Lessons Learnt

I have had a troubled heart for awhile now, for reasons I myself aren’t too sure about. Maybe I do but I just can’t pin them down exactly. But it has certainly been a learning experience for me, and I am still learning.

Lessons I have learnt anew, those that are refreshed and reinforced in me:

• God is good, though He seem faraway sometimes, He is not
• Regardless of what I feel and experience, God is love, full of grace,
..hope and peace
• Even though the sufferings I experienced are so real,
..God is even more real
• He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world
• Life here is just temporary, I look forward to my eternal home
..with God
• Life is not me, me and me; through what I have experienced,
..I need to pray for others more fervently
• I am fallible, weak and frail; I am humbled in His perfection
• I am His

Psalm 23
A Psalm of David.

1 The LORD is my shepherd;
......I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
......He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul.
......He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
......I will fear no evil, for you are with me;
......your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
......you anoint my head with oil;
......my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
......and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
