Today rain fell in my city! I really love the nuance it brought afterward, very fresh and enlivening. The sun then appeared in glowing golden rays, permeating the window of the place where I sat. How nice it is!
Praise God, I had a very peaceful day today, yes albeit the assignments which are really demanding time and seriousness. I find that truly, they are something that I am to grateful for, because during the time like this faith and hope are given the opportunity to be exercised and lived. What a very beautiful gift from God, then.
One among other things which come to my mind was, again how great is our faithful God provides the day with whatever necessary for us to live before Him. It is true, especially in my weaknesses and insufficiency. And I think of my dorm-mates, my lecturers and those who are being around me. How many times, I don't have a loving heart toward them. It is easy to be self-preoccupied, defensive, and even uncaring. O, Lord have mercy! Grant me, O Lord your mercy to be ready and peaceful to lay aside my own excessive cares and thoughts and to stand before You in reverence and to encounter others with love, patience and kindness which comes from You, according to Your will.
Having done the Citizenship paper, I'd like to stay at dorm now, take a rest and prepare for Calculus exam tomorrow :D!
My continued prayers for your studies Yudhie.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for again sharing such encouraging and challenging words; my weakness and insufficiency seem particularly strong at the moment, so it was a blessing to read your words here and those of Elder Porphyrios below.
Thank you again and may God bless you in all you do.
I thank God for you, Yudhie my brother, every day. By His grace, we are all of one loving heart. Continue to work as for the Lord in everything. Remember in advance the look in His eyes when He says to you, Well done, good and faithful servant! Enter into the joy of your Lord. Thank you, brother, for your friendship and faithfulness.
