The aches

It just suddenly crossed my mind that we are all aching in one way or another. All of us are struggling to mend that heartache..that headache..that backache..that ache that doesn’t seem to go away. Funny how we are all trying so hard to to keep ourselves busy and occupied because we want to run away from what we know we are not able to face/fix. Question is, how far can we run? or, how long can we run? Does the ache go away after that? 10 km? 1000 miles? Probably not in a million years. Yes, not in a million years.

 

I’m sure we have come a long way healing from one heartache to another, learning to forgive one betrayal to another, accepting the disappointment and just wanting to believe there is light at the end of the tunnel. But there’s one thing that has never failed us so far… the sun continues to rise the next day. So…why stay in the dark gloomy weather so long? Perhaps a little sun could help us take some baby steps and eventually..getting there?

 

I’m learning to release and leave it to the hands of the one who has the ability to do something. Cos whatever that I’m capable of..is just not going to make any difference. It’s just this much that I can do. I dunno about you..but I find leaving my burdens to God definitely relieve my shoulders much more and allow me to take bigger steps out of the rut. No doubt everything seemed bleak and nothing is certain. I’m in doubt cos I’m hurt. I don’t know how to trust and who to trust. But when I think of it…has God forsaken me? Has He ever disappointed me? Never….so, why doubt Him just because you are disappointed with someone/something else?

 

I don’t want to hold on to this baggage and expect myself to climb up steps. I hope you’ll learn to let it go than to struggle each step with your baggage. Drop it. Along the way, you might just find something more worthy of your strength. Perhaps this is sounding a bit too hopeful for you…but really…I have decided to move on and as difficult as it is, I’m not going to force myself to forget or to heal completely. I’m just gonna let go of this burden..and start to take my baby steps. As my stamina catches up..I’m sure I’ll be ready to run. And when He thinks I’m ready..I know I’ll be ready to flap my wings and soar….

 

So…you joining me?

Swine Flu or Mexican Flu

This outbreak started again in Mexico, killing more than 100 people up today. For those who have lost their love ones, my condolence with you and your family. May they rest in peace.  According to the news all over internet, it has been spreading to New Zealand (Jup I am glad you came back in time before this flu started) and also South Korea. So far, Praise God there is no dead count for these two countries. In another report, it also mentions that a Scottish couple who return from Mexico for their honeymoon is the first Britian’s case of swine flu. Their family members are also receiving antiviral treatment as a precaution.

So my friends, if you are travelling a lot, please check out with the nearest clinic around you whether you can get antiviral treatment for precaution. Well, there is a saying from the old people; ” Precaution is better than cure”. Be careful each and everyone of you out there!

Oh Lord, please protect each and everyone of us from this swine flu. Keep us healthy and strong. Hope that the swine flu is under control and each country’s health minister is looking into this matter seriously and precaution actions are taken. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.
