Psalm 62
This Wednesday, we met again on phone. We really cherished this moment.
CL led this QT with Psalm 62. It challenged her to look closedly into her heart. At times, she may complain to God for not listening to her prayers. In reading this Psalm, she was reminded once,.... 62:1 "My soul finds rest in God alone. " Twice, in 62:5, "Find rest, O my soul, in god alone..." . REST triggered her and a recall came to her, "Have I reserved enough time for God? Do I really take rest slone in God?" The recent mental or spiritual turmoil was more or less attributed to the fact that she was busy busy & busy with her career, her work and she seldom poured out her hearts to HIM. In reciprocal, she heard no response from God.
CL calls for a heart to 靜心等待. God's timing differs from us. Most of the time, I need to wait in patience and in silence.
IL's daughter missed her school bus this morning and it was the first summer time school day. That was why the school bus ran away once we were not there waiting this morning. On the way to MTR, I grumbled to my little girl and she was silent. Suddenly I thought that I must pray for a calm and loving heart. In a second, my mindset changed and the serenity returned to my heart. I said sorry to my girl and expressed my gratitude to have a golden chance to walk with her during the first school day in summer time table. We walked hand in hand and laughed and chatted. What a precious moment! So I spent over an hour to take her to-&-from school and came home shortly before our QT. My share is 62:8 "Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge." 感激的心
VL's husband suggested having a picnic with BBQ on 1 May (a public holiday). It was a sunny day which is perfect for outdoor activity. But her little girl's homework and study need deterred them from enjoying the family time outdoors. They had to stay home doing the revision as well as the household chores. In heart, VL felt sorry for her husband and this emotion entangled till the another day. In a minute, she drew the support from God and had a mindset change. She decided to pick up the positive attitude. Rest for God's answer with HOPE and a grateful heart. 62:5 "Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my HOPE comes from HIM." What a powerful and awesome refuge it is!
