And this week there&#8217;re simply a lot of things with exams, paper, plannings, and even work itself have few concerns in my mind and heart.<\/p>\n<p>Hence the question on last nite study and few days of thinking&#8230;.really brought me down to the point that life is just dragging a heavy burden.<\/p>\n<p>Nearing the end of my jog (on the road to FP&#8230;hehe), suddenly i thought that what a waste that i go out and return the same. I would miss the oppurtunity to enjoy the nature and the jog itself that i almost never fail to enjoy. SO i simply sang out my own tunes and song (i thought not bad&#8230;hehe), without i realized&#8230;.it goes on, and i simply feel like being in presence of God. All my worry and troubles seem to cease, and on top of that, i gained insight into something really important that i don&#8217;t think i could ever reach that insight myself. It must be God&#8217;s given.<\/p>\n<p>And all the way back, i simply worshipping Him and enjoying Him. That i know what it means to seek Him for His sake alone, and not for other things which He can and will do. There&#8217;s a difference to seek Him to get something and to seek Him just for pleasure. When we seek Him for Him alone, as He promised, we will find Him&#8230;and He might even bestow gifts which we need. To me, it happened at unexpected time and place when I in fact not seeking him but rather some emotional release&#8230;.of course been meditating on Paul&#8217;s letter to Timothy on what he said that God himself will make it clear to Tim.<\/p>\n<p>And i&#8217;m just curious, feeling in my heart that someone must have prayed for me. Else this kind of thing does not happen everyday (though it will be good to have it at least once a week..hehe). How much more valuable one day in presence of the Lord than thousand days in other place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s at most unexpected place and time, but he did it again.
