Just within this few days alone, I witness so many 'coincidences'. Blessings beyond my imaginations..feels like, 'I never did thought that could happen. Is as though God hears and answer my every thoughts.
Today as I was walking out of the school via a different route, I bum into my child's parents. I see her everyday but this time she ask me where I was going. Told her I was going to Plaza Sing to get some materials to spend the day on Saturday to decorate up my class for my practicum.
"Why not you come over to my place. I do scrapbooking, I've lots of cloth and paper and you choose what you want". said my beloved Harmony's mum.
Ok why not I thought, since my intention was to look around for materials I could use and get some ideas..
I wasn't expecting to see abundance of them. I have no words to describe the extend of scrapbooking materials she has! She laughed and said that her stuff may gather up to hundreds of thousands. Never in my life have I met someone who owns that much or who are so into it. In fact, she does scrapbooking as a business and conduct classes. Something I love doing.
The lettering you see in the pictures, one font set cost about $500 and she has hundreds of them. And that's only lettering excluding the pictures and other fanciful stuff. Each Pat's Schoolhouse only have one set of alphabet and 4 pictures because they are expensive and she owns thousands of them! She even offered for me to come over to borrow them whenever I want and take the papers.
She then let me choose freely from the collection of scrap paper that she has and it was the most wonderful thing to do. If you know how much these papers cost, you'll know the extend of grace I felt heh I remember buying just a few sheets of scrap paper to make birthday cards for my fellow Befrienders from 'Made with Love' and it cost about twenty over. Even that I had to think twice. Papers are not cheap. But I love having lots of them to choose from.
I counted just now and there were 101pieces of patterned papers excluding the other stack of A4 colour sheets and felt materials she gave me. The most shocking thing was she turned back after saying bye and went to her room and gave me her whole set of colour glitters! I think it could total up to three hundred plus.
This afternoon, I happened to be there when my colleague had something new to give away which was something I'll not spend my money on buying now. And it fits perfectly.
Yesterday, I was offered to serve for Darlene Hillsongs counter for the following Sunday and i'm paid a fairly good amount.
Shortly after that, my ex job manager msn me to ask how I was. Was asking him if he still needs people at night to take care of the kids playing the computer and he said yes. And it was only yest morning while walking to work I was thinking of where I could work at night after my studies. It pays very well and plus it's a place I would still like to learn from. Greater motivation:)
Blessings back home...mum called to tell me that she saved a thousand dollar from having to buy grass and plant them in our new house. Yes nowadays you have to buy grass haha So happened the houses opposite was doing plumbing and had to dig out those grass:) mum ask if they need and and they said no and dig out even more when they realised she needs them heh
Faith pleases God. That's what I see as I write this. I remember having to decide whether if I should move to my current place given that I would be paying more. I felt the peace but when I calculated the cost, it was impossible. But I knew He was telling me to trust Him. I do not know how this works, but it's amazing how he stretches my money.
God can do beyond what we can think or imagine. I love the way he conveys his love to me:)
