A message from a friend

I received a mail from Singapore today! Been waiting for this mail for quite a while, but i didn't expect it to be a A4 size envelope so i was very excited when i saw it. I love receiving things in the mail, it may be slow, but the feeling of opening up the envelope and anticipating what is inside just makes me feel so excited!

Anyway i got a really sweet card from my dear Susan. And coincidentally, i got one of my essays back today which i didn't really do well for. Was quite disappointed when i saw my grade but i am thankful that at least i didn't fail. When i saw the card she sent me, i felt even more encouraged, and I felt that God has allowed this card to arrive on this day for a reason.
Background info: A mail from Singapore to Aussie takes about 5 days, so i should have received it last week, but i didn't. And it so happened the last time we both sent each other something and both of us didn't receive it. So this time round, we both thought it got lost in the mail, but i actually received it today. Now i guess i know why the mail came today = )



The front of the card


This particular phrase caught my attention: "I prayed that he will be with you whatever you go through, and that his guiding presence will always shine his light on you".


To me, it feels like a kind of assurance from God, that even when i do badly, or when i face something bad, he will be with me. And the last paragraph was very very true. It goes..." I didn't hear God speak back, he hardly ever does...But deep within my heart, I'm sure he heard every word.


How true is that, and comforting as well, that God is always there and you can be sure that he hears every single prayer you say to him.



The back of the card with some lovey dovey message...secret!


Thanks darling for this card, i really like it a lot. Plus i love the picture as well! Very thoughtful indeed. Now we can be sure that our mail can actually get to each other and not be lost halfway like the last time haha. Many thanks!
