It's funny to realize at times that the distractions seem more stand out than the main task, even sounds more interesting and pleasant. As for me now a college student, to continue my final paper get me to think hard. To stay focus and do what I really need to do can become a challenging thing really. Yet, in the other side of this coin, I can see a good opportunity to really put the understanding into practice, especially in the matter of self-control. Surely I cannot deal with it totally with my own will. It's all only possible with His blessing to act. I sure need to practice to be faithful in the little things and keeps my mind simple so that the worries wouldn't creep in and be discouraged.
It's really tempting to choose the easy and short way and to get gratifications right away. But I really want to focus on the things that is being trusted to me in the moment. I really pray at least I am granted the patience and strength to faithfully do my task before anything else. How rewarding it is if at least I can do a line or two to add to my final paper today!
As today is so bright and sunny in contrast with the wet days last months and this month occasionally. I think it would be good for me to take a walk for awhile, meeting with some friends and talk to them for a while before continuing working with computer. Lord, bless!

Yes, Son, do your best always with what He has placed before you, knowing that He gives you both the task and the strength and will to act manfully, to do your best. It is the best offering we can make to our good and loving Lord.
ReplyDeleteHe is truly a Father easy to please, but hard to satisfy. He can't get enough of us, just as we can't get enough of Him. Love is an inexhaustible treasure. Spend it generously, and buy what does not tarnish and what thieves cannot break in and steal — life eternal.
Ameyn! Thanks, Dad!
