Plea of the Weary




When was the last time when you found yourself caught up with seemingly endless paperwork?

How does it feel when you wanted to have a break from your work but you couldn’t do so?

What would you feel when you see everybody get all things done so easily while you could barely finish a portion of your work?


I have no peace, no quietness; I have no rest, but only turmoil.  Job 3:26


For all these recent days I got caught up with all of these things. I can’t feel my eyebrows and my body has grown weary.


In spite of all these miseries, I still firmly believe that something good is yet to come for I know everything works perfectly in His hands. No matter how complicated things may arise, I will praise Him for He is bigger than anything else on Earth. In fact no cosmic body can ever surmount His greatness.


May the Lord forgive me in times when I cry out in anger and anguish. May the Lord give me peace and wisdom to see things beyond human perspective. May the Lord touch my weak soul and through the Holy Spirit cleanse my heart and mind with his holiness. May the Lord touch my heart and whisper through quietness that He is in me. Therefore, when I am weak, I am  also strong.


Let thyself be glad and rejoice for our God’s mercy and love that through His son we see hope, compassion and faith...


AMEN.

When the only thing you can do is Pray



"I called on the Lord in distress; the Lord answered me".                                                                    - Psalm 118:5




To pray - is the last resort of many people when they are hopelessly facing a tremendous problem.

This is wrong, we must not believe on what we selfishly believe. Our faith in Him can be powerful it it is made real and still.




Prayers are powerful more than what we can imagine.



Thank you Lord for inventing prayers
For you gave a way for our distress
Forgive our foolishness
That we may not look prayers less



So, let's not be surprised when the Lord answers our prayers for His power is great and His resources are endless.
