Hey MUSTARDSEEDS ;)
How have all of you been? School started not too long ago but I guess some of us are already waiting for the next school hols to come. Yea? Bro Aaron has been busy, so I thought I would just blog about something...let's see...okay I think everybody has done their NAPFA already. Haha I somehow am the only one out of many people in my school enjoy doing NAPFA ;P It's fun okay! I like I like. Hehe
Well, but I also do understand that many do not enjoy that.
Recently it was the retest for 2.4km and being the nice me ;P I decided to accompany my friend to run. She has already ran it twice and this was her third time.
Before we ran I told her this time WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT! Trying to encourage her and she just stared. Fine fine...haha
Anyways, we were running and running and sometimes I did have to drag her to run. She just didn't want to push herself. Running and trying to get her to be motivated, trying to talk her into a more positive mind. Yea, then when we ran past the timer 15 minutes plus and she still had 4 rounds? Then she stopped.
Why should I carry on anymore? I am going to fail anyway. So what if I run? I won't be able to make it. I will still fail anyway, so why waste my energy?
At that point I just smiled and asked her to PLEASE carry on.
I think in life, many times when we are faced with challenges, we just
LOOK IT IN THE EYE AND SAY
you got to be joking.
But that is not what we are made of. In the Bible, it says in Romans 8:37 "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."
What else? in Luke 10:19 "I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you."
God has given us the authority to look things in the eyes and FACE IT. All things are possible with God on our side. For WE BOTH have the authority.
Sometimes, the same problem happens ALL OVER AGAIN. The exact same thing repeating itself ALL OVER AGAIN. Be it family or friends. And we are sick and tired of it. Or maybe even afraid of the hurt it has caused us? (just like my friend who ran 2.4 twice already but still failed)
The power of the enemy -> lies
He says we can never make it through and why go face it in the first place? We aren't good enough look back at our past and look at the number of times we have failed to do anything or to improve the situation.
LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES THEY ARE ALL LIES trying to stop us from pushing our limits to be even more we can be or even being who we are! Sometimes why we like to stay in our comfort zone because we THINK we are going to just ruin/screw it AGAIN. Or we are not good enough.
But hear this: we are all children of God, made to bring glory to his name. of course, many times we fail but we have to believe and have faith. To persevere to pray on in our situations. (keep running) It may be the worse of the worse, we think we cannot take it anymore, but know that God is always by our side seeing us through or have placed ppl around us to do so. and whatever the turn out maybe, God still loves us very much ;)
Haha I know that this has nothing to do with multiplication or anything but was kind of "inspired" to write this. Our friends need someone like God to see them through their struggles. Let's meet their needs by sharing God's love and bring them back to the Father.
;DD keep warring for our friends' lives! YAY ;)
PS: please share your thoughts on this post on the tagboard or write another post kayy? ;) haha...
