My God Is Good!!

Jesus thank You!! My devotions are getting better in quality.I can be more concentrated when I'm worshiping and praying. God Your presence is so good!!I was jumping up and down in joy as we said "I love you!!" to each other!!Jesus I love You!!I was also praying for the salvation of my family members at Taiwan; I really need to call them or write them more and share God's love with them! I feel bad because my dad is always the one calling us, and I rarely write to him...Jesus help me and remind me to spend more time on my family! I pray that all of them will be saved!!

"I will sacrifice a freewill offering to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good." (Psalms54:6)

Tonight I imitated what we did at the conference: I prayed for word of knowledge so I can do campus invasion. Here's a list of things I got:

A boy with a baseball cap, black backpack, baggypants, and holding a skateboard.
White fountain.
Someone smoking and pacing around.
Banana.
Fish, Sashimi. (Was I hungry when I prayed...?)
A girl with long black hair on a bike.

As I prayed, Jesus reminded me of (Matthew10:24) "A student is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master" If my Lord was persecuted, how can I expect myself to be accepted and praised? I need to go out there with the willingness to be ridiculed and scorned by others. Out of love Jesus suffered the pain, so I will do it out of love as well. Lord where You go I'll go, what You say I'll say, and what You pray I'll pray!Then I went out.

First I saw a guy on a wheelchair, so I ran up to him. But he started speeding forward! I continued to run after him, but he just went faster and faster! "Dude, this guy's pretty quick!" I thought. Finally I had to shout, "WAIT!" He heard me and slowed down to a stop.

"Hi um...this, this might sound...a little weird, but I just really want to pray for you," I said, trying to catch my breath.
"...You've been chasing after me this whole time?" He looked at me kinda funny

I was embarrassed, but I just said "yeah" and asked again if I can pray for him. He gladly accepted the offer. His name is Arial, and it turned out that he was born with this disease that would paralyze his legs sometimes, making him use a wheelchair; he could walk, but with great difficulty. Arial is a Christian, and he had prayed to God for healing many times before.

So I said a short prayer,"Dear Lord, in Your name I command the paralysis to go away, that he will be healed, because in Your kingdom, there is no sickness. In Jesus name I pray, Amen." Then I asked Arial to try walking around.
"Is this some kind of experiment?" Arial muttered as he limped around.
"Well, I still feel the same," Arial said after awhile. Not knowing what to do, I just assured him that God will heal him.
"Yeah, sometimes it just doesn't happen the way you think it would. Like God's giving you the seed when you asked for an apple," Arial replied. He thanked me and took off.

As I walked on, I realized I should have prayed for him a second time! Man! Then I saw the boy in my vision! He was holding a skateboard, and though he wore a hood instead of a cap, I was pretty sure it was him. Unfortunately, he was chatting with his buddy, and I chickened out. Then I saw the girl with the long black hair on the bike! But again I chickened out and she passed me by. Then I saw about five kids smoking. I did see a person smoking in my vision, but I didn't dare to approach the group. O LORD! This is alot harder than I thought! Discouraged, I started to walk back. That's when I saw the guy smoking by himself, pacing back and forth, like in my vision! By God's grace, I walked up to him.

"Hello, this is really random but...I just feel like I need to pray for you" I said.
The guy (his name's Alex) was friendly and accepted my offer.
"So is there anything particular you would like me to pray for you about?" I asked.
"Well I've been stressing in school and I really miss my family...it's weird, I have been thinking alot about God lately, and you showed up to pray for me...I guess God heard me," Alex said.
"I guess He did," I answered, appearing calm on the outside while on the inside I was going crazy with excitement O MY GOODNESS THIS IS TOO AWESOME!!!JESUS THANK YOU!!!

So I prayed for Alex, and I went back to my dorm. On my way back, I realized that I should have asked him if he knew Jesus or not. MAN I missed the perfect opportunity! O JESUS WHAT HAVE I DONE!!!I MESSED UP AGAIN!!This is so absurd!I felt like crying and laughing at the same time...Lord, I need Your help, please continue to train me...

You see, God uses people in their weakness, if God would use me, He would certainly use you on your campus.

"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." (Matthew5:14~16)
