my footprints

While we often don't like work,
it really is a gift from God.
When He created this world,
He did not make it
with trees and bushes
filled with bread,
or money,
or refrigerators filled with meals
ready to eat.

Instead,
He provided a world
of rich and wonderful resources,
and He gave humans the ability,
just like their Creator,
to make things.
We can imagine,
we can solve problems,
we can use
our minds and the strength
of our labour
to take raw materials
and fashion them
into useful things.

We can easily
idolize material things,
but at their root,
they are nothing
but reflections of
the very essense of God
as Creator.

we all know
that at different points of time
we face various trying periods.
hang in there and don't lose hope
because what we do,
will determine
our future, our destiny.
know that you're not alone,
facing this difficult moment.
so stand up for something.
or you will fall
when you stand up for nothing.

hence,
believe and claim
that the Lord your God,
will bring you hope.

and He will grant you
the desires of your heart.

"The Lord is faithful
in all He says;
He is gracious
in all He does.
The Lord helps the fallen
and lifts up those
bent beneath their loads.
All eyes look to You for help;
you give them their food
as they need it.
When You open Your hand,
You satisfy
the hunger and thirst
of every living thing."
Psalms 145:13-16
