if only ...



if only the weekend is longer....

if only I do not have such high expectations of myself at work.....

if only I am more willing to let go.....

if only I am more trusting.....

if only I lower my expectations of others....

if only my heart will not grow cold and weary....

if only the world is still a beautiful and kind place.....

if only the ground we are toiling on is not hard ground.....

if only I can still sing the songs I want to sing.....

if only I can feel someone is really listening.....

if only I can be sure he is here.....

if only I can be strong no matter what tidal wave hits me relentlessly and continuously.....

if only I have a little space to be myself.....

if only I can rest....

sometimes, I wish I am HOME

no more pain....

no more sorrow.....

no more trials....

no more tears.....

how long more can I be strong ?

I am, at the end of the day, still a woman.

Oh yes, woman is made to have the inner strength that her stronger half may not possess.

Does this matter?

another week is dawning and I am so not looking forward.

I am reminded about Hagar's experience (Gen21:14-21)and want to encourage you with the promise that the God of Abraham is still the same God today - He hears and sees you. Take care.
