TWO MORE WEEKS!

YAY!!! I'm literally counting down to my holidays cuz i can finally get the chance to earn some $$$$$. and finally i can get to wake up AFTER sunrise (for 4 weeks at least =)). Things are moving along and subtly but surely, things are moving positively! I've been really tired of late and i'm not quite sure why (although there never seems a time i'm actually fresh) but the feeling that you're doing something which is making a difference is more than enough for encouragement/motivation. Oh, and something happened today which made me feel really lousy. It wasn't my fault but it just sucks when bad things happen to good people. It's totally undeserving but that's when we gotta trust God even more. I PRAY FOR HIS EYE TO RECOVER!! I guess you won't really know how it feels when someone out of goodwill, kindheartedness, care and sacrifice gets hurt for something he doesn't deserve. and i'm talking about a friend here (in case you guys think i'm talking about e Cross) =). But all the more i'll pray for my brother and God is MORE THAN ENOUGH and GREATER than what happened. Okay i'm getting really random in my words now cuz i'm seriously konking out right now. Gotta go. test tomorrow!! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Correction upward is REBELLION


Numbers 12:1-9While they were at Hazeroth, Miriam and Aaron criticized Moses because he had married a Cushite woman. They said, "Has the Lord spoken only through Moses? Hasn't he spoken through us, too?" But the Lord heard them. Now Moses was more humble than any other person on earth. So immediately the Lord called to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam and said, "Go out to the Tabernacle, all three of you!" And the three of them went out. Then the Lord descended in the pillar of cloud and stood at the entrance of the Tabernacle. "Aaron and Miriam!" he called, and they stepped forward. And the Lord said to them, "Now listen to me! Even with prophets, I the Lord communicate by visions and dreams. But that is not how I communicate with my servant Moses. He is entrusted with my entire house. I speak to him face to face, directly and not in riddles! He sees the Lord as he is. Should you not be afraid to criticize him?" The Lord was furious with them, and he departed.
In this story, Aaron and Miriam decide that they know more than the leader of Israel. When they start seeing themselves wise in their own eyes, the Lord Himself makes a visit to set things straight. He terrifies Aaron and Miriam in their rebellion, leaving them very persuaded that Moses has the hand of God on his life.
Authority is not something to be taken lightly. All authority has been set in position by God. When we step outside of that authority, even in our hearts, we position ourselves to be rebuked by circumstances of disfavor and discomfort. But when we humbly accept the authority under which God places us, praying for them and honoring them, God preserves us no matter what comes. If you ever feel the need to correct those in authority over you, remind yourself to be devoted to what God has entrusted to you.

arggggghh


Isn't it just strange and disheartening when e good things you offer produce a completely different response? I'm not even talking about reciprocation. I'm talking about perceptions that are WORLDS APART. Reasonings that completely do not make sense to each other. It's disheartening because the help you offered is sincere and most importantly, fruit-bearing but it just doesn't seem that way in the eyes of another, one you really respect and look up to. I hate justification, especially of one-self. But sometimes, you can't just sit there having the other thinking that your motives and attitudes are not right when you sincerely just WANT TO HELP. I mean, isn't easier to say "no" when others request for your help than to say "yes" and commit time and energy into helping that someone(some people)? Why is it that it seems i'm justifying myself when i really hate it and when i KNOW my intentions are sincere? STRANGE but it's a mystery yet to be solved. and this is bugging me bigtime. argggh.
