hmm.. i just wanna share sumthing that strikes me this couple of days.
mm i was reading a book called Warrior Chicks by Holly Wagner! (love her!!) it talks about how we (girls) have to be warriors and all that. anyway..
i've been thinking about the problems that we have in life and how we react towards that problems. sometime we always ask God why why why and why! i don't want this bla bla bla bla and we don't know how to respond to the problems in front of us. we thought (at least i do!) this is too hard and goes on and on.. here i wanna share sumthin that makes me feel like i have to be thankful for my problems. Even though as humans, obviously its hard and we hate it. but the good news is there is a purpose behind all these problems. yey! Sometimes we worry too much and we forgot about what God is doing in our lives through our problems.
In her book Holly Wagner use the illustration :
in 1991, 8 scientists created an artificial environment in Oracle, Arizona called biosphere 2. Anyway, they created artificial sea, gardens, trees, desert, rain forest, weather condition, all except wind. after a while without the stress of wind that strengthen the woods, the trees snapped, trunks goes week, and couldn't hold its own weight. like it or not, weathering trials is what builds our strength. ya gituh lah pokoknya..
imagine us without problems. maybe we sometimes feel like our problems are making us exhausted and it takes our smile away and bla bla.. but we're wrong. hihihi in fact our problems makes us stronger and stronger..
so... maybe the next time we have a problem we should try fighting it with a smile.. its hard and its kind of vague but in the bible God says...
Proverbs 21:31
Do your best, prepare for the worst-
then trust God to bring victory..
(Horeeeeeeeee mantep kan!)
Proverbs 15:13
"A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face;
a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day"
So after all we should just smile, try hard, and have faith hihi
Dont worry be happy dah :)
