No need for anymore clothes.

I remember in my 2nd year in Sydney, just returning from Malaysia. I told myself that i was not going to do any shopping to buy any clothes for the entire year, I just already had enough and do not need anymore! And i tell God everything so i told Him this too, that i have to much clothes, i really don't need to buy any more, and i was happy with what i had. So i joyfully kept to my word.

Towards the end of the year, i won a competition, First Prize. It was the one whereby there was suppose to be an interview for the finalist chosen but they were too busy to conduct the interview and i won anyway! Part of the prize was AUD1000 to spend on the clothes of their brand.

I still find it so amazing. God is true to His word, He will provide. We need not seek these things but seek first His Kingdom. He will provide everything else. When i look back though, what i wished i did though, was that i shared some of the credit with my beloved friends. 

" But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you " - Matthew 6:33

Remembered also that the day before i won this competition, the Houselady of the boarding house i stayed in tore my housing contract infront of me because i won't not agree with her wanting me to change the room i was in to a room i did not want to stay in, because there was no reason to treat me that unfairly and give me a smaller room facing the main highway in which she already knew i did not want to say in.

I just trusted that God would look after me and provide for me in confidence.

Then when i won the competition, a friend from the same college placed a big " Congratulation's sign " up for me at the college board. And the housing lady, she humbly Congratulate me.

Its funny how the way God provided the next accommodation for me just a few days before my class started. It was when i said out loud " God i do not care anymore!" ( as i tried calling about 30 times  the housing i inspected/interviewed for the day before,  and no one picked up ) the phone rang and i was accepted to stay at a beautiful boarding house ( Reminding me He cares, and He will provide). Also before the interview for this boarding house i bummed into my friend who introduced this place for me to stay on the street and He just prayed for me there and then that if its God's will i will stay there, and that He would provide for me.

And at this housing, it was a Bible School associated with a church which my previous housing lady went to. Its so strange how everything worked out, but i learnt not to judge people. The next housing was so lovely, the lady even gave me a free room to do my sewing!!!! 

ALL I CAN SAY, GOD PROVIDES. SEEK HIM FIRST. TRUST HIM. His timing is perfect! He never fails :) In your weakness you may boast. Because His glory shines through in His goodness and power!

For our heavenly Father knows we need all these things.
