This is the last thing i will do today.Sorry to all the prac pples! Overslept coz of fever.
Sometimes Man walks on a road of comfort, seeming blanketed with a red carpet, at that time, he needs nothing else, he sees nothing else. Because he chooses what he sees. Suddenly, it comes to an abrupt end and pebbles, obstacles and walls stand in his way, and he stumbles along. As the mountains and obstacles get higher and higher, despair sets in and he suddenly finds himself tired. Tired of trying, tired of fighting, after all what's the point, i don't see the end in sight. You ask why, why is this happen, where is my hope?
At that time, you hear a voice calling your name. You wonder who it is, you can't see in the darkness of the tunnel. You hear something striking the stone above as a tiny hole appears and light streams in. You see a man before you, scarred by thorns and sharp shards of rock. He gives you a smile, as he trudges on clearing away the things that might hurt you even more. You realise that what you've been going through, is barely the minimum. He has reached out with his bare hands and removed all the thorns from every wall you face, removed every rock shard from every mountain you climb. When you can't see, he creates the light for you. When you are walking on that red carpet, he is the one who lays it for you.
That is what Jesus is to me.
I'm sorry to have been complacent at times. I'm sorry to have been contented in my comfort and when i chose not to see the things that you have done. I am perfectly imperfect, jsut the way you made me, but despite that, you didn't hate me or throw me away, but you protected me, the doll which was crudely made of clay, not very beautiful in any way, but you loved me the same.
Thank you for standing by me through this afternoon's illness. Listening to me every cry, my every song, my every plea. Thank you for bearing it for me and with me, thank you for letting me feel better. Thank you for just being there for me, even when my appreciation was not there. Thank you for ALWAYS being there. If there's anyone i can lean on for sure, its You.
Haha, today let me see something very real and this is why i dedicate this post to my Father up there. The pain that i went through today, couldn't have been overcome without Him.
These hands.
