God works in mysterious ways
I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay
you ever get one of those feelings that just makes you feel all crazy inside?
one of those feelings where you just want to knock on everyone's door on your hall and just scream with joy?
one of those feelings where you just want to grab any random person and just tell them what's on your mind?
one of those feelings deep-down inside where you just know in your heart that God's at work?
God definitely works in mysterious ways. it's 9 AM, and i haven't slept a wink yet, but i wouldn't feel right with myself falling asleep without sharing this.
as many of you may know, richard wang accepted Christ tuesday evening. you know, a few years ago, i would have never thought that i would be saying those words.
i first met richard in 7th grade at first colony middle school. got to know him better throughout the year, especially after rooming with him during the orchestra trip to Chicago. i think it was in 8th grade where i finally decided to invite him to go to middle school fellowship with me.
haha and you know, i don't really remember if he ever went with me. i know he went one time in middle school because i remembered playing ball afterwards, but other than that, i think he basically rejected me every other time. but i guess that just adds to the story.
nothing really happened until last year. it's interesting, because after my car accident where i totalled my car, i was just thinking to myself, "ok, so i know everything happens for a reason, but what was the reason for this?"
sure enough, it soon hit me. i learned so much from that night, promising myself to always take driving seriously and to never take things for granted.
that same night, i talked to richard online until the wee hours of the morning. i shared with him my experiences, though to this day, im not sure why. perhaps because no one else was online? only God knows, but i know He set up the meeting for a reason.
since that time, i've been praying for God to really touch his heart because i knew that he was searching. it was also such an encouragement to know that i wasn't the only one praying or trying to reach out to richard.
now here we are. about a year later, and lo and behold, richard has accepted Christ. after i heard, i was just speechless. i felt like a 3-year-old kid again with a 3-word vocabulary. all i could think of or say were words like "wow, man, awesome"...i had always dreamed of this day, and the day had finally come.
