Time Is Very Precious

Last night, I did a lot of thinking after I dropped off my sweetie to the airport. His job requires him to travel now and then. This time he is leaving to Las Vegas, NV for 10 days. I was trying to be a caring fiancée by holding back my tears of sadness because he hates when I am in that particular mood when he leaves. Oh, I did baked him some cookies and made an Asian bag to put them in. I gave him 10 cookies and when you have a bad time at work each day, eat 1 cookie and think of me. That idea was blow out of the door when I gave it to him yesterday. He ate most of the cookies -_- . Anyways, I keep telling myself it’s a mini vacation of doing anything I want “by myself.” I done it before and for some reason, it had a good time doing things on my own, you know. Well, the point is I now had a lot of time on my hands.

When I went home, I said, "what should I do now?" Soon enough, I called my little sister and watched a couple of Asian shows. In fact, we watched "Fruit Baskets" online together. Good times, good times. Oh man, I watched my reality Korean Show called, “We Just Married.” It’s hilarious to watch couples even if it’s artificial couples trying to get along. There are so many people, different people, which lack communication and understanding of one another. Believe me, when I moved in with my sweetie, it was the toughest weeks of our lives. We had to adjust our behavior and our habits to get along but eventually, we realized it’s mostly a change of heart to make each other happy. It took us awhile to get closer and love each other as one.

I think that’s how it goes getting to know God. My Sis and Bro are pretty much in the level of wisdom of knowing to communicate and understand God’s ways of life. I used to read the Bible everyday and then, I stopped. I don’t know why I did. I was back to square one. I had these thoughts of why do have plenty of time to watch TV and movies, go update myspace page, or go shopping? I have time for the Bible. Then, I had excuses such as I am tired, I don’t do a whole of things for God, and so why do it? Or if I read the Bible alone, I am scared I wouldn’t understand what I am reading about and I would just give up. I was sick of the excuses. I need to communicate to God and apply the wisdom in me and share it to people.

I opened up my Bible and I wrote down on the 1^st page of notes and it hit me hard.

Satan’s Plan

1. Doubt: makes you question God’s word & his goodness
2. Discouragement: makes you look at your problems rather than at God
3. Diversion: makes the wrong things seem attractive so you want them more than the right things
4. Defeat: makes you feel like a failure, so you don’t even try
5. Delay: makes you put off doing something, so if never gets done.

I read my Bible.

I will continue to do so. I have time.
