Random - blessings (LONG POST)
okay, its e-learning week and i havent even READ my assignments O_O. and i just received news tt cgm will be at wenrui's house! omg the horror..lol. BISHAN! and omg i knew it today itself O_O. luckily i have no school till 6pm. if not not only ill be late, i might miss cg, even if i make it, itll start late, and as a result i might miss the last train, as a result i might end up spending 1x-2x dollars on cab fare, and might be inclusive of midnight charges. and after tt i might end up sleeping late, then waking up late, then not being able to queue, then have to struggle for seats, etc etc..
._.
sounds exaggerative but its simply a chained cause-effect theory. i dunno how u can relate to the chaos theory but it doesnt matter..lol. sounds random but tts e point. u shldve thinked twice about coming to visit a randomer's blog ^.O
since its a random post imma talk about something random, which has been on my mind for months! :o i dont know if uve ever heard this phrase, it might even be a revelation to some of you o_O.
"Never say no to a blessing."
yes, never say no to a blessing. never! if someone insists, i dont see why you should reject it. to say no to a blessing simply means to reject the person of having the right to show kindness to you, saying no to a blessing is like saying no to someone's love, in other words, depriving the person of the intention to express love/gratitude.
if someone offers you something, if u feel bad accepting it and u say no, AND..the person is okay with it..thats fine.
but if he/she insists, then DONT ever say no. why u might say. lets say you prepare a nice card, a good gift, spend some money, do some 'research' on a person you love, and on his/her birthday/special day, you decide to give this gift to the person. imagine the person saying, "its ok, i dont need it", how would you feel?
by e way, i didnt learn this from someone wise or what..i learned it from a 13-14 year old kid!!! i was playing for a makeup celgrp and so happened i took the same bus as this bunch of sec sch girls after cg..to go for svc. she offered me a sweet and i said, its ok, no thanks.
then she said those words, and said it as if i offended her. i immediately felt so convicted. she was like: "how can you say no!?! werent you taught not to say no to a blessing?!?" after awhile it seemed she was teasing me, but then again..i felt God speaking to me like that..just through a young girl with the intention to tease. thats how amazing God is.
you think its easy to pick up the boldness to say to someone, 'have this', 'can i get you this/that', etc.? you think its easy to come to a point, worked so hard, live a selfless life so that someone else can benefit. and just by you saying no, you've just told the person. your boldness is in vain, all your hard work, is in vain.
take another example. the greatest blessing, cost someone His ultimate sacrifice, and not an easy sacrifice also. saying no, to the one who created you, saying no, to the one who died for you, saying no to the one who can make your life complete. saying no, to God.
dont have to reason in your head, im not talking about theology here, im talkin common sense. if u dont even have the common sense to respect someone's act of love, then i have no idea if ull ever truly love someone.
love is not something you can reason, a selfless act is not someone thing you can reason, its either you accept it or reject it. even if a stranger risked his life to save me and i heard about it through a friend or relative, i would still go to him and thank him/her and accept the person's selfless, sacrificial love.
you call this religion? you call this theology? you call this philosophy? NO! this is common sense! the act of GRATITUDE and RESPECT is something you SHOULD ALREADY HAVE AT SOMEONE YOUR AGE!!! unless of course, you are immature, then thats something else!
saying thank you is something so BASIC! saying thank you to a stranger is even more basic! dont tell me you lack BASIC COURTESY? such that when a bus driver stops for you, you are the last to enter the bus and you dont even say a thank you?
even when the cleaners at hawker centers clean the table for you..do you thank the person? you know how hard it is for someone who's 'looked down' upon, to be able to be a servant of all??? again, COMMON SENSE!!!! if your common sense is lacking i suggest you check yourself, really..a person with a seared conscience will make wrong judgements. u treat everything good as evil, everything evil as good.
thats why people end up with the wrong people. they just cant seem to find the 'right person' because they themselves are not right in the first place! sorry to offend you but that's the way life is..right produces right, wrong produces wrong. and dont even for a second think that life will change over time, time will tell, time will heal..
TIME DOES NOTHING FOR YOU EXCEPT TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO START ACTING!!!
your life will only change when your thinking changes. if you think you can live life on your own? fine. for me, i definitely need God in my life. and of course various people in my life as well. see your friends and you see your future. wanna know how ull be few years down the road? well, look at those you hang out with. u hang out with a loser? ull eventually become a loser. u hang out with the smart, youll become smart, etc.
you dont have to be a fool to say ure a fool, just hang around one and youll become one!
stop letting your circumstances dictate your decisions! do you have any idea WHO you are? do you have any idea how precious and how valued you are? it all boils down to your own sense of security and self esteem. if you know your true value and the authority and power God has given to His children, THEN..stop being sitting ducks to life's circumstances!
start taking action! renew your mind and the only way to overcome your giants is to be a giant yourself! stop looking down on yourself, having a pity-party about your life, come on!!! stand up and fight! are you gonna let life laugh at you for your entire lifetime???
what do you do when you fall down? remain on the floor and cry: Oh dear..i fell down. ahh, my legs must be failing me..ahh..i think im losing my sense of balance. ONLY A KID DOES THAT FOR GOODNESS SAKE! when adults fall, what they do? they immediately get up!!! its INSTINCT my friends!
(my friends??? i sound like a preacher/lecturer now..haha)
its like a fully armed knight..with the helm, breastplate, shoes, belt. sitting on the floor and saying oh no..i have lost..when in actual fact the sword and shield is just less than a metre away. thats why its important to know who you are, your value in God and the things He have entrusted to you!
okay, how did i get this 'revelation'? its not a revelation lol..okay it is..to some extent. simply put, its common grace speaking to me through the Bleach anime series. hahaha..God is good :D
okay, ive lost my train of thought..lol..will blog again tonite ^.^
