When in doubt - pray, pray, pray


Just before the feast-day of St Ann, there was a pattern observed about the weather that is it rained heavily in the afternoon or sometimes in the morning. One is not able to predict anything concrete about the weather nowadays.

And one parishoner with great confidence mentioned that it will surely rain over the weekend and his bet was 99.9%. Looks like a gloomy statistics especially for an important day for the parishoners of St Ann.

However, I made the decision to pray and ask the Lord for fine weather over the weekend because there was alot of efforts, personal sacrifices, blood sweat and tears put in by the St Ann Feast day committee members and volunteers.

Imagine the surprise, when the dawn broke forth on both days, there was not even a single drop of rain felt. Not a miracle for sure because the Lord truly takes care of his people and their needs in a generous and overflowing manner and wants his people to celebrate.

The important thing is "Do not doubt",

Because the Lord has a wonderful plan for all of us in every particular situation that also include challenging and difficult situations.
