school semester has been tough... didn't really have time to take a break and that explains the lack of posts... Getting started on doing more things and definitely not adapting to them all yet =( but still have to just try and try.. one of my dad's fish just died T.T dunno izzit cos we never take care properly...
Anyway want to share about my excitement in this (still considered new) year, with the embarkment of ID2010 meaning 2010 being a year of intentional discipleship. Amazed that God is detailed to give us a direction to follow =) and it really gives me a whole lot of assurance that God will do something, He will do something and He will do something! And this is really something i really need in my own season of life. God just revealed to me more and more about my insecurity and lack of faith in Him and even distrust in Him. It was a painful time discovering but i guess without these pain, there won't be this drive to overcome! Emotions really adds the 'push' for us to do something. I truly believe that in this case God made used of my emotions to show me this and that just goes back to show what a meticulous God He is!!
Even though it says in Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?", after all, God is the one who created us with emotions and allow us to feel certain things. The dictionary definition of deceitful is illusory and fallacious, this means the heart is misleading, but it is not wrong. It is not wrong to have emotions, just that they can mislead you. So the point is not to force yourself to be emotion-less, but to honour God despite your emotions. Like what i did, it was painful but i chose to face it with God and not run away from it or to cover it up, and i'd say it led to something good, cos i know what's the direction for me to grow in =)
Your emotions reflect your one true passion only. True? If not, what else? Why?
A question that i pondered. I have no idea yet, feel free to contribute haha =D
