God gives surprises

By:Mark Rubilla

It was last year, when I saw this book called "The Message  Remix: SOLO" in the bookstore and I desired that but I don’t have money to buy it. Every time I saw the book, I grabbed it and scanned each pages. There was one time when I went to National Bookstore, just doing my window shopping and I saw again that book then I read some part of it. I was blessed, it connects to our previous lesson that day, it was the same text. Fast forward, I asked someone who worked at the OMF about the price of that book with my discount part of the Word 4U today. Then on, I ignored it for how many days. Days have passed, they sent me a text message asking me if I have already brought the book and I replied "Not yet." I did not realize that question gave a way for me to have my own book. Fast forward, they said in the text "See you this Sunday". However, I did not saw them yet someone told me "I have something in the car, ask me later after the service." I asked him, then I was amazed when it wrapped with gift wrapper and with the message written it in "Continue to serve the Lord with diligence, you are a blessings. "

God really has a timing that our mindset can't comprehend. Time that we once impatience with, and we don't see it in our eyes but as we put our thoughts to Him, we can visualize the perfect picture and refined gold in it. It’s a treasure from God's hand.
