Blessed to be a blessing

Forget those photos for a while.

The O levels are here. Somehow, this time of the year brings back many fond memories. I wonder whether I should pay the library a visit these days. I can still recall the horrendous study break days at the library. I could literally live there. 10am to 9pm daily except for Mondays since libraries close at 5pm on Mondays. Well... you get the idea. And this year, I'm re-living O levels with Melody. Not that it's a chore, in fact, it has been a joy.

During this entire period, she will call me whenever she needs a prayer or on the nights before a paper. I thank God that she calls me for prayer. I thank God for this unceasing prayer support He gave me last year. I'm telling you.. no one was as faithful as this girl when it came to praying for me last year. Through Melody, I learnt what prayer support is. It is not the usual "I will pray for you" said on Sundays nor is it the superficial prayers said in church only. Last year, she called me up before every paper to pray, encourage and to spur me on. I thank God for her prayers. I wouldn't say that I'm as faithful as compared to her last year but the precious lessons she taught me on prayer follow me.

I thank God for this privilege to pray for her. Now, I have lost contact with most of my juniors. She is the only person I am still in contact with. Perhaps it's the prayer bond and the fact that she is my sister in the same family of Christ.

Even as I relive O Levels with Melody again, I realise how God can see milestones in our lives to show us His plans. I got to know the true dimension of His strength when I was weak last year. He was there with me when I broke down before social studies paper; He was there with me when I contemplated suicide (SHOO!! satan!!); He was there beside me when I almost cut my wrist. God is so real in my life. He uses major events to open your eyes to see His presence. Then, you continue to bring His presence wherever you go. *Smile*

God creates us to be blessed. In return, we are to live as a blessing unto others. Coz we're blessed to be a blessing.

Thank You Jesus.
