Coffeshop tunes

I enjoy spending time alone. Using this time to catch up on my sleep, dramas, blogging proper and clearing up my miscellaneous errands. I've been feeling under the weather lately due to the flu bag I caught and now my right ear's blocked. It has been causing a certain amount of discomfort and if the problem persists, I'll prolly seek medical help. Still praying for supernatural recovery from Jesus! 

So much things had happened the past few weeks. It is incredibly amazing how the Lord has protected and blessed me. A shout out to my beloved Jesus for being so faithful in my life. Despite my failing, Lord you still choose to provide for me. Thank you Lord for placing each people in my life and allowing me to realize things that I have overlooked sometimes. 

Teach me Lord to constantly look to You and not get through all these by my own effort. I tend to look at self without realizing it and this is clearly not what my heart's desire. Relish me in Your truth and wisdom as I enter each day of my life. "The people around me can fail, but Lord You'll never fail." To establish this knowing really keeps me sane as the weeks get busier. Knowing that I can fall back to the Creator of all things makes my life feel better. 

One thing I have learned from the past few weeks would be
1. Reading the word daily
2. Placing yourself within Godly counsels

Let's me just elaborate my points and give a clearer picture of what I meant. 

1. Reading the word daily
In this time and age where we are constantly plagued with happening of the world. We get easily distracted and deviate our attention away from Jesus. We tend to fret over trivial matters and worry all day long. My life is a far from rainbows and butterflies. I start every morning with a prayer to commit my day into Jesus's hand. Again, I begin my day with Jesus and establish the knowing that Jesus is with me and His abundance of wisdom, shalom and grace will manifest in my life. But as the day passes, I start to feel the flesh kicking in and my wandering eyes look at the worldly circumstances. That is where the devil will take advantage of the situation and plant ideals in my head. Therefore, we should always end the day looking to Jesus. Be it the bible or religious book, spending time with the Lord, this helps to build up your strength in the Lord. 

I am still trying my best to make the Word my priority before I sleep. 

2. Placing yourself within Godly counsels
As all Christians are taught in church is that "be in this world, but not of the world". Let's face it - it's tough. Unless you are working full time in the ministry? I personally got to meet my church friends during the weekends for church meeting (excluding my Sunday) for two consecutive week. Every time we meet, it has been certainly the best weekday that I had face. Once again, it reiterates the point of building up your strength in the Lord but this time it is through your friends. I am so blessed with such conscientious and caring leaders in my life. They are such armour bearers for Jesus and surely, I know the fruits that they reap in life will be sweet and glorious. 

Thank you leaders and kingdom friends who constantly guide me in life.
