God is super good!
He surpasses all dreams and imagination.

It started in October 2017 where I had the chance to visit Hong Kong along with my ex-colleague. I’ve never been there, but I remembered I once prayed to God, a long time ago, to be able to explore the world, not for work, but leisure. At least before His 2nd coming :). And so, with no preparation, I boldly went.

Long story short, I visited Hong Kong Disneyland (it’s a must-visit place in Hong Kong), and unexpectedly I enjoyed the trip there, especially the fireworks part at the end of the day. It was so magnificent and amazingly beautiful, it got me crying. I thought to myself, and also God, that it was so beautiful and I couldn’t thank Him enough to have a privilege to visit the place. It was never in my wildest dream to visit Hong Kong, let alone Disneyland – “a land of happiness”. At that moment, I truly experienced what it means to have God exceeding even your wildest dream!

Still, the doubtful me thought if I could ever visit Disneyland again.

Fast forward to Feb 2018, when suddenly my boss called me in to announce the top sales assistants in my division as there will be a reward of going to Disneyland Hong Kong. They had 12 slots for 12 people. Without my knowledge, my boss didn’t fill all 12 with assistants, she deliberately put some names – office people – to join the trip.

To my surprise, she put my name as one of those lucky ones! I was stunned and overwhelmed at the same time. I even questioned myself of what I have done to deserve all this. She bluntly said she just felt like giving me a spot! She said it’s a form of appreciation.

To me, having a stable job is already one thing I am deeply grateful of. But another appreciation?
THAT IS UNDESERVED FAVOR!
And I was the chosen one! Praise be to God! Of all employees she could have preferred, it was me!

A little background about the industry I am working in, which is retail, we have different divisions. And those sales assistants are under sales and operational division, while I am under a product division. So, it was clear that whoever was winning the competition, they’d go. As simple as that. But for me? A product person? With no relation to any direct sales?
How on earth would I get involved in it?
If it wasn’t Him dropping that thought in my boss’ mind, no one would.

And so, I could not contain my happiness and excitement, I told God – He’s my best buddy to share everything with – and He reminded me how I thought to myself back when I was watching those fireworks at Disneyland – crying coz I was in awe – of when I would visit this place of happiness again. He made me cry in joy, even more, to see that not only He is super good and caring, He is also God who listens and remembers even my slightest thought!
Even when I was in doubt!
And He was giving me another chance in 6 months! Not even a year!

Don’t you see He just loves me so much? He loves me more than He loves anyone else. He loves to surprise me, to make me happy and He delights in seeing me happy, too.

How can I not love the Lord?

He is so faithful in granting me small things, I now dare to ask for bigger things from Him. Disneyworld!
