Psalmes 37:5
Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.
There are weeks like this that I live through and as the week comes to an end, I'm amazed at how God has brought me through. It starts with a horrid feeling on the weekends because of the anticipated new week would bring about major projects or endless business meetings that are full of issues and problems.
This week was a classic example. I was exhausted from 3 days of late nights since last friday, no thanks to church work plus the silly iPad keeping me up. By the time I stepped into Monday, I was physically dead. Tuesday and Wednesday were major meetings with my countries and there was so much uncertainties ahead that preparing for the meeting was mentally draining.
However, as I trudged on in my best effort, the hours and days passed. Opportunities arouse to end the day early and I pushed myself to get into my jogging routine and managed to sleep well for a night. So, here I am on a friday, ready to get cracking at another weekend of going into the house of God to serve and to worship. It'll be another busy weekend that would drain me more than what my colleagues enjoy on their lazy weekends, but I know I was born with such a purpose and I'll serve with every opportunity I can unless He says otherwise.
I thank God, because in He helps me with everything I do in the workplace and miraculously smooths all the bumpy issues of my work life. Allowing me to be whole, complete and ready to serve Him on weekends. Because of what He does, I can whole-heartedly serve and praise Him.
I'm so looking forward to the weekends now! Praise the Lord.
