Respond ... not react

Gosh ... just realized I have not updated my blog for almost a month or so =P

Was at staff devotion today and PIC shared from Psalm 63, reminding us about how David trusted the Lord even when he was in the toughest / difficult moments in his life. Those of us who know the story of David well will know that his life lies beyond his defeat of Goliath ... to how he patiently waited for the Lord to lead him to the throne that he was anointed to take over ... to how he defeated his enemies and secure the peace during his kingship, etc. Not too sure if many of us read beyond all these accounts into how he was persecuted by his own son who plotted to usurp the throne, the pain he has to bore about losing his son to vengeful schemes within his own family, etc. In any case, David trusted the Lord wholeheartedly throughout all these times.

PIC used Psalm 63 to remind us that to emulate the example of David - who RESPOND, instead of reacting when problems surfaced. It is indeed our natural tendency to react whenever problems surfaced, things happen, when we find that we are just over the neck, etc. But the man after God's very own heart indeed show us a good example of how we ought to handle and manage life.

The devotion also ended with a challenge for us to "expect signs and wonders", but don't sigh and wonder (or wander).

I'm reminded and challenged indeed. How about you? =)
