Just to share one part of my weekly reflections:

During the journey back home yest, as I was chatting with some dancers on the bus, an incident sparked one of them to ask me if God was teaching me patience (well its true also) and he happened to mention abt a dialogue in Evan Almighty about how God will provide opportunities in order for one to learn something he has prayed for instead of just granting it directly. Well, in this case, it was an opportunity provided for me to learn patience through the incident as I've been praying for. More importantly, i related this to what I've been praying for during the past weeks for God to teach me about security in myself and my satisfaction in life in my relationship with God, not Man. I realized even through the various incidents i've experienced recently, those were not necessary the devil's works trying to destroy me but I see them in a new light as opportunities for me to learn and test my security in myself and satisfaction in life. Well, i would say I handled it better now than before, but now I pray that there wld be more opportunities such that one day, instead of being affected and destroyed by similar incidents, I can proclaim that I'm secure and satisfied in who God is in me!
