Thanks For Every Grace

 

As each day unfolds, we also face various forms of situations….situations that would bring us closer to our Creator…..And as each situation unfolds, we are called to decide whatever action we will give to each of the situation. And as each day goes by, we should also be grateful to God for all the graces we harvest from the events of the day.

Gratefulness is a virtue and it should be generously shared to all that deserve it. Let us not allow each graced moment to pass without being recognised. Being grateful is not difficult to express and this would also be manifested to everyone if the situation calls for it.

Even if each day passes by, let us consistently remember to put importance on every positive thing that happens our day. Be generous in extending your generosity to others.

Trust In The Lord

 

Proverbs 3:5-6 ” Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.

In our life, there is always that given reality that things can either go right or the other way around. When things go as planned, don’t forget to offer prayers of thanksgiving to Him Above as He directed things to be that way. Yet when things go wrong, remain steadfast in your trust in Him for He will never abandon you in spite of such contradictions.

You can never expect things to follow the way you want them to be yet you can always try your best for them to be as best as you can imagine. Never allow failures to set in your way, rather acknowledge them and check what could be done to make them succeed next time around.

God never allow you to drift the wrong way, it is just yourself through your own will who chooses things to be in your own way. Driven by your self-centredness, you tend to control things by your own powers however, as human as you are, there would always be things that are beyond your control.

Hence, before all things, put your trust first on Him Above and everything will be alright (though they could never be perfect). Allow change to happen in your life and embrace it with serenity and joy. Trust in God and He will always guide you to your right path.

Learn To Stay Positive Each Single Day

 

As we are nearing to the end of this week, perhaps becomes obvious to us that we have plenty of experiences and memories within the week. Some may be unpleasant and others are too excellent that they will always remain in our hearts for they also give us wisdom and growth.

Moreover, this is beneficial for us to learn how to appreciate each day that comes our way. May it be a pleasant one or the other way around BUT somehow, if we reflect on it, there would always be lessons that we can learn from them.

Thus, may we learn to express gratitude to all those memories and pay them forward by doing good things to others so that in our own little way, we could also share sunshine to others.

Cheer Up....Everyday

 

In the midst of all these life’s trials, always find a positive stroke to it. After all, not at all in life is bad or dark, instead there is always that side that brings positive aspect to our life. Always remember that there is always two sides of a coin.

If we look back on the experience of the disciples, they were put into the test when they tried to follow Jesus. But somehow, aided by their strong belief in Jesus and their faith in themselves, they hurdled all those trials and emerged triumphant over them.

We are also called to do the same. After each rain, the sun will come out and brings colours to our life. When we are troubled by our everyday crosses such as relationship conflicts, financial burdens, material deprivations, emotional draught etc., constantly look on the other side of life and in  there, you will find comfort.

Somehow, it is true that it will do us no good if we keep on comparing ourselves with  others yet if we give a closer look at this life’s reality, we can still consider ourselves as more fortunate to others. Thus, come out of your shell and celebrate each single day with a smile in your face.

On Simplicity

 

Simplicity is a mere single word yet for some it is a difficult thing to do. However if we look back to the life of the apostles, they exemplified to us how to live a simple life. What ought then to be realised that in life, what count the most is how we live our life each day.

If we then are able to extend ourselves to others even in simple ways such as greeting them a simple hello and hi to brighten their day plus other means of simple yet meaningful ways to share a smile perhaps on their gloomy faces and that exactly is what counts most on this earth.

Further, let us be generous in our smile to others….a simple life live in all honesty is more than what is expected from us…rather than keeping a complicated lifestyle with all the modern complexities that befall our humanity nowadays.
