When I was reading Matthew 19:13-15, it states this "Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked those who brought them. Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there."
I am reminded that Jesus wanted little children to come because He loves them and because they have the kind of attitude needed to approach God. A trusting attitude. Jesus did not mean that heaven in only for children, but that people need childlike attitudes of trust in God.
More I am reminded that I need to trust God in whatever I do. Especially in terms of relationship, marriage or single life, feelings for a particular person, my desire for my own flat to call home. Whether migrating to Australia is the way for me to go or to stay in Singapore to fulfill His work with the little children here in BKC.
Many of these things have some to my mind lately and I have left my heart unguarded by my thoughts and feelings and I know that it is not the direction that the Lord wants me to go. I know that even though I wait for this person, I know that I need to carry on with His work and do what He wants me to do. He has given me gifts that I should use for the extension of His Kingdom. So what am I waiting for?
It is time to get cracking and moving and not just waiting. Waiting will get me no where!!! Now I can only say to trust that the Lord knows what is best for His child. He knows who is best for me and who will make a difference in my life to be able to guide me in times when I am down and troubled or when I am going through struggles and trials. Only God knows. I don't know. I don't have the answer. So Lord show me is all that I ask.
