in moments like this
Like what I shared in my previous posting about the week, I was dead tired by the time it was dusk.Fridays are always family meal time together. It is only on Fridays, that Zoe and Zane get to eat together with Daddy. That will mean, Josh will leave office on the dot and try to make it home before 7pm. Usually, we will go to Garage and wait for Josh to finish work. This week's Garage treat for the children will be tomorrow afternoon, as I have to attend a course at RTRC.
I slept by 9pm? Can't remember, I only know it was pretty early. Both the children were still very alive then. But ... I just couldn't keep my eyes open. I slept... or maybe I should correct myself, I mean, I napped.
Was up since 11.30pm and couldn't get back to sleep.
Tried to do some work but the brain refused to work.
So, read the Word of God again. Read John. Simply love this book in the Bible. Thank You, Lord, for Your Word.
Will continue to read (while waiting for the laundry to be done, yes, laundry! What's new? This is one of my late night chores, if I am wide awake. It can be therapeutic at times. )
Love,
Jesselyn Ng

Zhen, I'm so glad your voice has been restored. Praise God!
Some nights, I'm so tired too that I'll nap and wake up in the middle of the night to continue my work. When all is done and everything seems still and quiet, it's usually the best time between God and me. Nobody else will be around to disturb that still quiet moment. : )
It is not the slumber spirit, I think, but rather, the teaching spirit.
You, me and Sabrina are all teachers to young children. And teaching is exhausting, esp. mentally. At the end of the day, I wish I can just plonk into bed, but my mind will be thinking of the work waiting for me.
Giving up teaching? That will mean giving up the teaching part of me.
