Give thanks for one kind man

There is this chinese saying about giving coal in a snow storm and people would really be grateful for that right? The warmth that it would bring to a person heart and of course the physical warmth.

For this post, I do not know how to properly worded it, but it just keep lingering in my mind so much so that I am stopping my quiet time for a while to write this. I believe it might be the spirit prompting me and this post might do someone really some good out there.

He is a church friend that would send messages to folks around him from time to time. It might or might not be the words that he has written, but it is the thought that counts. The message which he send is very powerful and stirring especially if you are not feeling that good emotionally, but it is the "sending" that really touches me.

It is really one thing to call someone to say "hi, how are you" and quite another to actually send a message of encouragement and a little prayer for the person which you are sending it to.

This is the message that he had send:


"Dear heavenly father, the gentleman reading this is handsome, cool and strong and you love him. Help him live his life to the fullest. Please promote him spiritually and cause him to excel above his expectations. Help him shine in the darkest places where it is impossible to love. Protect him at all times, lift him up when he needs you the most and let him know when he walks with you, he will always be safe. Amen. God always loves you because you are his child, so enjoy the day that he has made for you"

Hope it would encouraged you as much as it did for me. The fact is, this is the day that the lord has made for you -so why not enjoyed it. The rest is really just the "bells and whistles".

There is a season and there is a reason for everything. I was a christian by birth but was so far from him. I attended Sunday and read doctrines and by the time I was twelve I know really deep stuff such as the ranking of angels but I know nothing about him.

I was a christian for so many years, attending church for so many Sundays but it was not a family member, nor a old church mate but a friend from my wife church that send an encouraging message about the love of God.

God really works in mysterious ways. If you are wondering where he is, with all your troubles and issues that seems insurmountable, he is there. If you cannot feel him or think he is very far away, note that it is by no chance that this post was written and it is by no mere coincidence that you manage to read this post.

This post was written for you.

I give thanks for a kind man, for with his message, I know that there are people that care, similarly no matter how bad your situation is -there would be a person that would care to listen to you and assist you in his or her best ability.

May his peace be with you and his joy be always in you.

Do not know how it would be -but thank God for this!

This week was an interesting week, maybe all along it has been great and wonderful but this week after choosing to give thanks, I am extremely grateful for things that have happen.

For those of you that know, I am writing about coffee makers (well, if you google coffee makers, I should come up as the top result), and so has been reading and writing numerous things about them.

It just happen that last week, I saw that keurig brand is marketed in singapore by UCC. This got me really interested, because there is a choice to market this brand of coffee maker in Singapore!

I thought it was a good opportunity, but that is about all. On Monday, I saw an old colleague, told him about this, and he encourages me to call and meet the UCC folks and that he might have some ways to market this product.

So, I called the next day (Tuesday), and the guy is very interested in the whole idea, wanted a meeting the next day (Wednesday). I meet the guy on Wednesday, have a great chat and would meet up for more discussion.

Moreover, he gave me a contact for my sweets business. Oh, yes I have submitted a tender for the sweets and is now trying to build this SKUs. Well, I take note of this contact and kept it.

Thursday morning, I gave the contact a call -she wants me to go down immediately! Well, surprisingly, but I went down. It was another good chat, she would feedback to her boss. Then I came back to "office", less than an hour later, she called me and said her boss wanted to meet tomorrow.

At this moment, I am writing even as I am going to meet the boss. I do not yet know what the result would be, but this week with the flow of events has been a great blessing from God.

I would not have meet so many people if there was not some divine intervention. Praise God.

In my heart, I hope that the deal would go through however, I am trusting him in all things and know that he would provides.

Imagine, if all things have not fallen into place, I would be having none of these. Now, no matter what happen, I know a few more person, get a lot more opportunity to sharpen my presentation and negotiation skills.

So, in all things give thanks. In the morning, I was still thinking if I should share this during the cell group meeting tonight and wonder if it is good to share, now I think, I should!

It would just lift somebody else spirit that is feeling down...:) Sometimes if you think about it, everything around your life happens for a reason...
