Blessings on the Lord's Day
The
trip to Macau was fine - we were dead tired though! I had a good meeting with
one of my bosses to discuss management of work. We then headed straight to the
hospital for my medical appointment. It was quite a wait. By 6 pm everyone was
gone and the office was about to close; I was praying desperately that I could
meet the doctor and complete the paperwork needed. Thankfully everything was
finally done. We managed both ferry rides without throwing up!
Yesterday
we just rested.
This
morning I still felt really tiring. After an afternoon nap, the Lord prompted
me to walk outside. As I exercised in the garden, the glimpse of sunshine
through the clouds lifted my heart. I was reminded of the Lord's face shining
upon us:
Psalm
4:6-8 Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?" Let the light of
your face shine upon us, O Lord. 7 You have filled my heart with greater joy
than when their grain and new wine abound. 8 I will lie down and sleep in
peace, for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. (NIV)
The
Lord gave me hope that He can renew my heart each day even as my body would be
"wasting away" during this time. though my body is failing. [2 Cor.
4:16-17
Though
outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.]
