The creeper

Had quite a bad day yesterday...
Woke up feeling in need of sleep...
Had a growing headache...
Really moody on the whole =P
Felt bad being moody.
Think i did badly for my 2 papers.

Really down...
and shouldn't be posting any blogs right now...
But then, thought i'll just share a quick one on what happened at the end of the day...

Felt better after pouring my self-centered woes to God haha terrible.
But what really struck me and quietened me was what i read in my fav book.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus...whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things...
Indeed, my heart and mind have been guarded from many a frail thought.
Despair.
Self-pity.
And much more.

I have been strengthened. comforted. lifted from the depths. Today, i remembered my life. Today, i am thankful. Thankful for seeing me through all my life, through good and bad times. He has been holding my hands and not let them go... even when i wasn't aware of it!

At the end of my life, i wanna say that i have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

I am like the creeper which i saw the other day, clinging on to my life support from whom i can climb to see the light.

Be comforted.

a ray of light? Posted by Hello

Where's the line?

The light bulb in my room is getting dimmer...
I know it's gonna blow sooner or later!!!

Hmm light...
doesn't seem to be very enduring does it?
Even the sun whom we've all known for AGES seem to be dying or so they say.

Light... and darkness...
It's always either or...
Or is it?
Then what's the meaning of my room light getting dimmer...? (my vision getting worse in any case)
Doesn't that mean there is a variation of light and darkness?
Like a light-o-stat or whatever they call it =P

Which brings me to the question of the day...
Where, oh where, is the line between light and darkness?
I never could tell...
Until it is pitch black or amazingly bright!

So I conclude.
There is no line between the light and the dark.
There is just light increasing in brilliance, penetrating darkness til all is bright and clear...
OR darkness creeping up...til light is engulfed and all is dark. (or as they say...light slowly dimming away til light is absent)

Yeap and so the light is out:
1) never depend on artificial lights - they'll blow up on ya
2) there is no line___________________________
3) light is better than darkness. oooh what beautiful things we can see in the light!
4) always depend on light which lasts. no rechargeable batt, no energizer, no ballasts... only... the one and only... eh no... the sun's dying remember? well for me...i've found the one light which i'm confident will last forever - my Lord and God. coz He was around before the sun was up. in fact, it was He who created it!

Imagine...
