Joy instead of bitterness!!

Hey everyone,I'm so glad and excited as this is my first post in this blog..there'll be more to come..I know most of you are sitting for your mid-terms,so,I just want to encourage all of you to study hard and do your best..would like to take this opportunity to share my testimony..

Last night,after finishing work,I headed to the bus stop at the entrance of Ikano Power Centre.I was supposed to board the 8.30 pm free shuttle bus to the Kelana Jaya LRT station.After waiting for a while,there was an announcement from the management announcing that the shuttle bus is cancelled.I was disappointed as I wanted to go for church prayer evening.Without wasting time,I called my father,who was in a meeting;therefore unable to come fetch me.Any hope of going to church that night was gone.I decided to wait for the next bus which was scheduled at 9.30 pm.Trying to kill time,I went to Popular and just walked around.After walking for 45 minutes,I head to the bus stop,expecting to see the bus stationed there.Much to my disappoinment,there was no bus waiting,just a crowd of people.I overheard the conversation between two girls regarding the bus.They were actually complaining and expressing their concerns.As I listened more,I couldn't help but join in as well!I started chatting with them and even defended the bus driver(they complained about him..haha).

Anyway,I asked them if they would like to share a taxi to the KJ LRT station ,if the 9.30 bus doesn't come.True enough,there was an announcement again,announcing that the 9.30 bus is cancelled.To cut the long story short,we managed to get a taxi.There was a guy who also shared the taxi with us as he overheard our conversation.I thank God for sending a taxi to us so soon.I don't remember praying to God,asking for a taxi.But I believe God was behind the whole ordeal.Although I didn't get to talk mich with the other three passengers,much less share Christ with them;I thank God for keeping me cool and calm throughout the whole ordeal.Unlike the two girls whom I was chatting with,I didn't complain or get bitter about it.As I walked back home,I was praising God and giving thanks to Him.Although I was quite tired by the time I got home,I was filled with joy and happiness.Call me weird if you want,but I couldn't care less!This ordeal taught me how God can turn something seemingly bad into something good.Praise the Lord,God is good!!
