Water


I just got back from a trip to Mersing.I wouldnt say it's a bad or a good trip,so I guess OK is the word to describe it.Spent a night over at Ying Zhi's kelong and it was rather a new experience.It's not the fancy kind of holidays most of us would prefer but it certainly does gives me a new perspective on relaxing.The calmness in the day and strong wind at night is really nice.So,thanks Ying Zhi for the hospitality!By the way,the food was great too!


Speaking about sea,I thought of WATER.Water is a very important source in our lives as all of us have learnt in science.We all need water to keep our body functioning and survive.Well,think of it from another perspective,flowing water never can be broken,right?That's just like God's love for us.Continuously running,it will never be broken.It will always be there for us.The love of God keeps us going and by His grace we are safe.Isnt that just like water?


Besides that,have you all ever been by a river?If so,have you noticed how does the river flow?It's always downstream isnt it?Christian life is just like going upstream and not down.We are called to be different and it's never an easy path.We are like going against the flow of the river,which in this case symbolises the world around us.Most of us will be comfortable following it downstream but that should not be the way.


Our lives can be compared to the sea too.The sea is not always calm.There will be waves and maybe even tsunami once in a while.It's just like stages or tests in each and everyone of our lives.At the end of the day,everything will be fine again.Water is something that will never run out,just like God's love for us all.It's up to us to decide if we want to drink water,which is whether we want to accept His love for us.


I guess as people,we are all born with a nature to try to speak our mind on almost everything,especially into our people's life.Mayb sometimes we should just give those people their deserved space and time and I believe God has already or will bring certain people into their lives to resolve those so-called "problems.Do not be tsunami to these people's lives.


Plants need water to survive.Without it,it will withered.Just like our lives,without God we will be going nowhere and withered.Right now,I do feel like a withering plant,needing "water" to rejuvenate myself once more...
