God answers prayers..

It was Saturday, the eve of the 38th Anniversary of CSI Redeemers church, Anna nagar. The RYF team was supposed to sing a special song during the church anniversary service. I was planning to give an introduction for the song. So I prepared one, thanking God for his goodness and mercy through all these years. I also thought I’ll talk about the history of the church, how it was built by my thatha, late Mr. M D Selvaraj, how the Church started with a thatched roof (kudisai aalayam), went on to have an AC sheet roof for many years, and how God has blessed us now with a concrete-roofed Church with a balcony.
I prepared well for the song intro; it was going to be a Tamil medley.
The next day, as is routine, my dad prayed in the morning and he was wondering if anyone would tell about the history of the church, how the church started, how the church had gone through tough times. My dad prayed to God that someone should talk about the Church’s history.
I came home at 8:00 AM after my night shift at work and got ready to go to Church. At church, I informed my RYF members about the introduction I had prepared. They gave me a green signal and asked me to go ahead with the introduction.
Unfortunately, though I prepared well, the output did not come out as expected. But my dad was surprised to hear me talk about the church’s history, the thatched roof, and the details of the yesteryear church, just like he prayed that morning. The song came out well.

Below is the video.


God answers prayers. Ask from your heart and he will fulfill your earnest requests. He answered my dad’s simple wish. He will answer yours too!
