A testimony from His blessed son,
Matthew Heng (Singapore)
Indeed God never fails to amaze me. Last night I was getting a little worried about having testifychrist.blogspot.com to die off, but the Lord assured me while I was going around telling others about this site. An old secondary school friend of mine told me to not worry, and to do all things "in His time". "In His time".. I took a while to absorb that, and I knew it was the Lord's message to me. In fact, He has touched my life today, that I myself have a testimony to share with everyone.
Earlier today, I was seated at Starbucks (at Tampines) enjoying a nice cup of coffee and reading a book,
Drawing Near by John Bevere (one of His blessed child who was chosen to spread His Word). I had a church meeting at 8pm and it was merely 4pm then. I had no intention of going home, but neither did i want to stay at Starbucks till 7pm. At 5pm, i realised that I could have went down to Christ the King Chuch (At Ang Mo Kio, which is usually about 1.5 hours away from where I was) for the weekday Mass at 5.30pm. Somehow, I had a strong prompting to head down to Christ the King Church. I never understood why and I told the Lord that there is ABSOLUTELY no reason for me to rush down for I will miss the Mass anyway. Still, the Lord continued to prompt to hurry. In obedience, I took a final gulp of my coffee and rushed to the bus terminal. Many times I really wanted to look at my watch as I kept worrying (and somehow I knew), that I would miss the Mass. It was then that Matthew 6:31 struck me, and that I should not worry. In fact, I had even envisioned myself in church celebrating His presence. Thus, I boarded the bus at the terminal and headed to church. I reached church at 6pm, and I knew I missed the Mass, thus, I made my way to the Adoration Chapel and decided to spend the time to dwell in His presence. 10 minutes later, I heard the church bells ringing (this signifies that the Mass will start in 5 minutes). It was then that I remembered that weekday Masses start at 6.15pm and not 5.30pm! And as how I envisioned it to be, I was together with all my other brothers and sisters in Christ, praising God and listening to His Word. God prompted me to hurry as He knew I was able to make it in time! I didn't have to know what I was doing, rather, I thank God for what He has done for me. Praise God!
In fact, it wasn't just that one incident today, but another just a couple of minutes ago! When I reached home, the first thing I wanted to do was to publish my testimony (refering to the above paragraph) but instead, I had a strong prompting from the Lord that I should do my QT (quiet time), first. I told the Lord that I really can't wait to publish it, and I'll do the QT later. But the Lord accepted no compromises; after restarting my internet, clicking the "refresh" button a hundred and one times, I could never seem to log on to blogger.com. I could go to ANY other sites, EXCEPT blogger.com. For a moment I felt rather irritated, then I realised how much God wanted me to do my QT first. After my QT, blogger.com had ZERO problems. And that's how I ended up here, typing this testimony, to testify His one, true, amazing presence!
