A Tiring Day Supposedly, But Resisted By A Dose of Ginseng

Nakakapagod itong araw na ito... fulfilling din. Although I failed to have a quiet time this morning, Marami pa ring realizations na dumating sa akin: Unang-una hwag maging sobrang panicky. Nangyari sa akin kanina ito... Mula sa pagpreprepare para sa isang departmental exam sa Biochem 131. Ineexpect ko na gagawa kami ng mga Cleland Diagrams ng ilang mga reactions sa iba't-ibang reaction pathways. 'Yun pala pinasagot lang pala sa amin mga simple mechanisms, given reactants & products na. Nasayang tuloy yung mga oras na dapat ini-spend ko for a total conversation with Him. But even though sometimes we stray away, He's always there for us... waiting for us to come back to Him. I'm so glad nakashare ako ng ilang Relient K songs (naka-impluensiya ako he he) & what's good about it is some of the songs speak about the realities that some of us encounter when we walk in the faith. One of them is mentioned in a song by them called "I So Hate Consequences". It speaks about the absurdity of running away from the mistakes that we've done, because we're still afraid to face the consequences. It also speaks about yung infinity pa rin ng love Niya sa atin, even though we've fallen into a pit, so long as we go back to Him & repent & make Him the captain of our lives. In short, even though palagi tayong nagkakamali willing pa rin naman Siyang magpatawad. Bibigyan nga lang tayo ng punishments, to learn from our mistakes, because His love for us is too much, we're even more worthy than a thousand sparrows. Kung baga sa isang magulang, gusto Niya yung best para sa ating lahat, 'di ba? Because we are His children, His creation. & we are created not just to satisfy ourselves with the ultimate delights of this world, but only just to glorify Him. We Exist only for Him. Naalala ko tuloy yung isang kanta na naging my LSS sa Against The Flow sa NU -- It's "Even When" by Seven Places. The chorus goes like this -- "Even when my eyes are dry, even when my soul is tired even when my hands are heavy, I will lift them up to You It's not about how I feel, oh Lord I am here for You. I exist for you." OK yun lang muna... The Northern Wolf is signing-off...
