the vision

This is how a vision looks like to me.

Job 14
7. "For there is a hope for a tree,
If it is cut down, that it will sprout again
And that its tender shoots will not cease.

8. Though its root may grow old in the earth,
And its stump may die in the ground,

9. Yet at the scent of water it will bud
And bring forth branches like a plant.

13. Oh, that You would hide me in the grave,
That You would conceal me until Your wrath is past,
That You would appoint me a set of time,
and remember me!

14. If a man dies, shall he lives again?
All the days of my hard service i will wait,
til my change comes.

15. You shall call, and i will answer You;
You shall desire the work of Your hands.

16. For now You number my steps,
But You do not watch over my sins.

17. My transgression is sealed up in a bag,
And You cover my iniquity."

Job 17

9. "Yet the righteous will hold to his way,
And he who has clean hands will be stronger ans stronger.

10. But please come back again, all of you.
Foe i shall find one wise man among you.

12. 'the light is near', they say, in the face of darkness."

Bring me to my senses

Some things in life we cant miss or skip. Like the movie 'Click', it teaches us that skipping a part of life is not a wise thing to do. We have to bear with pain, argument, problems, routines... basically life. If we miss a step, be sure to know that we're gonna miss the lesson as well. Some people think that it will be easier to skip hard work. Less pain. True. But you know what? Hard work benefits you in the long run. I cant remember who i quote this from, "The easy road becomes hard, the hard road becomes easy." Make sense? You do the thinking.

Ive missed many chapters in my life because of my selfishness. Ive missed many opportunities in the renewal of my family, friendships and relationships. I had my 'down hill' time. But ive had it enough. I was waiting for the perfect timing to move on; where i am brave enough to admit my wrong-doings, brave enough to forget my past, brave enough to forgive those people and brave enough to move on. The lesson that i learn from life? Theres no perfect timing. If i have to move on, im gonna have to do it now. or never. Im gonna have to learn the hard way. am i ready? i always have the doubt but now im daring enough to say 'yes'. yes im ready to follow where this life is bringing me. i have my Father. i have nothing to worry about. right? everything is done for me.

I need to learn the hard way. we need to learn the hard way. i once read, "God gives food to the birds, but He doesnt throw it to the nest." agree?

i do.
