By End 1972 Our LCE (Lower Certificate of Education) Exam results were out.
Both Mohd Sdolehuddin & I passed with good grades. We were both from San Peng Road Lower Secondary School in Kuala Lumpur, Capital of Malaysia.
And to our glad surprise only 2 of us from our entire Class qualified to go to either the Art or Science Stream.
For Art stream our study will continue in Form Four in Cheras Road School. And for Science Stream we will be in the 4th Form in Cochrane Road School.
As we were then very young and inexperienced we sought God for His will to be done. I took out a coin and prayed to God.
“Dear God,
If you want us to continue our study in Science give us a head as we toss the coin. But if it is your will to study Art Stream then give us a tail.” So up went the coin as it spinned & spinned and then it rested in my palm.
IT’S A HEAD!! SO TO SCIENCE CLASS IN COCHRANE ROAD SCHOOL WE SHALL GO!
Of course on hindsight after more than 46 years now I think this is not the usual way of determining God’s will for our lives.
We should seek God’s will by meditating on His Word & also consult more experienced Pastors or Counselors.
But we were only few months in the faith. And we had great faith and expectation ahead.
In my next post we will share how God led us to win souls among our classmates in Cochrane Road School for Years 1973 & 1974
So Destinies Were Made By The Toss of A Coin.
