Give Thanks

Today, I received a letter from Home Office (Immigration Office in UK). They were so efficient, exactly 3 weeks, no more or less.

Suddenly I feel very nervous, don't know why, maybe it has a double meaning for me. Not only able to stay in UK or not but also whether God want me to stay or not.

As I said before, I would use "whether I can get a job in UK" to decide whether I should stay here. But later, God used my father to tell me I need to stay in UK. I am glad that my father supported my plan but to be honest, I am not quite sure with God's decision. So again, due to my insecureness, I prayed to God, if I able to get the visa, I know it's your will to let me stay in UK; if not, please let the home office reject me and I will obey your decision and go back to Malaysia in October.

Ok, back to the letter from Home office today. I took out all the documents (certificate, bank statement, university letter, etc) first. Then, there is a letter from Home office. So, I read it very very slowly, like those who gamble would cover their card to read it bit by bit. Ok, it stated my address and home office address, then thank you for your application. Until I saw the word: I am PLEASED to tell you that we have approved your application and give you leave to remain until 06 July 2012.

Oh, Thanks God from my deepest heart, I really appreciate it. God, thank you for your kindness and grace and I know You know what is good for me. I will keep rely on You as You will be a guide in the future, You are my light in darkness, You are my all in all.

Praise to the Lord and Glory to the King of Kings
