Quote- I
'Do not judge GOD by the situation.' - a phrase heard from a random person in astons.
On this quote: i overheard this quote when a guy was telling his friend of his struggles. and i thought it was really apt to many people in this world.
how often do we blame God for the situation we're in? i guess its truly often, and we're all guilty of it. (ohman! i sound so philosophical!) but anyway. its true. i believe that everything that happens to us is a lesson learnt thru God's way and His plan.
yesterday, 10 sep '09, i met carmen and uncle dennis at aljunied mrt before heading to crc to practice for the cantata. when we reached the first level of 'the sunflower', uncle dennis card could not be read by the scanner, and thus we had problem getting in till a lady came our to open the door for us.
as we went pass the door, uncle dennis's luggage containing books was stucked at the door.
when we went into the lift, the door accidentally closed on him! so i casually commented,
"uncle dennis, i think the doors don't like you. hahas"
"hahas.. hope the doors of heaven would like me" he replied.
"no i think its the doors of hell would dislike you" replying to his banter.
as we reached the second floor, he realised that he forgot to bring key! hahas! hilarious!
he searched, and searched, tried to call people to ask if they're available to help open the door, but to no avail. he didnt give up hope and continue searching in his bag, carrying a gleam of hope that somehow the key would be there.
"i think i heard something!" uncle dennis said.
"ya ya! i heard it too! I think its the sound of keys!" i replied.
"i heard sounds, but it was the sound of COINS!" he joked.
okays, and that was a small episode of my life which i think was quite apt to the quote mentioned above.
the incident of uncle dennis forgetting to bring the key couldn't be blamed on God as he may have a reason for this. who knows the reason? God knows.
yupps. so that's all folks!
loves,
