Quite thankful, to think about it.
First of all, really had such an awesome message last week in church. Pastor really speak my hear out and was really comforted. Didn’t know that God would do it this way .. I was blown away. Slowly and surely picking myself up, it was the most terrible season though, everything that was suppressed surfaced and really exploded. Guess it’s right to have a good clean up, refreshed myself and take some rest before moving on again.
To think back really thankful for the friends around me, although all don’t know what’s going on and don’t know how to react to it or simply don’t know how to express it. Very glad to have those kids (a.k.a. grandsons) around .. because usually it’s them who will melt my heart. One of them, when we met up, actually bug me to tell him what happened, shake me, poke me and just showing his care. Of course, I don’t know how to tell him and honestly no point also. Therefore, I smiled and in a way ignored him .. to think back I’m quite disappointing with what I’ve done and I do hope he understands me. Will of course explain to him soon. It’s really because of what he did that some how encouraged me alittle. I felt a sense of importance at least to a person and the world isn’t that lonely after all; felt loved actually.
Then I have this cute little grandson who I think don’t know how to express his encouragement, try to show me video to cheer me up and while on the journey back from service we talked .. we have to you see because there’s only him and me although I really don’t feel like. Anyway. I asked about his week and as usual not that good and he goes on to tell me what about it then later his turn to ask me so I’m like “wow .. ok.” So I told him not that good, blah blah .. so he encouraged me by saying, “hope to see you better next week.” simple but I know it’s not easy for age like them to actually care for someone so I really appreciated. It’s also him who actually cared and asked about me behind my back (heard from his “mum”). So after all, quite blessed.
Actually for me, it’s really the presence of someone that’s mean to me. It’s not about the bugging that I felt love but his presence .. maybe that’s why my love language is quality time and not word of affirmation. It reminds me of this video and the words he speak, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_3UI–v_xY&feature=related, he said that sometimes we don’t need to have the answers but just love them like Jesus, just be there together with him and sometimes don’t even have to speak a word. I’ve experienced this, I’m thankful.
To think about it, quite saddening to see more mature Christians forgotten about this kind of child-like love. They thought leaving me alone or giving me verbal companion is encouragement to me and something I need. Nevertheless, I’m still thankful for them though, at least they still care for me but those who stand by me physically mean alot more to me (although they don’t know what happen). Maybe this is not some ikan bilis relationship but maybe I’ve been sowing into them .. relationship is 2 sided, I’m gonna cherish this kind of relationship.
But of course the most important Person, Jesus. How can I fail to see Your mercy and grace? Your faithfulness and unconditional love? You gave me hope when I felt like there’s nothing much I think this world would give. You shown me those people that cares for me at least to make my living in this world loving and enjoying. You gave me this song and it meant every single word to You and Your words to me,
Hillsong - Take All Of Me
You broke the night like the sun
And healed my heart with Your great love
Any trouble I couldn’t bear
You lifted me upon Your shoulders
A love that’s stronger
A love that covers sin
And takes the weight of the world
I love You
All of my hope is in You
Jesus Christ, take my life
Take all of me
You stand on mountaintops with me
With You I walk through the valleys
You gave Your only son for me
Your grace is all I rely on
I love You so
And I give up my heart to say
I need You so
My everything
Thank You Lord for Your love and blessing me through these 2 little brothers.
Love.
