Totally exhausted
Totally exhausted
I'm totally exhausted ... it's been a really long and tiring week - having to prepare for a presentation in the beginning of the week for one of the subject ... then having to complete all the readings for the 2 classes during the week which I'm attending, on top of touching up on the assignment that is due this week.
The week is far from over - a major national event (CCA) is coming up tomorrow and I'm leading worship for it - got to meet for practice in the morning and stay until probably early evening? Then after that got to rush down to the east end for a friend's wedding party. Sunday as usual would be grocery shopping day cum bathe dog, bathe cat, bathe car day =( Thank God this Sunday we are free to attend a church of our choice, otherwise another half a day "gone".
I dread to think about next week too - the piles of monthly Bible reading journals which the girls will be submitting to me on Monday. Marking 22 sets of 1 month's worth of Bible reading and rushing to return to them within a day or 2 so that they can continue to record their readings in the journals ...
Well, I'm not complaining - in fact, I'm more than happy to have so many of them choosing 4 months of Bible Reading project over ministry in church. And I have seen many of them writing very good and reflective thoughts as I marked their journals. It's just that the thought of having a pile of 22 journals to complete marking sounds ... scary!
In fact, I was so exhausted that throughout the CCA hour this afternoon, I just felt half my head splitting. Can't be help, not enough adult-student ratio, so can't leave early to rest =( The weather isn't helpful also - so super hot and super sticky ... grumble, grumble, grumble ...
As I think about my physical failure and limitations, I'm just so thankful that God is not like us human, who gets tired, who are constrained by limitations, etc. In fact, Psalm 121:1-4 echos the continuous watchful eye of the Lord, His constant help available, His unceasing strength which we can depend on "I lift up my eyes to the hills - where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip - he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep."
Aren't you thankful that God is not like human, who fail and get exhausted, or at times temperamental and moody?
I hope I'm still writing sense, not dollars, haha ...
