We are often tempted to worry. We worry about what will happen next. We gloat on things to come, even if usually, what we worry about doesn't happen.
God himself told us not to stress ourselves. And here we are thinking about all the possible negativities which we try to foretell as if we have absolute knowledge to what will happen in the next few seconds. We don't. Yet, the one who has already written the end and the beginning, told us, "Do not worry."
God would tarry to test us. He tells us to "wait patiently." Stand still and not move a finger. It's His work not ours. Until we learn and understand what Resting in His love truly means, we will live each day worrying about everything.
I don't want to worry anymore.
He says, "I care." God knows what we need and what we want. He sees all these things.
He says, "Wait." I'll handle it. If it comes and happens, He wanted it to happen. If it doesn't, He doesn't want it to happen. He has greater plans. More beautiful that what we are expecting. Far beyond was is reasonable for us. Exceedingly great and unfathomable.
So, to guys like me... God says "Wait and Rest." Just this once, try not to lift a finger and let God be God. See what happens.

One Day Film for Lovers and Friends
One Day is one eye opener.
One Day is for lovers and friends.
Friends. They say it is impossible for a man and a woman to just be friends. As a lady, I believe it is but to just a certain degree. Keeping an arm's length still is valuable advice. A matter of self preservation or precaution, not to hurt the other and to protect your heart.
Scared. At some point, Dex and Ems were frigthened who should go first. Again, I stand by what the best-selling author Elisabeth Elliot says about letting the man inititate. But some men do admit that at times, they get tongue-tied. As for me, if you love someone, you will declare it. Plain and simple. If one can not utter the words, perhaps he just doesn't love her that much.
The Risk. The risk for Dex and Em was letting a decade pass through their eyes. Wasted? Maybe. When Dex finally gathered enough sensibility to realize he does love her, and has always, what he didn't realize was their time is running out.
Epiphany. Love, cliche as it is, is a roller-coaster ride. But at the end, when two hearts are meant to be one, the pre-destined purpose of their existence still prevails in the end. The journey was exhausting, long and profoundly full of mishaps and bliss, but it was worth the wait. It ended painfully beautiful. A story worth-telling others, that when you love... love and embrace it now. You'll never know until when you can hold it close to your heart. You'll never know when it will drift away. You'll never know when it will be taken from you.

The Art of Forgetting
I seldom say I miss you. I rarely say the words I love you. One thing I know, eventhough forgetting is difficult and a bit challenging it's worth the pain and suffering in the long-run.
We have those keepsakes engraved deep in our hearts. Memories which painted different shades of sadness and bliss in the history of our lives. But one thing I believe in, everything is pre-ordained. Where we are right now, is where we should be. We go through different testswhich become our testimony. The mess we made becomes our message. Our pain becomes our praise.
God is great. He will not give us beyond what we can carry. The load is just right for our capacity to endure. He tests us, so and we will come out stronger and ready to strengthen others.
I just want to thank the Lord for the strength.
He empowers us to forget. He makes things new every morning.
