On Thursday afternoon I decided to head down to the beach at East Coast Park for a time of meditation. I reached my destination and sat down under one of the sheds on the beach and I began to ask Abba Daddy when my blessings would come. I looked out to the sea in front of me and saw many container ships and oil tankers and I thanked Him for the prosperity of the land but when would be my turn to be prospered?
And just as the words left my tongue, my mobile phone rang and a financial planner from AIA on the other end asked me whether I could spare her 20 minutes for her to explain how I could plan for my future. Imagine here I was asking Abba when my blessings would be given me and there was the agent wanting to show me financial planning! where is the connect I wondered.
And then suddenly I realized that Abba was telling me an important message - there will be such a blessing that I really need to be ready for it. And I saw for the first time how Abraham must have felt when Abba told him that he would be the father of many multitudes and yet he did not have a single heir to his name; it was not an easy road for Abraham especially a finite mind trying to comprehend what the Infinite Abba wanted to bestow upon him.
And so I am encouraged to trust Abba Daddy for my bountiful blessings and I am thankful.
