10:50 AM
It finally came! The official letter from MINDEF authorising me to collect my Pink IC from CMPB on Friday. Praise God! I'm really thankful now, relieved and happy too. Everything is finally settled and I can move on now with my life as a whole now.
Actually on hindsight, these few days haven't been a total waste. God has been leading me to learn how to be patient and how to trust Him, even when things don't seem to be going your way. Just as I started to let go, to trust Him, and stopped bugging LTA Faizal for news regarding my disruption and instead started trusting God's perfect timing, the letter came. I've been through some downs (letting doubt and fear consume me), but God has drawn me out of them, to know Him all the more a bit better and I'm thankful for that. Besides, I'm also getting paid haha, so it might not be such a bad deal after all. =P
God is faithful, and He'll never let you go no matter however bad the situation seems. We'd all do well to continue learning this and more importantly, knowing and keeping this truth in our hearts.
"You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you."
-Isaiah 26:3 (ESV)
