Thanksgiving Testimony for Nite Cycling

Wow, really want to thank God for last night's cycling. It was great! Could really see God at work keeping us safe and blessing us with SIX visitors - and all of them are guys! PTL!

And praise God, TH's ok to come for the Christmas service on 24 Dec! (Of course have to confirm later on, but still, it's the heart that counts!)

And GH said that he enjoyed himself a lot. He wants to join us for more!

As I was cycling, I was reminded of Ezra 8:18. The verse reminded me that God's gracious hand was upon our entire event. Could sense His Spirit watching over us every step of the way. Wow.

And another example of God's perfect planning tying in together with our plans: We had prayed for no rain in front of our visitors, but the rain came anyway. However, when the rain came, it came only when we were very near a petrol station, which happened to be very near a shopping mall.

Thank God the downpour didn't start when we were on the expressway! Yet another example of God's gracious hand upon us as we commit our plans to Him in prayer.

And because of that heavy downpour, we were able to spend about two and a half hours just talking and playing hilarious icebreakers! Thank God for Sarah's hilarious ice-breakers that got us into stitches, and that everyone really enjoyed themselves very much! It was such a sweet time.

It was so heartwarming, because everyone, including our faithful visitors - Ah Muan and TH - helped out too! Thank God for Ah Muan's help in the planning - he was a great blessing to us. And TH was talking with Dennis all the night long - TH has incredible verbal stamina. Gosh. It's very fun to talk with TH - he has this ability to make seemingly dry, academic topics very interesting to listen to! :)

And one sister said:

hahaha
im so glad my friends can click with u guys
cos i did thought at e back of my mind that somehow they might not
but it seemed so natural

And she added, it wasn't only the fun, but also the caring, the watching out for one another that really made it so meaningful.

I'm very thankful to God for all His goodness, because we can really see how God is working in our CG to bring in new friends and to deepen current friendships. And all this is happening in response to our recently growing prayer life.

TH's willing to come for service and Christmas party; GH, W and J really enjoyed themselves - and our own CGs really had a whale of a time too! Thank God truly for His wonderful provision and protection in answer to our prayers!

So want to encourage us all, during this season of telling others about God's love, let's continue to pray even more eagerly and urgently. Because He is able to do even more than all we ask or even dare to dream of!

To Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, thru all generations, forever and ever. Amen!
