My 3rd post today =)

Acted in a role play today as Granny. Had tremendous fun! He gave us ideas as we rehearsed and helped me put my script/storyline together. The audience laughed so much, something I did not expect. I'm really proud that I have done my best and 2 of my colleagues said I acted well. That is a bonus. I thank colleague C for giving me so many tips on how to act and what to wear.

I am somewhat surprised that I am having fun! I'm really thankful that I am learning to let go and have fun. I hope I would always remember to have fun and enjoy the process, in most of my endeavours, and not to always take things so seriously and to remember to have FUN!

How should I view prayer when I am not sure if God will answer it in the way I expected? Wouldn't I be setting myself up for disappointment if I prayed, believing with all my heart, but things do not turn out the way I hope for?

I have been struggling with the above question for some time. Recently, I have a slightly better/clearer perspective.

I asked myself: Does God not answer prayer? Yes, He does, but he might not answer it in the way I expect.

What then? How then can I say with conviction to myself and others, that God can, and want to heal, provide, etc?

I realise that God has a Will of His own, and can decide whether or not to answer my prayers the way I want them to be answered!

Moving forward, I shall learn to trust that He has a good plan for my life. The way He answers my prayers would be the best for me, that His ways are higher than mine. And I will continue to pray, to claim my rights as a daughter and princess of the Living God.

Decided to blog again, as I sense the need to record His goodness, as a form of inspiration for myself when I feel down, to remember his goodness, to remember He is for me and His plans are good.

It was open house. It was my birthday too. Amazing, he orchestrated for 5 of my colleagues to eat lunch with me and to play at the slide at T3. I had so much fun because I believe I might not have played if I were by myself or with another group of friends. Their "daring-ness" to play, help me shed my self-consciousness. I enjoyed myself thoroughly.

I am also thankful that a friend came all the way to open house to celebrate my birthday and to try to share my world.

He led me to check one of my bank accounts and I found out that the bank has begun charging me due to some changes in the account. I normally would not check this account and it so happened that this time I checked it the first month the bank implemented these new rules. I managed to get some of the fees waived and would be closing the account. Hopefully, this would give me some focus in my management of finances.
