Changed

Up Up Up…. Down Down Down…….

It’s amazing how things in my life can go high up one moment and the next hitting bottom ground. It’s like a metaphor it goes on and on. Well I was burn out last week, but this week by the grace of God I’m able to fall back into His loving arms… WOOHOO… I did it again….
Burn?? I’m no longer that burn out anymore. Still busy…total madness… But I’m learning… Actually in this period of burn out season, I’m reminded once again about prayer. Business with our life can sometimes remove God from the picture of our life.
With the amount of workload placed on me, assignments, commitment… to me it really seem impossible to manage everything all at once. In times of desperation, I remembered what a good friend of mine once told me. Often time people forget to do the SIMPLEST thing of all, that is to PRAY…. Most of us know that prayer is powerful, prayer can do wonders, we KNOW…. But how many people actually remember to do it? How many people actually BELIEVE that God works through prayers?

I worried, I stressed, I cried, I sort of gave up…. Yet talking to God about it wasn’t what I choose to do. I was too busy worrying, too busy stressing, too busy completing my work, too busy serving Him with my own strength. I didn’t trust fully that God would take care of me, I forgot that God is BIGGER than my problems. Then, after being reminded of doing the simplest thing of all which is to pray, I came to a point where I just took time off and poured out whatever I was feeling in my heart to Him. I laid my burdens down at His feet, there and then. I find myself surrendering the problem into His care and not taking it into my own hands anymore.

From then on.....amount of workload remains, amount of commitment remains, the only thing that changed is me. After surrendering it to Papa dearest, I began to trust God to pull me through. And amazingly, things are working out so much better than what I’ve expected it to be. I’m sure that God’s Hands was and still is in it all the way.

God wants us to include Him in our life, whether in good times or bad times. And when you actually allow Him to be the center of your situation, He will do wonders. And so I am here today, REVIVE once again. Saved by His loving grace… :)
