For some reason, my cursor refused to work properly today. First I thought it was just the mouse's problem, but when I tried using the touchpad on my laptop, the cursor was also stubborn in not trailing my finger accordingly. I had to go back to using the traditional keyboard short-cuts that one could almost forget existed - commands like Alt-Tab (to switch between the various running programs), the Windows button (to access the Start menu), Alt-S (to save) etc etc. And of course, because I didn't have all available commands stored in my own memory, my functions on the computer were severely limited.

Strange enough, when I reached home, everything was fine. Humm.

The mouse threw a tantrum?

Whatever the case, today's a good day! It started with a miracle -

Last night, I went to bed feeling super horrible - feverish, headachy, sniffling… And I was telling God that I really needed energy for the next day (i.e. today), which was to start at 8.30am and end late in the evening, and was jammed packed with lessons, projects and the like. As God would have it, my QT for the day was on 2 Cor 12, about how Paul had a thorn in his flesh to prevent him from being conceited due to the exceedingly great revelations that God has been giving him, and how, in response to his call to God to take away the thorn, God answered instead that His grace is sufficient for him, for His strength and power is made perfect in weakness. I totally identify with Paul, not just in terms of personality, but even in terms of anointing and spiritual giftings. I have been asking God for Paul's mantle and anointing (double-portion of course), i.e. the gift of apostleship, and yes the revelations, which have been increasingly coming by God's grace. But because of this, the passage was such a timely reminder of the need to rely on God's grace (i.e. undeserved favour!), and that it's His grace that'll sustain me, not anything I can do on my own. And so, in my sick state, I can be so excited, for it's in weakness that His power is made perfect! So I told God, "Your grace is sufficient for me. Sustain me Lord, with Your grace."

And when I woke up - no fever, no headache, only slight sniffles, and full of energy for the day! It was such an amazing transformation that it cannot be attributed to anything else than God's divine healing and intervention and provision!

He is good lah.

It was a fruitful day too, managed to get quite a fair bit done. Am still honestly quite stressed over the many projects that need to be done, the many demands that people are placing on me, with one eye on the lookout for job opportunities, ministry, etc...

But His grace is sufficient, and therefore I will boast in my weakness - I can say for sure I feel like giving up, but only His grace and faithfulness sustains me. I may be strong, but that's only because it is He who's in me that is strong.
