Good morning all readers. I didnt blog for a long long time. Sorry for that. Many things happened for the past few months, good and bad.... However there are many things that I cannot share because I'm a national servicemen. Things are getting better nowadays compare to the past few weeks of high tension and stress. Thank God for all the good things that brighten my days and the bad things that allow me to see how far away I am from being Christ-like.
Last night my sister was sick because she was overly stressed and went to the hospital. Thank God that her organs and everything is good and healthy. Stress is something that most singaporean will face and it had not cause only damage to oneself but to people around too. When one is stressed, they tend to only care about what they are doing and don't wish to be disturb.
Father Tom : "Go away, I'm very stress with my work! Go play with the toilet seat!"
Son Jerry : ( was excited but now depressed ) "Okay father......."
( son Jerry then walked to the toilet with a pair of heavy feet. Sitting down beside the toilet bowl, son Jerry cried as he play the toilet seat. )
Son Jerry: "I just want him to smile at me..." sob sob sob
Stress happens. I need more time to do my work! If i don't do this I will fail! Tomorrow how?!?! how!?! I have work to take care, I have my family take care, I got so many!!! SO HEAVY!
O Lord, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in time of distress. (Jeremiah 16:19)
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. (Matthew 11: 28-31)
Can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life? If then you are not able to do so small a thing as that, why do you worry about the rest. (Luke 12:25-26)
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)
My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest. (Exodus 33:14)
When I called, you answered me; you made me bold and stouthearted. (Psalm 138:3)
