Not Fate, Just Choices

Posted by May on Saturday, July 31, 2010

Roads in life diverge. Sometimes into two, three, or more. Some routes might appear to have been less traveled on. But that doesn’t make me afraid. I don’t believe in fate. I believe in making choices and sticking to it. And playing your best with the hand that you’ve been dealt with. That’s all that matters. That’s making a difference.

Life is one hell of a game, only one that you can’t stop. You meet teams that you have to compete with, and you just can’t say no. Sometimes you fall. Why? Just so you learn to pick yourself up and continue fighting. Sometimes you lose. Why? Just to know it takes more than a fight to win a game.

It’s that courage to continue, that makes the difference in every game.

Sometimes

Sometimes, I find myself taking my car out for a drive at night - alone. Sometimes when I'm driving, I know where the next road leads me, I know that taking that exact road leads me closer to a known destination. But yet sometimes, I find myself spinning around in circles, on roads that aren't familiar to me and finding a road that leads to nowhere - just a dead end.

Sometimes, I travel on roads which I'm not familiar with because I still believe that there's something left installed for me - I just have to look for it. But yet sometimes, I lose my mind second guessing every single thought. That something that was once left installed for me to discover is already gone.

A prayer

Posted by May on Tuesday, July 27, 2010

"Lord, I pray that you save those who are crushed in spirit, who's heart are broken" Psalm 34:18

Lord, you know what they are going through, and they will never understand why some things have happened the way they have. So I pray that you not allow their emotions to rule over their choices. I pray that they seek you for the answers and guidance Lord, for you are the God who heals. You are the god who protects.

You are the same god who has done miracles and wonders, and you are the same God who will continue to do miracles and wonders in years to come. So, I place all my trust in you. I pray that you be with them in there times of needs. Cause you are the Lord God, and only you will have the answers to all the unanswered questions.

I pray that people that are currently so crushed in spirit, who's hears are broken, that you will be there to comfort them. I pray that you give them the strength to seek comfort in you Lord, because right now, the person they need most is not anyone else but you.

In Jesus's name, Amen.


P.S: I'm one of 'them'.

It 'hits' me just fine

There are some things that happens in life without any warning that that no one has any control over. And, I guess this is just one of those times where I find myself standing in the dark with questions that are seeking answers but knowing I will never be able to comprehend why some things have happened the way they are.

And no matter how much I think about it, no matter how much I pray over it - I know it's something that will always remain a question mark in my mind.

There are no reasonable explanations that can justify one's reason to leave all of a sudden with only a few minutes of warning just before departure. I barely had time to digest the information. How do you comprehend it all? You don't.

Whatever it is, I'm glad to say, it 'hits' me just fine.
