ONLY HE CAN SATISFY
The past few weeks has been dramatic, exhausting, simply a mad rollercoaster. Overloaded schedules, crazy emotional mood swings and stupid mistakes and misunderstanding but through all this, I have came to learn a really important lesson. No matter how much of project we take on, no matter how many stupid things that we do, God is always there and he alone can satisfy us. No one else but him.
A day ago, while I was reading the daily meditations of the word among us, I began reflecting on all the events that took place since the beginning of 2006. Happy moments. Sour moments. Good and bad times. Then, as I read the meditation which began with " Whenever you face trails of any kind, consider it nothing but joy." (james 1:2)Then I began thinking, joy? Why joy? After all the nonsense that I've been through. And then I began to think hard, why joy?
And today, I finally understood the meaning. Through these trails and test, though they may hurt sometimes, but the end result of it is definitly good.
A close friend once told me that every test and every trail that we face, its a test to make us and to shape us into a better person.
So those of you out there, feeling exhausted, burnt out, i urge you to just perserve, because everything happens for a reason, and these may come as bad to us but later on in the years as we reflect back, we'll be able to see the goodness in it. HANG IN THERE! (:for the Lord says that he will never abandon us.
" We gives thanks. We give praise. For we know that all things work together for our good."

Dear Ju and Kelly.
As i read your daily reflections and thoughts that are so obviously led by the Holy Spirit and reflect a deep yearning for God, i am truly inspired.
Keep working at the blog. The layout, your content, the colours, and the God factor behind it.
Blogging is such a powerful and relevant way to share Christ with other believers and non-believers who may be interested in knowing why you lead the life that you lead.
Keep up the great work! Keep inspiring one another and share with the world, the wonders of Jesus in your lives!
In Him we can do all things for Him.
God bless,
