Truth #18...

Still feeling the way I do from the time of my previous posts early this morning, this is like an answer from the Lord. Or rather like a nudge/slap, hehe. How much more real can it get that as I was chatting & sharing with Alvin about bits and pieces of how I felt at that very moment (oh, he reminds me so much of a good friend none other than Wei Sern. Always there to lend me their ears. Sincere and always willing and ready to help when the need arises). Alvin fowarded this mail to me. He said he received it very shortly after I told him the situation. It has to be God.

He specifically wanted to point Number 18 out to me. But he didn’t want to waste time and go through all the hassle of copy & paste, I guess. So I got the benefit of it, haha. Thanx, dear!!

TWENTY TRUTHS TO REMEMBER:

1. Faith is the ability to not panic.

2. If you worry, you didn't pray. If you pray, don't worry.

3. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.

4. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

5. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.

6. Do the math. Count your blessings.

7. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.

8. Dear God: I have a problem. It's me.

9. Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.

10. Laugh every day, it's like inner jogging.

11. The most important things in your home are the people.

12. Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.

13. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.

14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.

15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead.

16. We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves too fast, so enjoy your precious moments.

17. Nothing is real to you until you experience it, otherwise it's just hearsay.

18. It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.

19. Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage. The goals and dreams you're seeking require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle --it only makes progress when it sticks out its neck.

20. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

PRAYER:

“Lord, in your victory over sin and death on the cross and in your resurrection you give us the assurance of sharing in the eternal rest of heaven. Transform my heart with your love that I may freely serve my neighbor for his good and find joy and refreshment in the celebration of Sunday as the Lord's Day.”

[Shina dear, someone has blessed me with this. I shall pass this on to you *winkz* just felt led to do so, kekeke]
