Encouraging others doesnt always benefit only one person.. Was talking to Jiahui on the way home after gym-ing in school.. well..many things happened in our lives, things that we see as failures and unglam.. Things that should never have happened, decisions that we regretted..all these are still hurting our hearts.. Somehow, they are not going away..And its kinda affecting both of us.. As for me, its the issue of trust. How to trust, who can i trust? Questions that i asked myself.. i even have thoughts that i might not trust anymore.. i have forgotten how to.. no confidence in those that i want to trust. What if i get hurt again..But as i was sharing some stuff with Esther, i realised that there are things that applies very much to myself as well.. Its not about the surroundings anymore.. It is whether i have the faith to go on trying.. and building myself up, overcoming all the strongholds and negative thoughts that i have in my life after going through all the unhappy stuffs. One of the leaders shared this with me: Going through the same (or similar) events (or obstacles) does not mean that you are stuck in one place. As you overcome these again and again.. you are actually moving towards recovery of the past hurts that you have. Don look at life in a 2 dimension manner, look at it in a 3-dimension manner.. See yourself moving on and moving up.. Breaking all the strongholds in life and begin to get stronger.. Hahas.. This reminds me of the decisions that i need to make.. To be positive or to be negative.. And i am going to take the narrow way.. even if it is hard, even if it is going to cause me something.. I am going to make it and overcome anything that will affect me spiritually, mentally and emotionally.. This refreshes my mind and enlighten me too.. so.... Like what i told Esther, I am goin to smile no matter what happened..In whatever situation i am stuck in, good or bad, i am going to press into Jesus and know that He is always there for me! yeah!! Smile everyone! Encourage others and be encouraged too!! iDestinee. |
