Each morning I try to have my moment of silent. A moment which I use to read the Holy Bible, try to understand what God wants me to do today, and offering my morning prayer. I use this book titled "Our Daily Bread" to help me understand the Bible.
Well, yesterday topic is about surrender. After I read the Scripture passage and try to understand its meaning, I come to find this quote: Surrender becomes victory when we yield to God. In times of trial, it's not easy for us to trust our God. When I'm on trial, I try to run away. I try to ask "WHY".
According to my reading, each struggle we have means God want to make us better. God want us to do something. There's a lesson in each trial. Be willing to sacrifice your agenda for His greater purpose. Surrender to Him and you will find comfort.
"Lord take my life and make it wholly Thine; fill my poor heart with Thy great love divine; take all my will, my passion, self and pride; I now surrender, Lord - in me abide"

The Mask
One day in a seminar the speaker asked, “How long do your wear your mask?” I was shocked to hear that question. He said that everyone has their own mask. Either we realize it or not, sometimes we wear our mask. The mask shows a different personality, a different side of you, to be someone who you want to be and someone who everyone loves. Don’t you hate to wear your mask but sometimes we wear it… just to make someone happy or to cover up our inability.
Do you know how tired to wear those masks? Do you have any idea how heavy it was? Someone says, “When you started to lie, you will end up with another bigger lies! Can you cope with it?” It’s true… it started a little lie and you have to lie all the time. The hardest part was to remember each character we played and to whom we played it to.
Let’s try to take off the mask, to bring the truth to everyone. It’s hard but worth to try. Do it one step at a time, because we don’t want to hurt anyone although we already did. The lessons are just be you, be honest and love yourself.
“Just be yourself, because you are special!”

Look Ahead!
"It's better to look ahead & prepare than to look back & despair!"
Let's begin this August with those spirit. Try not to look back yet start to look ahead. Plan your future, think your action and do your best. Don't forget to leave the rest to God!
Life ends when you stop dreaming;
Hope ends when you stop believing;
Love ends when you stop caring.
