God had helped me!

Last night, my mind was filled with piles of homeworks and I told myself that I was not going to sleep to do the homeworks and took the coffee. But as the old habit, I ended up watching the anime. And out of blue, an acquaintance knocked the door of my facebook. I ended up in the conversation with him. As it was very late, my enthusiasm and determination began to evaporate in the high speed. My body made the way to the bed and my eyes were shut off to the darkness.

Next morning, as usual, I prayed, "Remind me each morning of your constant love, for I put my trust in you. My prayers go up to you; show me the way I should go." (Ps 143:8) I was determined to finish the homeworks for submission the next day. But at the same time, I was worried about displeasing God if I did not go to the church today. I asked Him to help me to finish my works by the evening. So that I could make it for the evening mass. So my mum drove me to the school in the morning and I found myself busy like the bee in the computer lab. What happened next? I finished it! Just 30 minutes early before 4 o'clock which I thought I would finish by then. Praise the Lord! Amen. Then I remembered the verse, "Don't worry about anything, but in all your prayers ask God for what you need, always asking with a thankful heart." (Phil 4:6) Thanks be to God.

My mum drove me to the church in the evening. I thanked God because I made it on time for the mass. I found my companion who was going for the same mass. I had thought like this, "Wow, God's so good to me. He helped me finish my works and He even sent my companion to occupy the room in the cage where I can rest for a while before the mass."

After the mass, they gave out the booklet which highlighted the priests and their testimonies in the priesthood. After reading the stories, I found myself in the deep thought. My mind was swimming around the priesthood because I was desiring to give my all to Jesus. But I will leave everything to Him and is ready to obey and execute what He wants me to do. Perhaps I need to talk to the priest in the three days away. I could not help but let this verse captured me, "If anyone wants to come with me, he must forget himself, carry his cross, and follow me." (Matt 9:24)
