This is easily my favorite photo of all, for one simple reason, because it’s silly and tt makes me laugh. Humour, no matter how silly it is, is easily the most important ingredient in a relationship. A merry heart doeth good like medicine, even the Bible advocates it. The devil however works at taking away the joy of doing the simplest of things or rather the devil steals away your time with unnecessary and silly demands that deprive you of doing the very things that would keep you happy and satisfied.
To be honest, I wished I had more time to laugh at ourselves. New job demands, an immature boss , parental demands , sighing partners have taken its toll on me. I’ve come to realized that I’ve low tolerance or rather low resistance to circumstances in the now seen world. It drains the life out of me and deprives me from keeping the main thing the main thing. For instance , I don’t know how to uplift Kelly in his foul times, in fact , it “spreads” to me and the good that I want to do, I don’t do! Sulking party continues. This far I know about myself, I’m not resilient to circumstances. I’m not unfazed by moods and pple around me.
I want to see God work through all these things, because all I can do, is to surrender and say “ Hey God, over here, take over.. pls “ , I don’t want to just sing “His grace is sufficient for me”,self pity continues... I want to be able to sing, “Worthy is the Lamb” , “I exalt Thee” through it all. Cos i acknowledge and see in myself no good thing indeed, but in Him , is my redemption and MY SALVATION! I want to see Him in His rightful place, in the heavenly places where the victory has truly been won. Open my eyes Lord.
