isn't He sweet?

I've been through the wilderness for the past months and I've learned a lot of things.. . One is to be at peace and to just endure even when you don't know what's happening. Surely He has a plan and for sure, you'll learn a lot. The decision to resign to the previous company I worked with was hard. I really hate goodbyes but I have to obey. It's clear. I wanted to think logically like if I stay until August or September, I'll still have enough means to live by before school (since I'm planning to take up my masters). But His words are so clear.. .

How humble they are and how transparent they can be. Plus the fact that they're not ashamed of admitting their weaknesses. I had this habit before of revealing my struggles to my peers or my co-leaders or to selected people only.. . And after hearing this, I was thinking, why was I afraid of showing my weakness to those around me? Why should I always have to show the image that I am strong when in fact, I do undergo trials and "thumping" seasons? Then I was reminded of what Elizabeth Elliot wrote to her daughter (from the book Let Me Be a Woman). She said that she (Valerie, her daughter), once she got married, should always remind herself that she married a sinner. Because of your always being together, you'd think that he's Mr. Right and he can never be wrong. That's the reason why most
