Sometimes you just gotta PAUSE.
PAUSE- the art of taking breaks in the midst of our busyness.
Perhaps it is more of a necessity than an art...the need for the 2 vertical lines (ll) However, a concept such as PAUSE is such a rarity in our lives these days. Everything is just so fast and chop-chop. We drive fast, we speak fast, we eat fast, we type fast,we text fast, we text short, we sleep less... all these take place bcz we want everything to happen immediately. If a website does not load within 5sec we think something is wrong with the internet; if our food is not ready within 10mins, we think the restaurant is inefficient... Our world has become so fast-paced, yet we still have very little time for things that truly matter in our lives like prayer, worship, family and friends.........Where has time gone? Perhaps it is not time that we need to save but our lives that we must reorganize.
Pausing is a lost art these days. Without pauses to reflect how can we reevaluate our lives? If we only know hw to press the forward button or the next button, will we ever have space to recuperate? If we don't know how can we finish this race and finish it strong?
All of us need to learn to pause; pause to think things through, pause to just be thankful for all that God has put into our lives. It is imperative that we do so otherwise we will just get into the motions without purpose.

Went for w49, w42, w43 and w59 CG's prayer meeting. Carried a heart of burden, many things happened in this whole week. I try to be strong in front of everyone but when everytime I come before God, I'm so weak. I cry, like a little girl crying in her daddy's embrace. Poured out my feelings, burden, problems unto Him. He loves me so so much, He is always there for me.
" I'll take control of everything." He whispered.
Tears kept rolling down my cheeks. Thank you for holding me tight and reminding me who You are.
How great is Your love.
