Hey all. Had to give church a miss last week for regatta. Weather was divine and if only i could take a pic out at sea to share the view. With the clouds, trees and the sea..absolutely heavenly. I felt so at peace and calm and amazed at God's creation.
Okay so my post have been long overdue.....I'm sure everyone is waiting breathlessly in anticipation haha but sadly since cny feels as if centuries ago, I'll share about others.
The 40day fast, do without a meal a day, I thought "easy" I could do that. Skip for lunch then have dinner.....no mean feat, plus I could use a diet. But how wrong was I, never knew how hard it was to fast and how much snacks in between meals I take. I felt tempted many times by my friends and the glorious wanton mee near school but I couldn't and I have a reason why.
Personally, I feel that fasting, is God's way of strengthening our mind and spirit. You see in life, you would meet lots of obstacles and failures, and temptations come to flirt with our mind and the only way to fight it is to be strong. Just think, if wanton mee could get to you....imagine how hard it would be to counter other temptations and distractions. So to me fasting is like a simple training, something small to start off with to build our resilience and trust in the Lord.
Yezzzz, about the No Tv rule. I know it's even harder, more so when its the award season and new drama serials..but as i said it's to build us up for smth even bigger next time. Its all in the mind....hahaha
Oh yes, I remember I had a tough time skipping lunch during regatta since I was scared I wouldn't have enough energy if I didn't eat but God is great and I did quite well. "No pain No gain" I suppose.
Yeah that's basically it.. Gd night and here's a song. I think it's a christian song..
