For the past week, I have been fighting off different kind of viruses and bacteria my body had accumulated. Change weather really doesn’t suits me. I have sniffles, hard cough, slight to medium head ache and a slight fever at night. This virus really stricken me a lot. I spent a long week vacation at home nursing myself. Not been able to attend church activities and meetings just to avoid spreading virus. Yet I still managed to go to work. Even though how embarrassing my cough is. I don’t have any choice but to let it out. Yes I know I was supposed to stay at home and take rest, I should think of my health first before anything or anyone . But sometimes I can't help but to think the other way around. We often times think of others sake first before our own. And sometimes it hurts us if those people doesn't appreciate our effort, especially our bosses, our earthly master. Even if you give all your best to them, still they wanting more from you. Your best is not the best for them. In the end of the day still your productivity and the outcome of your work still matters. You have to do everything and anything to satisfy them. To prove them that you are worthy of your position and salary they are paying you. We may have this kind of earthy master in our life now but still am glad that my heavenly master is far more different from them. He cares for me a lot. He loves me. He is concern about me. He even treat me as a friend and not as a filthy and low servant. And what is more special is that I am His son co -heir of His kingdom. He is my king and I am His princess. He loves me so much even to the point of letting His son died on the cross to redeemed me from the slavery of sin. What more can I ask for? I have found a great treasure, far more valuable than gold and silver.
We may get tired and oftentimes get discouraged on the way our earthly master treated us. Sometime we like to give up, packed our things and go back home. Sometimes we utter bad words behind their back. We want to curse them and desire bad things for them. But what stopping us from doing those things is the excitement and joy it brings knowing our heaven master loves us. There is ONE powerful being that can change simple things into something extra ordinary.
Don’t lose heart…everything will be fine.
