This is my 3rd week at work officially. There were the joys as well of the struggles of fitting and adjustment.
After 2 weeks in the field, the Lord had been ever gracious in all ways and truths. To date I've completed meeting with 39 branches, leaving me with only 11 other branches. Certainly by His grace altogether ... 
Just yesterday I was so overwhelmed by despair. It was at 8pm that I fell on my knees in prayer ... in realization of how messy my life had been. I've heard a rather shocking news today at work from a close collegue .. left me with lots of wondering thoughts, very very unhealthy ones ... I did in all my strength to not succumb to them .. so I put in the Hope album ... and it was at the song written from Psalm 27 .. to bless the Lord that I was struck awesome.
Some many many months back when this album was first release, me and another fren was totally crazy about it and we were back at my old office listening to this album aloud and when this song came on .... he ran over and asked me do you know from where did was this song written?! Psalm 27! What spoke right through me in this song is the chorus, " ... that I will bless the Lord .." it had been my heart's greatest desire to be a blessing to wherever the Lord takes me ... to whom that I will be in touch with ... it had been my deepest prayer that I would be used by Him to touch many lives .
Yet as the months passed by, the waves and storms of life certainly had three me off track ... more then I've ever realize .... and it was on my knees at that moment that the Lord reminded me of this my desire and how pleased it would be to Him ... What was more amazing is that as He reminded me the very depth of my heart, He said, " that indeed as you desire .. so I would bless you even more abundantly ... more then your nake eyes or your imagination can take you ... across the physical realm ... look into the spiritual realm and belive!"
He was just so good ya ... rekindling the passion of my life ... Indeed nothing was matters more and even more delightful to please the Lord my God ...
Yet on the contrary, a sense of despair washed over me ... as I pondered upon my current condition, how I had grew tired and fearful ... my dream had been stolen ... tears poured out buckets and buckets ... gosh!
Even so, He had not forgotten His promises ... as I delighted myself in Him .. He will straightened my path ... His faithfulness saw me through even when all things fails .... At the eyes of pain, fear & dissapointments, He whisper His love song to me.. it wasn't I that reached out to Him but it was Jesus that held me right from the begining of it all ... He had it all fashioned out beautifully ... because He first loved ...
Thank you Jesus!
