Its amazing just how God moves things around us. A lil' background before I start what I am gonna post.
How me and my friends got inspired was truly from a faith of a girl from Acts Church. Only 15yrs old and with a bunch of friends, they call themselves the recessrevo (it simply means recess revolution). They gather to pray each week once during their recess hr just asking God what does He want them to do. One of the testimony would be paying for 1000++ students' lunch. Wow.. I wouldn't talk so much about it because if you want to know about it, you can always ask me or the Acts church ppl personally =D.
From that me and my friends formed a group which we call campusrevo. For the first time, we tried meeting together every week. Trust me, it was hard and annoying because all our break time were diff. We met from Mon - Thurs, praying in threes or more everyday. On Mon, Ann Ee had a word from God telling to bless the guards. She was not with us then, bt she text May Zhen about it. However, as much as we wanted to do it..We somehow felt tht the timing was not right. We were really unsure how to start or where to start. Weird thing was, while we were talking bout it, I just saw in my head (I have no idea how to describe k..) my campus and the number 8 came to me. I was like.. could it be of my own thoughts??
I told May Zhen about it only. She told me to continue praying about it. So we didnt say it out. We decided to not do it tht day. On thurs, many of us had the urge to do it. So ok! Thurs it is!! Me, Sam n Joshua head out to buy the kuih and Iced Teh. While Daniel, May Zhen and Ann Ee stayed back. While we were "shopping", those three wrote encouragement words from Mr Ronson
"If you ever felt that you are unloved and lonely.
God says, "I will always love you"
John 3:16
God says, "I will always love you"
John 3:16
When we got back, we packed the stuff and stick the note cards on them. By then, May Zhen and Sam had to go for classes but Shaun came after XD. Before we left to bless the guards, we prayed and yea!! With May Zhen and Sam's faith with us too, we separated into 2 groups. We presume that thr were 6 guards at main campus so we only had 6 packets with us and the rest with Joshua and Daniel. We were really nervous to be honest. But with some courage, we manage to give to the guards each and telling them how much we appreciate them and talked bout God here and there.
One of the guards, Mr Daniel, was touched and said he dun really think God loves him because he seems to be the black sheep of the family. His brothers being pastors but he only a guard. Ann Ee and I somehow felt led by the Spirit and we told him how he is not and so on. We encouraged him and told him not to give up on God.
After we handed out all 6 packets, Mr Daniel came up to us and said, "I think ur missing out 2". Ann Ee was like stunned, Shaun and I were speechless. Ann Ee quickly called Joshua, by the grace of God, there were 2 extras!! So we told them to rush back and give it to the guards at our campus. And just then it hit me.. The number 8 was probably God telling me after all. Ann Ee was like so hyped up out of nervous and excitement tht she look like she wanted to strangle me when I told her @.@ .. Haha!!
Some of our classmates were questioning us when we got back to class like what were we doing and so on. I partly felt happy bcoz, this shows, when ppl are curious, its an opportunity to tel them bout what Christ did through us. Well, just to add. We gave these out at 12pm - 1pm. Normally, only 2-3 guards would be thr. Somehow, all were thr. Really, its nthg other than God's timing.
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life
**The reason I put "1" as part of my title was because I believe with the others that this wont be the only time God's Will will be done, but thr will be more. <3
