The Lord provides

Genesis 22:14
So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”
The JLTA has ended and as the joy simmers on with the campers and commanders alike, I'm grateful for how God's hand of grace is extended throughout the JTT camp I was in-charge of.

It's truly a miracle to behold as God opened the door for us to use the toilets of the NPCC campsite. In addition, for him to provide each of us with a 1.5L bottle of mineral water. I really cannot imagine being stuck in the campsite with no water to shower and to wash our cooking equipment.

Everynight, we had cooling sea breeze as we stood by the beach in worship and services. As we hiked, there was clouds to shade us from the scorching sun that I experienced in the last JTT.

Not that God provided everything to the point of perfection, that will happen someday in Heaven. but when you view the entire trail with simple eyes, just as how we should with our life's journey, it's really amazing how God always provides more than enough comfort to ease us through the uncomfortable moments. He does not need to go that extra mile, but we're blessed that He shows his love by doing small acts that matters significantly.
