Food for Thoughts

“ Now Jesus was going up to Jerusalem. On the way, he took the Twelve aside and said to them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!”” (Matthew 20: 17-19)  listen to chapter  (Read by Max McLean. Provided by The Listener's Audio Bible.)

Acceptance

Everybody desires acceptance. In seeking to be accepted, we need to accept others as well. Too often, we seek one way,ie being accepted. But often, it works both ways. Acceptance enables us and others to soar on greater heights, and rise up to greater potential.

It's something that I have learnt. It's something I have to relearn again. It's not easy, when we look inwardly...I have to admit. But hey, forget the past, and strain towards the goal that set forth right? A conscious decision...I have to say.

A Crazy Week

Crazy deadlines, too much on the plate, endless phone calls to seek help, endless system problems, endless queries, working round the clock to meet the midnight deadline....It's been a crazy week. I ran like a mad woman. Never in my life felt so so stretched before. Never in my life felt such a burning anger...it's a struggle..between what i believe and the realty.

Lord, is this really what He has installed for me? God, where is You sceptor of favour? Where is the breakthrough that I have been waiting? How long shall I wait? I felt like standing on a sinking sand...grapping hold of anything that comes along the way.

It's so easy to give up. It's never easy to stay afloat and hang in there. Peace and strength are what I desire most. And there's only one place I can draw from. The ONLY place.
