HIS WAYS ARE STRANGE!




I remember, myself giving a sharing on 'The Relevance of Jesus in our lives' to a group of college students long back. Then the Lord me say these sentences."Jesus is the solution to all our problems, But how He solves, will be entirely different in our lives. He is strange and unique in each of our lives".
Recently, once again, Lord made me experience His strange ways in my life.

Days back I had a test paper in class and I performed really bad on that paper. I was damn sure that I will not get the minimum marks.But above all those, my thought was on the reaction of sir, when he gives us the answer sheets.I never wanted myself to be humiliated in front of the class.
So I prayed on my knees, seeking strength to face that difficult situation. Even though I prayed really hard,I took leave on some days,thinking that I may get the answer sheets, those days.
But that paper was never given to us for weeks.
At last that day arrived. The professor entered our class room with the big pile of our corrected answer sheets.
He started distributing the papers, calling each student to the desk, pointing out the mistakes and explaining where to improve and all. (As we are in our final semester, All our teachers want us to score high marks unlike the previous semester results :D )
I was breathless, and was eagerly waiting and getting ready to receive the BEAUTIFUL gift from my professor.
But to my wonder, I was not given the paper till he finished distributing all the papers.
With much reverence I stood up and communicated this good news to him.
He said sorry and said, that he missed my paper while correcting others' and found it just before he came to class that day. He asked me to meet him in the office, so that by then he would correct it and give me the answer sheet.I met him and collected my paper from him that day itself, and I did clear the paper also.He didn't say much but just asked me to do well next time.
That was a real wonder to me.
See, how beautifully the Lord has arranged these sequences to happen in my life!
He is really strange in His ways!
