I did not want to go out today.
A sense of guilt and shame sat on my chest.
But I woke up to a miracle-
What the Immigration told me might take weeks to sort out, got sorted out overnight.
I woke up with an unexpected entry approval in my inbox.
No flight ticket still, but that’s one tick box checked.
Do you remember Psalm 121:4 where it says the Lord never slumbers nor sleeps?
I am learning-
If He is working, then I can sleep.
Why should both of us stay up all night?
If you struggle with sleep like I used to, hold Psalm 121 close to your heart.
So I went out, I forced myself to head to F45 instead of moping around at home.
And God had more surprises in store for me.
I bumped into a wonderful junior whom I haven’t seen for years. Last night, he sent a note of encouragement and I thought to myself, “I wonder how he is doing.”
This morning, there he stood in my neighborhood.
With a big smile he said,
“You don’t know how big a blessing your IG is. You know there’s a whole chain of people praying for you. You won’t hear from them, but we are all behind you.”
God knew I needed the encouragement.
If you’re feeling down and alone, know this- His angels are praying for you, even when you don’t know or feel it.
