God of all possibilites...

Another thanksgiving to share :)

Our wireless keyboard suddenly stopped working. Mun Loong thought it was battery problem so we changed new battery but it didn't work. So Mun Loong went to buy a new one today. However, it didn't work too. So he called Meng Piow to borrow a cabled keyboard to try to trouble shoot the problem. The cabled keyboard also didn't work.

He was on his hands and knees with tools, opened up the desktop system and tried to fix the problem. At that moment, it was time for me to fetch Samuel back from taekwando.

Samuel asked where was daddy. I told him fixing the keyboard problem. He was hopeful (the boys needed the keyboard to play computer games) and asked if the keyboard could work. I told him cannot.. Buy new one also cannot.

So, I suggested to Samuel to pray. He shook his head and said keyboard is non-living thing To that I replied, "So? Our God is a God of all possibilities. Non-living also can pray." He said Mommy prayed.

As we were walking up the stairs, I prayed and asked God to help us solve and fix the keyboard and just finished praying when we reached our doorstep.

After Samuel changed, we went to the study room and then Mun Loong exclaimed with relief that the wireless keyboard can work. Hallelujah! Prayer works :) I told Mun Loong that we just prayed and related the incident to him about Samuel's response about non-living thing cannot pray for God to work.

A seed of faith has been planted in Samuel's heart today, I believe, that God can answer our sincere prayers, whether living or non-living things. He saw with his own eyes his daddy with tools all over, system opened up and trying to fix the problem. He experienced first hand experience that it's not our human effort that counts. It is God who works through our simple faith in prayer.


John 16:24 in BMC we learnt that, "until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive and your joy will be complete."
We are grateful to God for allowing us to share this testimony to Samuel.. And tomorrow morning, Daniel and Gabriel will hear about this miracle as well :)
With A Grateful Heart,
