We were looking ahead to move downtown nearer to our children's primany school for about 8 mths now.....Many locations which we thought were good or perfect came and went (Sembawang cell ppl would probably know!!) as the price was simply too high in this current market.We had to work very tightly within many constrains such as COST, best time & availability to change/join schools, location near mrt,timing to secure THE right tenant for our current flat @ right price, right location for kids, etc, etc.
In fact on the recent places that we did not get, we were very much disappointed. I actully voiced it out to HIM (with some amt of disgruntle of course) And his Gracious reply was:If you really want it, I can probably make it happen for you, but its really not the BEST. Can you trust me for the BEST?
The rest is history....we thank God that in his perfection we can rent out our flat at the right price (within 90 mins of open hse on Sat) and we have gotten the PERFECT place @ the right price. (the very next day !! Sunday).The reason I am taking time to share the whole episode is encourage us all to really stick it in with GOD and trust Him for his goodness and grace that He really wants the very BEST for us all....But being the gentlman HE is , he does not have control unless we can surrender, learn to trust HIM. However to do so, it is really when we have experienced and have a on-going relationship with HIM then can we have the confidence & strength to take the step of faith.
Go ahead, explore GOD, get so Soaked up with him & EXPERIENCE HIS ABUNDANT LIFE FOR YOU !! Because it is really is in HIS so Amazing Love & plans for you to prosper, be in good health & enter His REST !!

Shawn & Eliz + Family
