Non-inspiring post

Today is just one of those I-don't-have-the-mood-to-blog days. So hopefully, I don't sound like I'm taking minutes.

Haha, anyway I'd still blog, since I am going away to Bali tomorrow afternoon.

Well, I am sick. And it really doesn't feel good. Was quite sick on Tuesday afternoon; wanted to go see a doctor, but I was ambivalent. Finally, I decided to put my faith to the test.

You see, last week, and two weeks back, I told god, nonchalantly, that I needed something to test my faith. So you see, God honours your word. Casual conversations with God do lead to serious consequences.

Anyway, I fell sick. So it was a good time of trusting God to heal me. No fever since yesterday! Praise God! Still feel a little sick, but nonetheless, so so much better! Yup, thank God really.

Being physically weak has showed me how weak I can be. My old self re-surfaces, old habits resurrect. Hah. How weak and feeble my mind and will can be.

As I go Bali, I want to try to be at my best for God. But, whatever lah, God uses our weakness to perfect His power.

I think the lesson for me this week and the weeks to come is obedience.

Daryl and I were talking about pride, we were wondering how to stop the pride-thing from surfacing in our lives.

For me, it's loving God, hearing His voice and obeying Him.

It's so easy, yet I struggle so much at times.

Lord, it was never needed, yet you chose to give Your life for me. How can I stand here and not be moved by You?

God's account of merit was never about how many ministries, how many worship duties, how many people you shepherd or how many prophescies you given, it's only currency is OBEDIENCE.
