hello everyone (:

i'm back from japan! so sorry i didn't tell you all when exactly i was leaving!
[i think i told gladys though..]
so anyway, while i was there, the most amazing miracle happened.
i think its kind of unbelievable, but just so amazing.
maybe if it happened to someone else, and i was told about this, i would just go "wow" and not feel anything else.
but the fact is that the someone else was me, so it really affected me.

i went climbing this mountain a few days ago - tateyama alphine.
it was filled with snow, and the snow was really thick.
yeah there it was spring, and the snow from winter hadn't melted yet.
so the snow is really hard to walk in, and i kept slipping and falling down.
in short, it wasn't a nice walk.
what made it worse though, was that when we were leaving the mountain, i realised that my handphone was not with me.
it'd probably fallen out of my pocket when i fell or something.

i know by now, if you've read everything, you'll probably guess that somehow i found it.
yes some way or other.
to continue my story, i did find my phone.
but there are several things that make finding my phone even more amazing.

1. My phone is as white as the snow
2. It had no battery [so cannot call]
3. It was on silent mode [so even if there was battery AND reception, nobody will know]

four days after my handphone was lost, i went to make a police report.
the day after that, my handphone was found.
they told me that a tourist found it and it was passed to the police.
its already a miracle that my phone could have been spotted by someone in the snow.
also my phone was still working despite being in the snow for what must have been hours.
another thing is that the tourist was so kind that he/she even reported the phone.
he/she surely must have been God-sent!

and if i'd made the report a day later, i don't think i would have gotten my phone.
because we were travelling all over the place.
nobody would be going back just for my phone!

so i'm really amazed by God's miracles, He's just so wonderful :D

love, nichola
