Stay still

I remember a few weeks ago, the Holy Spirit impressed in my heart about staying still. I can't exactly recall what I was doing during then, but the Lord said, "do you find any similiarities between a human life and a hamster life?" Eh.. duh.. well.. both begin with "H".. :P juz being a little crappy.. indeed, most of us - not all of us - have 1 similiarity with the hamster.

That is, we cannot sit still.. :P Well, I'm the kind of person who sometimes really cannot sit still unless I'm really buzzed out or whatsoever. Many times, when I was cuddling my hamsters, I just find that they are simply running, climbing all over you. They never seem to sit still at least for a minute or so (except when they are sleeping..). I want to love them, stroke them, massage them but they seemed to be too active and they end up running away from my hands. They are not familiar with me and some of them tend to nibble on your fingers to "pre-warn" you that "I'm going to bite if you continue"..

Likewise, many times, Daddy God wants to cuddle us, massage us, keep us in His Hands to keep us warm, secure and protected. But there are times when we tend to be a little fidgety - never seemed to keep still. Until we got hit by something or disappointed, we sat still. However, praise be to Jesus that He never stop loving us. In fact, He picked us up to cuddle us, to keep us in His Hands to keep us warm, secure and protected and telling us that it's alright. Everything is fine. All is well. Interestingly enough, I had it that way some times.

Well, it all differs in everyone. Some had it this way, some didn't. Daddy God knows how to handle everyone of us coz we are all different from each other and He knows what we love most. He would always do something and even surprises us with sweet gifts/blessings.

This time, a moment of thanksgiving to Lord Jesus coz yesterday, I had to go to my customer's site where I had to handle some of their "outdated" processes. oh man.. Prior reaching the customer's place, I was telling Jesus that He'll be in control of all things and let His Name be exalted and glorified. My direct supervisor who was in Malaysia office gave me some encouragement and he prayed for me. Cool!! That was the first time that a boss would pray for me leh!! Praise Jesus!!

Praise be to Jesus, all things went well at the customer's site despite some minor hiccups along the way. I knew that Lord Jesus was there to grant me the peace and I was literally sitting still in my heart. I prayed to the Lord that if anything goes wrong, it'll be Your Name that will be brought down and I didn't want that coz I know He can do all things. His grace is indeed sufficient for me in every areas. Without Jesus in my life, things would have gone wrong all the time. Praise be to Jesus that He is with me at all times, even this time while I'm writing this.

I was also counting my blessings last night that I told the Lord that I wanted a seat in the auditorium, best place in any seat at sections 1 -3. I reached the church at 7.10pm and waited at the queue. @ 7.30pm - Praise and worship started and those at the queue (including myself) were still outside. In my heart I was saying, ok.. doesn't matter.. I've already praise and worship on my serving nite (but deep down I still wanted to worship some more..). A few minutes later, Deacon Matt was telling the ushers to let us in saying that we'll either be standing or sitting on the floor. Well, I don't mind anywhere in the auditorium and I still trust the Lord to give me a good seat in the auditorium. I was visualising myself like a kid "jumping up and down", telling Lord Jesus that I want a good seat.. it was like "I dun care, I dun care. I want, I want.."

So, I made my way, strolling in while the others brushed past me with quick paces. I was enjoying my slow walk or rather I was actually very tired after having to carry my laptop on my back for almost the entire afternoon.. Phew.. Anyway, I just stroll in and was at the back of the audi. Lo and behold, an usher was asking me if I'm alone and yes, I was. He later ushered me to a seat and I was happy and much more happier even when he led me even further to the front.. WAH!!! I was elated when I can get to sit at the 2nd section which was pretty near to the pulpit.

After settling myself, I thanked the Lord!! It was so cool that I had another blessing for the day!! kekeke.. At the end of the service, I was even more elated coz Jesus had shown me the principles of meals which I've always wanted to know coz I want to lose weight.. and most of all.. I can eat eggs with more ease!!! YIIPPIEE!!!! :D

Thank you Lord!! Thank you Jesus!! I love you.. :D
