I really need to learn more and more to endure and be patient. Thank the Lord for the opportunity to see my own failures and mistakes to learn. Deep in my heart I ask the Lord to grant me peace and patience to endure all things which He allows to happen. But practically, I am still learning very poorly. Lord, have mercy!
In life, the circumstances may change and at times it changes very rapidly. The clouds and the stars appear and disappear from our sight. I really pray to God to grant me patience and humility to face everyday and may His name be glorified forever! I want to sing His praises and be with Him both in the brightest morning when the birds chant and in the darkest stormy night when the thunders hitting the trees.
Lord, let it be.... For You yourself had endured so many things and suffered for us in Love. Grant me also O Lord to leave my comfort and childish likes and dislikes, to be moderate in walking in this dessert, to look and greet all those whom You sent in peace! Your mercy and faithfulness, your staff and rod, they comforted me!
Yahweh is my shepherd.
I lack nothing.
In meadows of green grass he lets me lie.
To the waters of repose he leads me;
there he revives my soul.
He guides me by paths of virtue
for the sake of his name.
Though I pass through a gloomy valley,
I fear no harm;
beside me your rod and your staff
are there, to hearten me.
You prepare a table before me
under the eyes of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil,
my cup brims over.
Ah, how goodness and kindness pursue me,
every day of my life;
my home, the house of Yahweh,
as long as I live!
Psalm 23 -Jerusalem Bible
