He sounds so like me

It's been hard to pick up blogging again. I wanted to back track and record my 15-day journey and what transpried since... sigh... too much to do.

The Lord blessed me in every aspect of my trip, especially ministry wise. But let me cut through all that and share the most important highlight.

I had five glorious days away from computers, phones etc. Lot of time to sleep, enjoy good food, read, reflect. I said to myself, "Princess, if you don't sort out your walk with the Lord here, it is NEVER going to happen. You are going to go home and you are just going to bury yourself in work again."

Psalm 13 ministered to me especially. King David wrote...

1 How long, O LORD ? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and every day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?
3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;
4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him,"
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

He sounds so JUST LIKE ME!

Then verses 5-6, David said...

5 But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing to the LORD,
for he has been good to me.

At some point, David made a decision to trust, rejoice, sing and remember God's goodness.

I rededicated myself to the Lord during my extended time with Him that I would trust, rejoice, sing and remember His goodness... even if some prayers are not yet answered (and maybe never????)

My walk with the Lord has been much better these days. Certainly, I sleep better.

A new start

This is me finally checking in again. So much has happened since my last posting three weeks ago. So much excitement. So many thoughts, so much to write about.

But it's 11.40 pm. Just back from BS, the tail end of a long day.

Perhaps just one highlight to mention. That I had hoped that I would meet God again during my trip. He surprised me in so many ways. I think my walk with Him has been restored or is being restored. I'm ready to move on.

I hope to write more in the coming days. Work has piled up in my absence. Not to mention new projects I've been creating for myself...

Later...

God is very kind to me

I don't know what it is with me. A couple of days ago, I lost my two-day-old glasses.

Yesterday, I overslept in the train and had to take a slightly longer time to get to my stop... sigh, only to realise that this time, I got off one stop earlier. So then I had to get back into the station again -- sigh... had to pay an extra fare :-((

This evening, I collected my mail from my box -- and left my keys hanging on the mailbox. I realised it just when the elevator reached my floor. I went down and found it still hanging that. God is very kind to me to spare me the hassle of having to make new sets of keys.

My mum used to say if my head were not attached to my body, I might leave it behind somewhere. Hmmm... there may be some truth to that. LOL.
