"I went outside and just talked to God, sat on the bench, lay on the floor, stared at the trees and skies. Then I read my Bible and came across Psalm 139, a favourite. And when I came to "even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you", the sun immediately came out behind the clouds and shone brighter than ever.
It was just a really beautiful moment, and I felt like God was saying He would always shine His light around me."

In the midst of procrasti-read-old-journals-ing in the library, I found this, from 3 1/2 years ago. I read through some prayers I said all that time ago too.
He really does listen, doesn't He?
...
I am so amazed by how far we have come together Papa God. From the little girl that used to go to church with her pink lunch-box bag routinely on Sundays to the almost-an-adult (in 3 months!) now who has bigger life issues to think about and conversations with You about the adventures we are heading towards.. it's so surreal. Where did all that time go?
Thank You for keeping Your promises to me even through all the years. :)
And when the moments come where I may feel discouraged, I know now that I just have to look back, reflect on how far we've journeyed hand in hand and KNOW that you are always going to be faithful.
As I continue to walk in the footsteps that 16-year-old me would never have even dreamed of, I can believe that 26-year-old me will be one day doing the same too. From glory to glory. :)
Love,
Dice
