encouragement

hope

empathy

surrender

peace.


the message in church on sunday was tailor-made for me. =) submission to leaders. it really is a heavy responsibility to be a leader of God's people. i guess it's scary too... and knowing that all the weight of each decision really weighs on them so heavily... i guess i have the 'easy option' - to simply obey Him and choose to submit.

i don't and won't always agree with every decision made, but well, God has placed these leaders there for a reason, and who am i to question His wisdom?

i was also reminded that it's no use just submitting and resenting it. cos God loves the cheerful giver. to obey is better than sacrifice; my heart is more important than my acts. so i am taking all that has happened in as good a light as i can, and i DO believe that God will use it for good, and to grow me.

something someone said a long time ago came to mind: if we are sure that where we are is God's 'best' for us, quit complaining!

=) yes Lord, i hear You. ok ok...

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast because he trusts in you.
