulness everyday. And showing me how He is really, every single thing He says He is!
Chanced upon Kari Jobe's new album today and this song in particular, spoke to me. I love songs like these- where you just praise Him for who He is! I got so edified watching this video so I thought I'd just share this with you guys and I hope it speaks to you as much as it does to me (: Enjoy!

Verse 1:
Only one name lasts forever
Only one fame stands alone
Only one key has an anthem
That goes on and on and on
Chorus:
And I'm Singing to the God who brings redemption to the nations
Kings and oceans bow to Him in praise
And I'm Singing to the God who wrote the book on our salvation
To the One who covers me in grace
I'm Singing
Verse 2:
Only one word in the beginning
Only one truth will prevail
Only one love brings you freedom
Only one Man took the nails
Bridge:
Praise, Praise to the Savior
Praise, to the Lamb Of God
Praise, in all of His splendor
Praise, for saving my life
Tag:
I'm Singing
I'm Singing
I'm Singing
Because You are who You say You are, I'm singing. (:
