God's peace upon me


I overslept this morning.
Normaly, I would have taken a taxi to rush to work,
but as I was pushing myself off the bed and preparing for work,
something in me just prompt me to take the usual route.
I wasn't rushing to get out of the door too,
Not sure why but I didn't think that I need to be in a hurry.

From home to the nearest bustop at my work place is 4 bustops.
Around 20 mins, including the walk to the bustop,
the waiting time for the bus and morning traffic jams around the area.
Also the company is located deep inside the industrial park, very ulu area,
walking in takes another 20-30 mins.

The total time going to work takes around 40-50 mins.

I got out of the house at 7.50AM,
need to reach the company and slide my card before 8.30AM.
40 mins for the trip.
Actually 39 mins to be exact.
If we slide in at 8.30AM, we will be counted as late.
So 8.29AM or before.

I really shouldn't have taken the chance and just take the taxi.
Like normal working adults, being late is bad for records.
And my salary is on the line.

I can't describe how it feels to be so calm when you really shouldn't.
But I can definately say that this peace is not from me.
It is from something within me, from the Holy Spirit, from God.
I'm telling you it must be God.

God is with me from the time He opened my eyes to the alarm clock that didn't go off.
God is with me as I tried to reason why I should be taking the taxi as I walked towards the bustop.
God is smiling upon  me as I decided to keep faith and carry on.
God's peace is with me as he walked beside me on my way to the company.
His grace is upon me, and I truly believed that he had slowed down the time so that I get to work on time.

Did not need to run.
Did not need to jay walk, but wait for the red light to turn green.
I slide my card at 8.28AM.
Just on time, and just like how He had planned.



This is just a small thing in everyday life.
But no matter how small your worry is, and no matter how small what you care about,
God knows it and He understands it.
He cares for what you care.


Have some faith!
And you'll see how amazing God's grace is.

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6, 7 NLT)
