Feel good/bad stories of the week

Feel Good Story #1

So there was a non-Halloween outreach event for kids at church this past Friday to purposely provide an alternative for kids to get candy and have fun instead of the usual Trick-or-Treating. My mom decided to ask two of our neighbours to attend. Initially the 8 year old and 3 year old agreed to go, but somehow on that day, they were tired and said no. Since my mom already bought them Happy Meals, she just went next door to give them the food. Inside, my mom was praying that somehow the two kids would change their mind. Then a phone call came and the kids' dad said they changed their minds! My mom told me that the two kids had so much fun at church playing those mini games and eating the snacks and the 9 year old even rose his hand to "accept Christ"! Whether or not it was for real, I have no clue, but I'm just amazed and happy at how God can suddenly change how things go and use a simple outreach event at church to plant seeds into little hearts. We just need to trust in God, even when things look bleak and just let His perfect plan reveal itself instead of getting too caught up and worried about it.


Feel Bad Story #1

As I was mowing the lawn yesterday morning (surprisingly, the weather was somewhat warm on a November morning!), I felt a sharp sting on my knee. I was wondering what it was because I didn't see anything on my track pants. I lifted up my pant-leg and was shocked to see a bee had stung my knee! Why are these little yellow and black critters still alive in November?!?! It was super annoying because I had to run inside to put on antibiotics. Good thing my knee didn't swell up.


Feel Good Story #2

Had an opportunity to meet up with some university friends for a birthday dinner last night AND old high school friends for birthday bubble tea last night! Good times chilling and catching up and just enjoying good food and drinks! Sometimes you need that to take your mind off of studying, marks, school, and that sort of stuff. Birthday celebrations are the best!


Feel Good Story #3

So last night was Jason's last night at home without his parents, so it was perfect opportunity to pull a prank. Mysterious window-banging and ring-the-doorbell-and-run-away acts were so jokes, especially for people who get freaked out easily when home alone. Having Alden as a crossfire casualty was a bonus! Anyway, all in all, good laughs and good scares really made the night one to remember! Good job, yodel partner in crime! =)
