Let's Move On-Let's see the Big Picture

Someone asked me: " Cher, Update your blog leh? Veri long never update liao?"

Yes, yes... here i am again- Updating my blog.

It's not that I am lazy but i blog only when things happens that required some serious reflection for myself & for my reader.

Let's move on....
Recently, my friend lost everything (in his context) in one sitting.
How much can a young man's heart bear such pain and measure?
He has so many people to meet?
Can he go through all these?
Though I may not totally agree with the measures taken towards him.
There's always consequences
But we reap what we sow.
Sad, heart brokened, despaired, helpless... but i pray that you will rise up above all these situation like Job- Mature, stronger in the Lord

Job, in our today's context, a God-fearing successful businessman, a multi-millionaire lost everything in 1 day, his business, his family and worse inherited illness. (You can read his lifestory in the Bible Job)
But he CHOOSE to give thanks to God.
He choose to LOOK to God for Strength.

Yes, he does have some good buddies. But some of them did not give him good advices- they asked him to curse God and die!
But Job chose the former- he chose to Thank God and LOOK to God for Strength.

My friend, I know and am glad that you do have some good buddies,some 7 years of close friends and your 2nd family members.
You've heard and will hear of some not so nice advices that wrestled against your good nature.
But I know that you will do what is good and right and pleasing to God.
Never let emotions lead you But allow the Holy Spirit to guide you.
Allow His staff and rod to lead you (Ps 23)
Draw close to Him and He will draw close to you.
Seek Him and He will be found by you.

Read Romans 8:28. See the Big Picture. Let's move on.

Our prayer and support are with you. Press on brother! The best has yet to be!

To my friend's buddies- It's time for you to be your brother's keeper.
What does a brother's keeper do?....
Think about it. You can discuss it on my tag.

Blessings to you!
