Words from the Victim
Haha, I sure enjoy the news reports. Sheepie here is doing a good job. Good job, Sheepie! Well, I must say this is really a blessing in disguise. Been working for my mom and feeling sooo tired. Also been wanting to have a break so I could handle some personal problems, but been unable to. Sometimes I feel so caged in, and many times have wondered what in the world am I doing here doing this weird thing. And as much as I've told myself that this is not for me, this is for God, this is for Mom, who's given so much for me, there are still times when I feel resentful that I am "chained to my job" as they say, while my friends (Well, most of them, except those actually working too and those already in N ational S lavery) are having fun outside. After a while of rejecting invitations it gets this way, and really, I don't like my job. But well, nobody ever said the path to heaven is easy.
Anyhow, thank God for the rest! Though it be an itchy one.
"Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails." - Proverbs 19: 21
Amen indeed. I had all these plans to get off-days from Mom after we got back from NZ (Did I tell you? Me and the parents are going off to NZ - no, not the LOTR side - for 8 days from the 21st to the 28th) and all, all these worries and feelings too. And plop! He drops rest into my lap, just when I least expected. I did pray for rest, and this is His answer. Praise the Lord! =) |
