Recently has been bombarded with a lot of bad, sad, unfair, sudden, difficult situation etc kind of news. From the media to even people I know of, down to my loved ones, it's been flooding our mind and heart and thoughts. But somehow, beyond all human efforts, solely based on God's promises, we can still find peace and joy in the midst of all these. Indeed the JOY of the Lord IS our strength. For those who are going through a rough patch, cling on!
1. Been missing a dear friend recently, and also just learned of another church brother's sudden demise, I do feel saddened. But all glory to God, I know He is enjoying their company up in heaven :)
2. Also been counselling friends who are going through difficult times, esp in their marriages. It's emotionally very draining, zapping all my emotional, mental n physical energy. But all glory to God, He has been giving me wisdom as to how to help them along.
3. Feeling a little uncertain about what our future holds, esp since I am not working full time anymore, but doing the things that I love to do, I'm still fearful about sudden 'rainy' days, should there be any. But all glory to God, His peace and His presence has always surrounds me everytime I turn to Him.
Last but not least, I'm thankful that whenever I need Him, even if I was just looking for His love, His peace, His joy, His Word of encouragement, His hand of comfort, HE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME!!!!
I love Him! Very much!!
