Midweek

Today just seems like a Friday. Why? Because God is gracious and ever so faithful. Blood, sweat and tears were shed for quite some time (okay, maybe not blood but there is definitely sweat because of this heat!) because of school and what my future holds for me. For just one moment that lasted for what seemed like days, I allowed fear to take a hold of me. I was basically telling God, I can do this on my own, it's okay, everything's fine. I've been making unnecessary excuses which led to compromising my actions. The thing is, I knew this was all going on but I couldn't bring myself to just turn away. All of a sudden, doubt and worry started to creep in... I just wanted to give up!

You know what? It's not completely in my power to turn things around. Today, it was all God. There was this unspeakable joy settling in me and I don't know, it came out of nowhere! And you know, whenever events like this happen, it is no accident. When things come out of nowhere like a miraculous sign, you just know God was behind it. As I was walking home from school, God just spoke to my heart saying to worship Him and give Him praise that He so very much deserves... through the good and bad. In all circumstances give thanks! (1 Thessalonians 5:18) And in my flesh, figuratively speaking, I was looking at my problems with a magnifying glass. I noticed every single detail of my problems. But God is so much bigger...

But all throughout, there was only one thing I could do... and that was to cling to Jesus. I had to hold on to His promise. The going gets tough, the tighter I cling to His truth, His word. I cried to Him and He never fails to give me strength.

It is now past 8pm and being that it is Wednesday, a school night, I must sign off and study.

Good day!
