surrogates + updates

I highlighted my day today by watching surrogates with pete!

After the things that have happened recently leading up from yesterday, i felt i learnt alittle something about God's grace and what it meant to experience that grace today. praise Him.

Taking something away from me for a while to teach me a valuable lesson and then blessing me in double amounts back in return.

Some thoughts that came to me yesterday:

How am I appreciating the things/people around me right now? Do I have to wait till something happens before I show concern? Are we humans built to act only when the need arises? What has happened to our soul?

If everything in life that has happened up till now is a significant process of growth and my process of sanctification, there must a reason why God wired me to be who I am today in my thoughts, feelings, actions and nature. And this is no accident. I'm not lousy in anyway. I can't be who somebody wants me to be. I am myself and God created me, me. Unique and created for his pleasure and plans.

There is only one real place of rest. and that is in God. People can try to understand but God fully understands. My mode of communication with God is special and unique.

Whats the reason why am I finding myself rushing to places, not getting enough rest, possibly neglecting the people around me.

Trials are good because they allow me an opportunity to grow. Surrendering is really admitting that I'm worthless so God can work something out in me.

1 Corinthians 13:13 also spoke to me heaps while i took some time off yesterday...
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

We can have faith in our God, hope that all will go well with our lives, but if we do not love Him, we are nothing.

If we profess we love God and not take actions to love Him. then we really don't know what we're saying in the first place. Loving means spending time. Time doesn't fly at all. We just need to slow it down.

Its kinda messy but thats how I am. Everything out.
