There’s a silver lining in everything that happens...

 

Aaawww…. so nice to have clean hair yet once again 🥰

There’s a silver lining in everything that happens…

We just have to look for it… and we will find it :-)

We discover that Daddy FECS can be a very good shampoo boy - next career change :-)

And that Little FECS can be a very sweet, caring and fun nanny to Baby FECS (just not the most safe one though.

In the midst of excruciating pain (especially in the beginning), there is so much joy and enjoyment, if one looks deep enough.

A joy that doesn’t depend on how pain-free we are, how affluence we are, how much material comfort we have, how many achievements we have made, how free we are. A joy that can only come from God. 

And just two days ago, I avoided yet another serious accident totally scalded free!!! How could it be that I went scalded free!!!! The thought of this potential accident sent cold sweat down my spine. The angels were there and shielded me, it must be (God knows just how much injuries I can take. God doesn’t give us what we cannot bear ❤️)

I have just learned, in the midst of sufferings, there are so many blessings that only God can bring that money and intelligence can’t buy. We just have to look deep enough. Bad things cannot take away the love God bestows on us.

I want to remember this lesson. I have to remember this lesson. I have painstakingly recorded this down.

Twice in a row, God brought me these verses in the span of the last two days - first in Chinese, then in English on two different occasions - God sure knows what my heart language is :-))

What are You trying to tell me, God? Here I am, God, I am listening:

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” - Romans 8:39

“因为我深信无论是死、是生，是天使、是鬼魔，是现在的事、是将来的事， 是高天之上的、是大地深处的或是其他受造之物，都不能使我们与上帝在主基督耶稣里赐下的爱分离。” - 罗马书 8:38-39

No matter how incapable I think I am and how sinful I am, God loves me. He sent His Son to die for me, settling my debts once and for all, and all these does not depend on my performance. I am deeply loved by God. He has answered me.

I hold it close to my heart. I want to remember these days. When sufferings press in, God presses in even more.

Oh God, You are so good, all the time ❤️

 

You have a name. Your name is Jesus. I am so so glad to have found You ❤️ 

好疼，好疼呀，被神疼爱的疼 :-)
