Gideon's 300 testimony - YeeVoon



I was glad to go to Philippines after a lapse of 9 years. It was a leap of faith for me as I have to leave my kids to the care of their dad at night. As my husband need to arrange for his business trip, I had to plan my trip back to Malaysia 2 days earlier.






The most unforgettable event during the camp was the Outdoor Adventure. Though I spoke loudly most of the time, when it came to the 'leap of faith' during the OA, I became as small and timid as a mouse. It was really scary as I had no one to depend on and I had only God to turn to.

On the 3rd October when Ps. James shared about we can learn to hear from God, I received a word and it's from Phil 4:6-7. It's a very commonly used verse but it was embossed to me at that time. Because at that time, I was very anxious to hear from God and when God asked me not to be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, I literally 'toned' down immediately.

Upon returning, I was awoken one night with a fearful dream. God woke me up to pray immediately. I was prompted to call one of the church leaders to pray with me to overcome my fear.

I was reminded of how fearful i was during both the OA and after this dream. Both occasion my husband were not with me and I could only rely on God entirely. And I would feel that the 'peace of God that transcends all understanding really guarded my heart and mind in Christ Jesus'.


In conclusion, I'm full of awe as to how God is working in my life. God has not forgotten me, and I feel close to Him.

Amen!!
