"Everything is possible with God. Dont let your mind get in the way."

Such a phrase is very common sense in church, though it really sounds wierd to me. Since the creator created us with brains to think, how come its this 'thinking' that stumbles most. Well, its interesting nontheless.

I must say that getting my Class 3 driver's license on the first attempt was really beyond me. Toally impossible with me when i think, but not beyond God. To put it all in a sentence, it was one big shakespearen comedy when all ends well, just without the marrying. For testimony sake and more importantly for memorial sake, this is where i will be sharing briefly about how big a miracle this was to me.

Monetary wise, i managed to get a partial sponsorship from my aunt, but to tell the truth, when i went to take the TP, my bank only left 5 bucks; for the rest of the 25 days of the month. If i were to fail, i dont even know how am i going to go for another lesson, much less talk about taking the test a second time round in the near future.(Right now, God had taken over my finance and i am sufficiently and joyfully sponsored by heaven). Also the test day itself did not start well with my instructor 20 mins late and the sky raining. What's more, i got scolded by my instructor just before the test for nearly colliding with a stationary car. It couldnt look any worse, but God took what i did not deserve and placed it in my pocket, then looked at me, knowing that i can do nothing else to repay Him but only thank Him. By the time i took the test, the weather had cleared, and what's more, my prayers were answered when He gave me a surprisingly lenient tester.

Lord my deeds are ever before you
Yet you chose to look on me with love.
Knowing that once too often i'll stray
But the gentleman that You are
You have never forced me to be with You
That, only God can do, and God's You

I praise You O God of Heaven and Earth
For only You deserve all praise
All creation was made from unfanthomable depth of Your wisdom
Both living and non-living things alike
What are we humans, that you have even considered and cared for us
To even shed Thy Holy Son's blood to redeem us from our supposed destiny

When I think of the goodness of Jesus
And all He has done for me
My soul cries out "I'm not worthy"
Thats why I am thankful, thats how we all should be

I was but a worm; the worst of all men and a hypocrite unrivalled
Still though You know these all, you kept me by your side
For a period I was a son of darkness, but now I'm in the light
O Lord if not for Your Great love, what would become of me?
I would have continued to be a worm; the worst of all men and still a hypocrite unrivalled.

I prayed and You answered me; 'Yes', 'No' and most times 'Wait'
But the sin inside me says 'Go Ahead'
O Lord May You be proven Faithful over and again
For many a times i tripped and would have fallen
had not your arms of Love and Healing guarded me.

I will say of the Lord that You are my Strength
and in You, all things are possible
So I will praise You regardless
And may i too be found faithful till the end.

May I decrease that You may increase in my life O Lord. Amen.
