It is amazing how God made me well enough this morning to serve Him in the Worship Team. Last night my flu was very bad (sneezed so many times that I actually felt tired) and my fever was about 37.8 degrees Celsius.
I messaged the Worship Team members, my God-sister and a few other friends to pray for me as I sensed the work of the evil one was trying to weaken me to the point where I was unable to serve the Lord. My left knee was still giving me problem.
When I woke up this morning, I told the Lord no matter how I was feeling I would still go to church and serve Him. By His grace, I was able to do just that but I must admit it was a torturous moment for me as my knee was quite painful after a while. The first few songs were quite fast and because of that, there were a lot of movements of my legs. That kind of stressed my knee a little.
There was an interesting experience that I want to share though - despite of all the pain I had to endure, I actually enjoyed worshipping the Lord as I played the drums. I realised since I cannot do anything about the pain and the slight flu that I was still having, I might as well just praise the Lord with whatever I had. That was truly refreshing for me as it allowed me to understand what it meant to worship the Lord in spirit and in truth.
I also told the Lord that my human abilities could only allow me to do limited stuff this morning and asked Him to help me as I played. He did not fail me and answered my prayers. I noticed I actually played better today as compared to other times when I was well. I even played some interesting rhythms for two songs. Thanks be to Him for that!
Well, no words can comprehend how God works so mightily when I am at my weakest.
I shall stop here. Thank you to those of you who have prayed and are still praying for me.
A brand new week of adventure awaits you and me!
Oh yah, Liverpool beat Chelsea 2 - 0! Well done, Reds! The Manchester United - Arsenal match starting soon! I am hoping the Red Devils will lose later so that Liverpool can chase up. It may seem impossible for the Reds to do so but I am still hopeful they may surprise the soccer world with a late comeback! :)
"But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:9-10
"I can do everything through him who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13
