unlearning

.. .

have you ever experienced a point in your life wherein in little by little, you're realizing that you don't know how to do the things you used to do.. .? the things you're good at?

the UNLEARNING process.. . i remember one time, i posted a blog entry from utmost for His Highest entitled Do you see Jesus in your clouds? and a line from that devotional caught me.. .pierced my heart.. .it says.. . Through every cloud He brings our way, He wants us to unlearn something. hoooh.. . i know this one really spoke to me.. .but i haven't realized the whole concept until yesterday.. . to UNLEARN to the truest sense of the word UNLEARN.. . hooh..

first is unlearning this one.. .and then this one.. .and then this one.. .

and this morning I was reminded of Moses.. . a great man.. .intelligent.. .wealthy.. .but at some point in time, God brought him to the desert.. .for him to unlearn everything.. .and learn just ONE THING - HIM.. . to trust Him.. .be satisfied with Him.. ."where other people are but shadows.. ." -Do you see Jesus in your clouds.. .

God places us in the "desert" to prepare us for our call.. .His call.. . unlearning everything.. .so that He can fill you up with something new.. . and you'll always be reminded that you're nothing without Him.. . emptying you so that you may be filled.. .

Et ce processus de vidange se casse très . très humbling .. .realizing que vous n'avez rien .. .you ne sait pas tout. au début, Vous m'avez placé dans cette compagnie pour enseigner .. .after l'interview, il a eu l'air je ne sais plus comment parler la langue. Deuxièmement, je dois me fier en Vous pour me livrer quotidien même si je n'ai rien. Le vidange de mes finances .. .These les expériences est très humbling et très doux... Oh Dieu .. .I ne peut dire rien, mais le merci.

if you're experiencing this season.. . just wanna encourage you that there's also someone here experiencing that.. .^^, press on! there's a lot to learn! just be prepared for your purpose.. .*hugs*

Issues of the mom-heart

I've read somewhere that everyone's miserable. They're just good at hiding it. I have been trying to find out why this new season seems to be a burden to me. Don't get me wrong -- I enjoy motherhood and I love my little one but something seems to be blocking my view of experiencing it joyfully.  Callie's already 10 months and everything just dawned on me -- why I was struggling, why I can't see things the way it should be, why I felt ineffective and frustrated and depressed. I think I just had post-partum depression.  I just got back from my US business trip and I just bursted into tears a few days after while singing Jesus loves me -- as if I'm telling that to myself. I'm grateful that I have a husband who listens and understands and encourages me that I can do it! I just realized the root cause(s) of what's going on after that incident. I was too attached to Callie that I don't want her to leave my site when I'm with her. I

Maturity

I was reading a long-overdue-book and I bumped into this: I have been married for almost two years now and I suddenly reminisced my late teenage years... It was in those years when God made me realize that maturity doesn't come with age... I was younger then, when I understood this very excerpt from the book Let Me Be a Woman (funny how everything He taught me is already in this book had I not stopped reading it! Indeed His humor is amazing). I started reading this way back 2007 or 2008 only to continue it now and read this now. I stopped reading it way back then because I don't have plans of getting married yet... little did I know that He will make me understand this in His own personal way. And right now, I was like, "So Lord, You must be saying, 'I told you so..' right?" haha! ...  The key to meeting your better half starts with maturity. And maturity comes from God.   To those who are still searching for their better half, don't. Don&#

Thoughts

Exodus Moses brought Joseph's bones out of Egypt when God freed them. Joseph made his family swear under oath that when God pays them a visit, they have to carry his bones with them. Joseph mentioned that surely, God will take them to the land He promised Abraham, Isaac & Jacob. Maybe, Joseph's brothers tell this to their sons & daughters so even after x number of years, they are still reminded of Joseph's request. The Israelites know that the time will come when God will take them out of Egypt but maybe they just didn't believe so He needed Moses to perform the miracles, that they might know Him, trust Him and believe in Him. Sometimes, we know what God said and what God promised us... but when it's already in front of us, it's hard to determine that God is already moving. Why? Because we are comfortable with the misery that we are in to. It dulls our senses and makes us forget the promise of God. Be careful with where you are right now.
