I realised there are many things/events awaiting for me. I was worried that I do not have abilities to accomplish them.
For the past 2days, I didn't sleep well. I've got to work at night and have presentation during the day. Many things are running in my head. Just can't sleep. Supposed to attend evening class now, but have decided to give it a miss.
*no regrets*
becos.....
as i was checking my email, i saw this title
I'll usually detele forwarded emails w/o reading them cos i find it a waste of time. Recently my contact lens & eyes are giving me lots of problem, so i read this mail thinking* did something went wrong about lens that I didn't know.
And this is what the msg is:
Brenda was almost halfway to the top of the tremendous granite cliff. She was standing on a ledge where she was taking a breather during this, her first rock climb. As she rested there, the safety rope snapped against her eye and knocked out her contact lens . 'Great', she thought. 'Here I am on a rock ledge, hundreds of feet from the bottom and hundreds of feet to the top of this cliff, and now my sightis blurry.'She looked and looked, hoping that somehow it had landed on the ledge. But it just wasn't there.She felt the panic rising in her, so she began praying.. She prayedfor calm, and she prayed that she may find her contact lens.When she got to the top, a friend examined her eye and her clothingfor the lens, but it was not to be found. Although she was calm nowthat she was at the top, she was saddened because she could not clearly see across the range of mountains. She thought of the bibleverse 'The eyes of the Lord run to and from throughout the whole earth.'She thought, 'Lord, You can see all these mountains. You know every stone and leaf, and You know exactly where my contact lens is. Please help me.'Later, when they had hiked down the trail to the bottom of the cliff they met another party of climbers just starting up the face of the cliff. One of them shouted out, 'Hey, you guys! Anybody lose a contact lens? 'Well, that would be startling enough, but you know why the climber saw it? An ant was moving slowly across a twig on the face of the rock, carrying it! The story doesn't end there. Brenda's father is a cartoonist. Whenshe told him the incredible story of the ant, the prayer, and the contact lens, he drew a cartoon of an ant lugging that contact lens with the caption, 'Lord, I don't know why You want me to carry this thing. I can't eat it, and it's awfully heavy. But if this is what You want me to do, I'll carry it for You.'
I think it would do all of us some good to say, 'God, I don't know why You want me to carry this load. I can see no good in it and it'sawfully heavy. But, if You want me to carry it, I will.'
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called. Yes, I do love GOD. He is my source of existence and my Savior. He keeps me functioning each and every day. Without Him, I am nothing,but with Him....
I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. (Phil. 4:13)
Way to go, my friends!
