Father Answers Prayers

A good friend wanted to bring her parents to my place for the TGIF Matthew party. She is very concerned about their salvation as they are quite old. When she brought up the matter to them, the father was willing but her mother refused. When she told me the news, we were both very disappointed. So I suggest we leave it to God but we pray hard. That was last week.
Today my friend called me and told me she brought up this matter again to her parents. Her brother was also together with them. This brother not only encouraged the parents to come to my place, but also inquired whether his wife can come too! My friend could not believe her ears! Both the brother and sister-in-law are unbelievers and have also scolded my friend for sharing the gospel.
I do not know what has happened, but I am very convinced that our Papa God hears our prayers and He answers all our prayers. All the glory to Him. Praise the Lord!

FATHER KNOWS BEST

I am not a person who is good with gadgets. I remember I needed my son to help out with the DVD player two years ago when friends came to my place to watch Kelvin's testimony. So I put in some determination to know at least how to get the machine works - with the help of my husband. Finally I manged to play some CDs and even get to watch some movies.
This year our church is celebrating Good Friday by sharing the gospel at home. We name it TGIF. And we will play the CD on Kelvin's wife this time round. So I open my home for the Matthew party again and I was very sure I know how to handle the gadget. We played the CD in church during last week cell meeting. Nothing came on the screen, we tried to push many buttons but no sound came out, but at least the picture came on. So we had to call in the experts and eventually managed to watch the whole thing. So my cell leader reminded me to try it at home. I was kept busy and forgot about it. I received the leader's sms reminder on Monday and I said I would try it on the next day.
In the afternoon I put the CD into the player. I saw the player displayed lights and the CD was moving but no picture nor sound came on. Then I remember the flash flood I 'enjoyed' in February. The telcos' workers came to change the boxes for me as they were all not working due to the water that came in through the window nearby. The repairman told me he had to removed the DVD wire as there just too many wires for him to handle! I completely forgot about the whole matter. Fortunately my husband was in Singapore. For the past years, he came back to Singapore in March for my birthday. Because I was not in Singapore this March, my husband postponed his trip to early April. Praise God for that because my husband finally manged to get the wires fixed (my son does not know how to do it, in fact the last time he messed up all the wires). Thank God that I still remember how to get this DVD player working and am now looking forward to watching this testimony with all friends who will come on TGIF . Hallelujah!
