Blessed are the poor in spirit Matt 5:3
Alrighty! Knock off at work, went for a jog cum walk (have to walk cause no stamina) and now i'm just going to do a quick write on some thoughts.
Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven (NKJV)
I couldn't understand how the poor in spirit could be bless. But now i see the point in being hungry and in need of God. Thirsty for His word everyday is indeed a blessing.
In other words, We are to be envied and congratulated if we see our spiritual need of the King who teaches us how to:
1) Admit our spiritual bankruptcy
2) Mourn our wrongs rather than defending ourselves.
3) Inherit the earth rather than trying to conquer it.
4) Hunger for the kind of rightness that makes us merciful.
5) See God with our hearts rather than with our eyes.
6) Be peacemakers rather than warmongers.
7) Be punished for trying to help others rather than hurt them (5:3-12).
- I never thought of vs 3-112 in such a manner before. Be pinished for trying to help others rather than letting them be hurt. Ouch.. and not only that i might not be appreciated.
That's all from me today.

Snippets
1/6/2009 -- Monday
Today i started on what i wanted to do.
I'm not sure if i slept last night, but i woke up at ard 5am and decided that since i couldn't get to sleep i might as well do sth abt it.
I've always wanted to do my quiet time in the morning. But most of the time i couldn't get up. Perhaps God knew my heart. He knew i needed this time to read His word, meditate and just lean on him for comfort and strength. Usually i'm very grumpy when i don't get to sleep. Today was of no exception, accept that after doing my quiet time i felt somewhat at peace. Thanks to the sms the kids have been sending me, saying that they'll pray for me.
Although it hasn't been easy leading, but its such little moments as such which makes it feel all worthwhile.

AGain i'm not sure if i slept last night. But the weather has been somewhat hot. Perhaps i need to go for a relaxing jog today, cool down. Perhaps that will help?
Need to be more diligent in taking care of myself. More calcium, more iron, more protein! I don't what to be this skinny either... it was nice to read the newspaper yesterday on this columnist who was facing the same problem as me! We are both not trying to lose weight and yes being underweight makes us prone to osteoperosis.
My sister is down with a sore throat. Think she just needs more water and rest. Hope she recovers soon.
Hopefully i can make this day fruitful just as it was yesterday. Looking forward to the jog that i've planned.

DIdn't manage to do the jog that i planned. When i got home, i was too hungry to jog.
5/6/2009 -- Friday
Didn't sleep well last night. Too many things whirlling in my head and just too afraid to take the plunge. I like the tune of TrueHearts being played in their advertisement. The piano piece is really nice. I like it when they show the little girl dancing to the tune. Wish my heart could dance with joy just like her.
