Sabbath




Thank God for a day to just rest.

Sometimes i think i do not need it, but its so vital. Wanted to finish organizing my room today, fix in the shelves i just bought this morning, etc but no. Im just way too tired and is so thankful that even God made such a day where we may not do any work and just refresh ourselves.

I so want everything to be fixed up now. But i know that its okay if things take longer, i don't need to get everything done instantly all the time. Realizing how when i set to get something done, i usually will not rest until its completed, but i figured now that if i were to do things for long term purposes, i must make allowance for some things to take a longer process, and its much better if i am consistent than if i do things great and then let it all slide.

Today at church Pastor Matt Fielder was talking on Romans 7:14- 8:25. How even Paul admit to his weaknesses and sin and reminds us that we no longer live under Condemnation. As weak as we are, God's cloak of Righteousness now covers us. He sees us as Holy. We should always rid of every sin that entangles us and continue to Run Strong to the finish line. 

I have this fear that i would second guess my choices. But somehow i feel that it is the direction to take. Perhaps its like how Peter ask Jesus if He could walk on water, and Jesus said Come. And He went, but once he starts to look around, he sinks until He looks back at Jesus. When things get tough and i do not feel in the mood, or when fear comes in or i feel inadequate i want to continue gazing up at my God and drawing my Strength from Him. And to keep pressing on towards the goal.

Yes, yes.. im pretty much rambling about many things in this short post. Its time for a break on this beautiful cloudy Sunday :) Im so glad that i've decided to end the term and move on to a new chapter, even my students are supportive and excited for me ( probably they believe i am much better doing this than being a 'bio' teacher ).Though i feel a little anxious, i know it would be a great little adventure, one where i go through much ups and downs, much of overcoming certain fears, but it would be worth it. God is good and meets the desires of those who are happy in Him.

Have a restful Sabbath yourself :)
