Lord, so many things call for my attention. This, that, everything. The worst thing is that, i know it is undue attention, only that my heart is troubled. Lord, You have been Lord over our lives for so long now, and i know beyond a shadow over doubt that You are faithful in keeping us. So Lord, guard all our hearts Lord, from worrying, from fret. Thank You Jesus, that in this is love, not that i love You, but that You love me!
Today, i had a real blessed day out with heng tin. She is a special girl. I've said that before, and i'll say it again. Really one of those who catch my heart... in just the glory of the Lord shone thru her. And i thank God, that He has brought such people along my path, to bless me. And Lord, i pray that i'd be able to bless her as well. Who am i, but a vessel in Your kingdom? Use me Lord, to Your glory.
Managed to get to AFR on time, in fact early, today. Cuz somehow all the parents came to pick 'eir beloveds pretttyy early. Less money for me, yet more time! Slowly, made my way there. the jam was pretty fun, especially when the gals were 'pit' against the guys. 2 guys, for that matter, vs well, many girls. haha. And then, as for combat, sigh haha i felt that benji didn't do an excellent job teaching cuz i was really lost here and there. Well i shall not repeat the reason o'er and o'er again, but... he is forgiven. ;p
I'm really blessed. Honestly. Despite certain worries and concerns here and there, i'm still very blessed. Blessed with a wonderful family, awesome friends, opportunities to do things i love, etc etc. What more can i ask in this season of my life? The worries, they just come as a scare. Honestly, they're but symptoms. People, when they worry, it's often concerning things yet to come, based on the symptoms they see. Lets take an example. Lets say, someone is very sick. The people involved do not worry that he is very sick. cuz that's already a fact rite, duh. When they worry, they worry of things that entail the sickness. ie the financial drain, the possibility of death etc etc. All those are not yet come. Therefore people worry, for they're afraid of losing things they still possess, and are dear to them. Well i s'pose that's really the time where we oughta be grounded in the Word of God, and believe that all His promises are yes and amen! For His promises say, that be His stripes we are healed, that with long life He shall satisfy us and show us His salvation, that we shall be above only and not beneath, that we shall be prosperous and have good success, that he shall prosper all we put our hands to, that He shall direct our paths, that the plans He has for us are plans to prosper and not to harm us. etc etc etc.
Ok i have no idea how i digressed, but well i guess i needed to hear that as well.
Oh well, at the end of it, i still opt to believe in my eternal God rather than my temporal circumstances. By the grace of God. Amen.
