He is the answer to the question, the cure to the infection.
You give and take away, blessed be Your Name.
it's times like these i just wished You were physically present that i could hug you and take comfort in Your presence.
not that it's impossible, but if only.
i shall take comfort in Your word that all who are weary can seek rest under Your wings.
Teach me Lord daily that i am work-in-progress, and that i should not quit in this pursuit of goodness.
*hugs*
this week, i need to make some decisions, and i intend to make them soon.

something interesting i read
ever saw the parallel between a GPS unit and God's grace?
imagine this scenario:
you're driving with your GPS (although not really applicable in Singapore) and the GPS unit tells you to take a left.
you being the all-so-smart driver, feels that you should be taking the right, and therefore you proceed to do so.
the GPS unit then beeps out "recalculating - when safe to, execute a U-Turn"
you get irritated with the GPS unit, you decide to unplug it.
15mins later when you're as lost as a chicken running around without its head, you decide to plug the GPS unit back in.
you expect the voice to go "see what an idiot you've been? you should have listened to me from the start..."
but no, it goes "recalculating, when safe, execute a U-Turn"
that's my point. God allows U-Turns, and when you're ready to be obedient, He doesn't lash out at you with vehemence or sarcasm, but instead with loving tenderness, He continues to guide you on the way home.
are you ready to make that U-Turn?
cheers
