18 Mar 09 - Ordinary time

if there's 'ordinary days' in life, i guess tis period must be my ordinary days.. not that i believe in it, afterall God creates each day specially for us, there's always something special in that 24hrs. but i admit i've been lazy, too slacken to look for the twinkle in the dark.. wake up-morn jog(f i'm in the mood)-work-home-sleep has been such a norm, such a comfortable norm that i dun feel like moving out of the routine..

but i thank God - He hears my prayers (whether i really meant it or not - my word(prayer) is my bond) and He sent so many friends who out-of-no-reason 'date' me out for old times' sake.. so much so that my mum once called to 'complain' that it's been a week since she last saw me in person.. well, it's good to know i still have so many friends - socially active ones, when i've been hermit from them for ages.. well, i guess doors of friendship never close :) .. and you know, how God works- He is just TOO GREAT for my limited comprehension. Well, we all know socialising = going out = spending money (afterall, this is Singapore). He din just stop at sending friends to help my social life; He also sent finances. Yes, i know i shared before how He has never let my wallet goes empty.. but i just have to praise God again! He is never late in His blessings! just as i'm worrying my expenditure budget for all those catching-ups and 2 wedding blessings this month, our Heavenly Father sent His financial blessings twice! ok, the first time i took it for granted (i really have this strong faith that somehow He will provide).. but when this second time comes along, i have to be 'fair' to God.. i mean, come'on, when our earthy father gives us blessings we say thanks, right? moreover He is our HEAVENLY FATHER, the Jehovah Jireh! Thanks be to God in the highest!!

if there's anything i've learnt during these lazy ordinary days, it will be humility to give thanks.
nothing happens unless God allows. when God allows in His plan, it has to serve for the better of me. in this ordinary time, even though i've taken a step back from being faithful to God, God is ever so faithful with His ever-watching eyes and love towards me! ... that's goodness in ordinary time, afterall - His Great Love in action.
