rainy days


Rainy days. Sore throat days.

Singapore is rainy these days. But that doesn't necessarily mean cooler days. Sometimes the clouds are hanging so low and so thick, you could hardly breathe because of the humidity. You could almost see the reflection of the city lights on the low hanging clouds.

Hence the clinics are filled with people having flu, sore throat and what-nots. How do I know? Well, I was one of them queueing with a friend for almost 2 hours.

So, mornings are sunny. Afternoons are rainy. But that's not always the case.

Like last Thursday.

The kids had been praying hard that it would not rain in the afternoon because we were planning a picnic at the beach in Sentosa. But the whole week it was always raining almost the whole day, so we were kind of skeptical.
Not the kids.

My son still has that conviction that God will answer our prayers according to His perfect will. So of course it would not rain.
To my son a picnic at the beach is God's perfect will.

So there we were at the beach with our best friends. Lovely weather. Lovely sand. Lovely sunset.

Thanks to God who knows what we need that day.
