Before I go out
Parents want to speak
My time is often disturbed
In a respectful tone in Christ’s strength
Speak out for the main point
Due to time issue
They understand and cooperate
Pointing their ways to prioritize family
Peace from Holy Spirit keep me still
Discernment enters
Knowing own weaknesses
Agree certain ways to prioritize
Overcommitment wearies the body
Rest are needed
To share God’s love to others
Own spirit glues to Lord Jesus
Dictating own soul and body
Body wearies and disrupt whole system
Now learning to say no
In order to reserve body energy
To live for Christ
Chronic migraine worsen lately
Pain throbs and tighten
Body cries in pain
Inspiration On: Wednesday, 16 March 2016
I want to bring my son out with me. But he complains stomachache. After he consumes medication, he farts and feel better. Dad and mum tells me not to bring him out. If anything happens, my husband will blame me. Therefore, I ask my son whether to bring him out. Quietly, he and I submit to my parents. His silence shows his understanding of my difficulty. Then they tell me to come home earlier. Before I go out, they tell me to sit down and listen to them. Dad says that he and mum are different but he never stops mum from going to temple and bring the children there too. Mum advises me to care the family first. However, he complains my mum to always go out. However, he forgets that he always went out during younger days. She voices out her assumptions on me. Not to be like my business mentor. That pisses me off. Don’t always go for church activities. That also pisses me off. I thank God to be quiet. Then I speak out that I meet people to ask for job opportunities. They and their assumptions. In fact, I should have listened to God and stop the courtship. It’s better to listen to God.
Wish you all have good days and thank you.
