Something in Mind

If you have ever thought of how you spend your life....

Your life can be determined with just a "click" moment. You can never say "Don't worry, it can wait... We still have a long time..." since no one knows how long your "time" is. Once a healthy and cheerful girl, now sleeping still forever with her frowning smile. Many times we, young people, think we can do whatever we want, whenever we feel like doing it, since we have plenty of time. Who would think that young people also need caution? Who would think that a normal young adult, with dreams and mind like any young adults would have, will lose the ability to achieve those hopes in just one "second"?
Does not it feel like life is too short and too fragile? Just as glass, you need to hold your life firmly and carefully. One drop, and your life is shattered.

So how have you spent your life? Meaningfully? Hopelessly?

Think about it.. Really give it a thought...

Contentment

These few days I realize we should express our endless gratitude for everything given for us, instead of complaining and asking for more.
We occasionally wonder and ask "why" and "why". We always want more. We never feel content.
But now let's look back. We have friends who love us, we could breathe and enjoy our days. He provides us with everything that we need. He gives me many talents that I could use to glorify Him and for supporting my brothers and sisters. The fact that He loves me and cares for me should have been enough for me to be content; however, I was foolish to ignore what He provides for me. In the end, my feeling of discontentment dragged me down, left me suffocated. My greed tied me in the darkness.
But God loves me too much; He did not leave me. He forgave me. I've learned my lesson. I realize how ungrateful I was. And every time I remember my foolishness, I feel grateful for I have the greatest Father and Friend of all.

What are you grateful for?

I See the Light

"And at last I see the light
And it's like the fog has lifted
And at last I see the light
And it's like the sky is new
And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once everything looks different
Now that I see you"
(I See the Light - OST Tangled)

Now that I see you...

Rest in the Arms

"When you're broken when you're weak
When you turn the other cheek

When you cannot speak of the bitter sweet,
bitter sweetness
When the floor gives out beneath

and everything that you believe
cannot bring you peace
You're broken inside, broken in pieces

You can..
Rest in the arms of the One who holds you
Rest in the arms of the One who knows you

Rest in the arms of the One who won't let go
"
(Rest in the Arms by Aaron Shust)

Dear my beloved readers,

How long has it been since I last shared with you all?
I have gone through the midst of storms for awhile, but God's guidance has brought me safe along the way... =)

This song really pictures my experiences during those days...
If I look back, without Him, the One who holds me, I would not be able to survive my days.
Since moving to this little town of Bloomington, I really feel challenges have been coming tremendously... And I really struggled, becoming farther from Him. My situation here seemed to force me apart from Him. But God is the Almighty One. He did not let me go, and He won't. He kept me strong, He gave me the power in Him to go through... So that I could rest in His Arms..
