Quiet Time 6 April 2012

Search the book of the LORD...
(Isaiah 34:16 NLT)

Excerpt of devotion:

"A knowledge of the Bible is essential to a rich and meaningful life. For the words of this Book have a way of filling in the missing pieces, of bridging the gaps, of turning the tarnished colours of our life to jewel-like brilliance. Learn to take your every problem to the Bible."

The idea of my life being filled with heavenly brilliance sounds really cool. Imagine that, my life is powered by a consistently rock-hard conviction of the cross and I'm living a life which is purposeful and fulfilling!

Well the truth is, my life now is not consistent, doesn't have any rock-hard conviction, not purposeful and not fulfilling. So.. I gotta start being consistent in reading the Bible first?

A thought just came to me.. If I'm carrying the big heavy Korean textbook to work everyday to revise, why aren't I carrying the Bible too?

Haha it didn't hit me until now! Pengz.

Becos I don't rely on the Bible as much, my life has been inconsistent. I dont take my Every problem to the Bible cos i am not familiar with the Bible in the first place, so I dunno where to look.

I'm real glad that this Quiet Time sessions have been happening for the past... 2 weeks! Not daily, but at least alternate days! It's a start nevertheless, even though doing it at night isn't very productive. Like now, my eyes are closing already and I haven even prayed yet.

My LG had a fellowship earlier today and we had much fun with games and makan. Really, its jus very nice to chat with people whom I've known for years. So comfortable and relaxing.

But, now I'm left with Sat and Sun, then it's back to work!! Sad.
