yeap.. enjoyed myself this weekend.
spend most of the time just chilling and doing almost nothing. Rested, recuperated, energized and ever ready for a new week ahead.
sermon today was very timely and very informative I must say. Indeed it's difficult to understand the will of God. Why evil happen to good people? Why innocent people have to die? Why this or that happen to us? So many questions but have we ever thought of it this way.... Why are the stars shinning so brightly every night? Why is the sun producing sunlight for the trees and plants? Why is there oxygen in the air for us to breathe? Why is there night for us to sleep and day for us work? hahaha... when you think of it this way, you'll understand that everything happen based on the sovereignty of God and He alone has full control over nature, humanity and time.
Sometimes we think that God is never around us. He never cares. He allows bad things to happen to us and our loved ones. He did not answer our prayer after years of praying. He may not even bother anymore. But then again.... think again. When we sleep at night. What is keeping the roof from falling down on us? What is keeping our heart pumping with oxygen throughout our body even when we sleep? Who is allowing the sun to shine so brightly every morning? Who gave you the ability and wisdom to work to earn a living? We tend to take all the small little things in life for granted and we tend to highlight certain issue to blame God when all He has been doing is to give and to give..... for He cares.. I for one am guilty too. The book of Job clearly shows us that God made everything the way it is and who are we to question what God is to do next or who are we to ask God to do things the way we want Him to?
I really thank God for creating me the way I am. Sometimes too positive but better positive than negative right? Someone asked me this question.. "Are you sure you just broke up with your girlfriend?" Of course I said.. yah.. and his reply was.. "Dont look like it also." hahaha.. don't know whether it's something good. but yeap... of course there's hurt and pain but the joy I receive from God overcomes all hurt and pain. That's the beauty of having Christ in me. God taught me to be positive in life to prepare myself for more challenges ahead. This may just be a small hurdle in life. If I can't overcome this small hurdle, what more the bigger ones? this may just be the peak of an iceberg. Who knows how big the actual iceberg is? hahaha...
anyway, like i've said earlier.. this weekend has been fabulous. There are times where loneliness fills my heart and soul but it's ok. I need to endure pain to grow. Again... knowing that God is control... sure brings comfort.
maybe i'll call it a day.. tho it's still early
maye I'll just walk around and maybe continue reading my book...
hmm.. hahaha so many maybes...
for me to know and for you to find out then...
nitez..
