..loved, even at closed eyes..

Time flies fast another page in the calendar was torn. It's definitely October!=) I can't find better way to welcome another month but just to be thankful for all the provisions that I am effortlessly and benevolently receiving from my beloved God. Life is such a funny theater. When the curtains are draw and the lights are on, expect that drama, comedy, and romance rub elbows in a congruently unscripted life. We embrace each in  a certain degree and face each level squarely. At the end of the day, it's not how well we performed or how perfect we delivered our lines. It's all about obedience to your God as your director: to love instinctively,  to give willingly, and to live a life reflecting His heart. When the curtains are closed and the lights are starting to dim, there He will be at the front row sitting, looking at you tenderly, saying "I'm proud of you no matter what!"

As we drove home from the grocery store, I was tired of the day's activities that I happened to lean on my seatmate's shoulder and fell asleep. I realized that no matter what those things that are tiring us and weighing us down, we can quietly lean on God's shoulder. In silence of our hearts, let us be warmed by His unchanging love that is unfathomable to grasp. For anyone around you can hurt you unexpectedly,  can disappointment you big time and can drive your own peace and happiness away. Close your eyes, do not be afraid of the darkness that you see. Trust that even in those closed eyes, a Father's open heart can safely bring you back home unscathed. 

I have my own burdens to carry without anyone knowing. I keep my peace knowing that I am not alone, that my battle has long been won at the Cross. I have the day for my lips to utter those "thank you" instead of "why", and oftentimes, I caught myself  teary-eyed for such an overwhelming pour of supplications. I don't know what else to say, but I know there's a reason for the so much love I have in my heart. I will surely give back to the world what I was endowed with. I hope my own "thank you" will reach at your door steps.

If you could live another day today, how would you let the world know that you are blessed?

..and how would you bless the world?=)
