Pray Hard

Posted by Ling on October 23, 2007

I was about 9 years old.  My Auntie W came to visit us.  I used to look at her and think, wow, she’s so pretty!!!  And on that particular visit, she came with her boyfriend (now hubby) and she wore these amazing black leather boots with red lining.

They were captivating.  I tried them on and was instantly, 5 inches taller but I couldn’t walk in them because obviously, my tiny feet didn’t fit these boots…European size 36…

And I remember, I prayed really really hard that night…I prayed that my tiny feet would hurry and grow and grow so that I, too, could wear gorgeous boots like my Auntie W.

Well, my feet indeed grew – to a European size 40!!  Totally out of proportion to my height 5″1…!!!

Boots don’t look that good with my big feet and small everything else.  I look like a waddling duck!!  Haha!

In conclusion : God answered my prayers in a HUGE way!
