#-Divine Intervention

Tomorrow I fly. Off to London I go, for 2 interviews.

I usually do not prepare for interviews at all, but this time I actually wrote down some common questions and my answers for them. I will have to read through them on the plane there.

So please pray that God will guide me and protect my family when we go there. And also that I the Spirit will work in me that He will guide me through my interviews, so that I will not be nervous but speak with conviction and passion. Pray that He will be in my words, that what comes out of my mouth will be from Him.

After all, I realize that He has always been with me through all my previous interviews. I remember that I don't really remember my answers to the questions but I relaly do believe that the Lord spoke through me, and it wasn't just myself that was working but for the most part, I could tell that all my words and actions during previous interviews were divine guidance, and it thrills me to reminisce on how intimately He is involved in my life.

Mum brought up a few more instances whereby God's protection for our family has been so apparent. Recently we missed our trip to ChiangMai, and despite my initial protestings, it has turned out to be for the best, for in that time we missed the trip, I really got a good rest at home, lots of practice on my Warr, and I was also able to meet with many friends who came back from overseas. But the real deal was when we found out about the bombings in Thailand that we knew that God had protected us by disallowing us to go on the trip. If we were in Thailand, there would probably have been abit of complications. Likewise He protected Karl when he was in Thailand too, by keeping him away from the city area where the bombings took place.

And praise the Lord that He did not let us book the earlier flights to London. As it turns out, if we had booked the Friday or Saturday flight, it might have been cancelled due to the storm over there. And even worse, we might have been caught in that storm. And the thing was that one of the days there actually were spaces availiable on the Friday flight, and Mum called me to ask if I wanted to book that flight, but as soon as she checked with me, those seats were taken up. It was only a matter of seconds, but God really did come through and was looking out for my family.

These are the things that we have to document, to keep down on record, to reflect and recollect how God has worked in our lives. And as Dad says, we humans are forgetful as we are, so it always helps in our journey with the Lord to record the instances in which His divine intervention in out lives has been so prominent. So this is my documentation, and also my gratefulness for what He has done for us.

Oh bless the Lord my soul!
His grace to Thee proclaim,
And all that is within me joins,
To praise His holy name!

So dear Father, be with me yet again for my interviews this time around. Give me direction and protection through my stay in London, and guide my every step that Your Will might be done.
