| Strive to rest. |
I was down the whole of yesterday with fever, and slept the whole day, only getting up occasionally to check my temperature and take a tablet for the fever. I wasn't even hungry but I realised I needed to eat something so I cooked myself some maggi mee and sausage omelette but couldn't finish the mee. The night before I was down with diarrhea, gastric pain, stomach cramps and nausea. Think it was food poisoning. I'll never eat from the Western food stall at White Sands again! > <
Sorry Shu, got to keep cancelling on you. =x
I'm really sick and tired of thinking about that issue. Was it easy for Abraham to make the decision to sacrifice Isaac, trusting that God would do right by him? Was it easy for Rahab to put her life on the line to help the spies? Was it easy for Daniel to walk into the lions' den? The Bible says too little of any conflict they went through in making their decisions. If only I could stand in their shoes for a moment, maybe it would be easier. Obedience confirms my standing in God. Well and true enough. Yet I also know that no matter what I do, He still loves me. His grace is more than enough for everything. But what do I do when I don't know what He wants of me in this? Say the word, Lord. I need to hear from you.
Meanwhile, I'm going to strive to rest in His peace and joy, for that at least, I know, is what He has called me to. The fight for joy. :) |
