As i reflected on this year during this season of Christmas...there's indeed alot going on this year, lots of ups and downs...the worst side of health breakdown vs. the step i see nearer in God's calling...but through it all, God is faithful.
Today, Pastor Ed shared from Psalm 46 "Be still( meaning cease striving) and know that I am God". Indeed it was a verse that spoke to me...to cease the fears, anxiety, strivings, be it hidden or known, within me...to let go and let God, and know that He is in control, even if things seems to go topsy-turvy.
"Have a more humble posture in life, have a higher purpose for life" - what Pastor Ed wants to put through to us in a 2-liner statement. Be faithful to God's calling.
I somehow knew it was this area that God wants to address...i know i have not been able to let go...though i know it's hardly right...and i raised my hands this day to surrender to Him again. If God would let it happen, it will happen...and today's incident proved so true. I can try so hard to look out all this while and not see a single trace, but if God wants, He can place dhim waving just right in front of me (from the most unexpected place-a car!), just as He did today. I tell myself how ironical...but at the same time, He proved to me that God can if He willed.
I don't know how God has willed for me in this and I want to continue to walk in His perfect will...and be faithful to His calling...what this coming year 2010 may hold, i don't know...but like what Fiona says, "Alot can happen in a year..." Indeed, it does. 2009 has proved it right. I'd never know what God has in plan for next year. But i will learn to have a more humbler posture in life and press on in a higher purpose for life. And to cease striving, because my God is alive, and He is God. And i can trust Him for that. :)
