I wonder what had happened. But the fact is I have not made an entry this year \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two things I learnt this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Be humble. Not that it’s something new. But it means you listen to others. There are voices that meant to distract \/ destroy you. But there are voices that care for you. Just because they disagree with you, does not mean they are harmful to you. The ability to discern the motive behind…out of care or out of hatred (Proverbs 27:6 – Faithful are the wounds of a friend; profuse are the kisses of an enemy.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Be merciful. The same weaknesses in others might be well living in me as well.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Reminded me of this bible verse to close:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0And what does the Lord require of you?
    To act justly and to love mercy
    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and to walk humbly with your God.<\/p>Micah 6:8<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
