Yesterday , on our way home
from office , we noticed that
Mitsu's rear tire was flat. I immediately
bring the car to the petrol station to refill the air, as Im driving
I tried to recall what had caused
my flat tire. As much as possible I try
to avoid parking along the sandy area
or in kachara parking as to avoid sharp and pointed objects get into the tires. Sometimes bad things happened even
though how careful we are. And also sometimes these circumstances will some how teach
us some lessons that we will never forget.
As I reach the petrol station and finished refilling the air, the staff
there checked the tire and find nothing
that makes the tire deflated. It
was only this morning when we are about to go to work , we saw a bolt stacked
on the rubber that caused the deflation.
Then I remembered: God is so good, at all time.
He never allowed this to happen
during the Eid holiday, wherein we are in the road for almost every day during the week long holiday. What if we get deflated on our way to
Fujairah? Or when we are in the middle
of Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai?
Or when we are in nowhere looking for the shortest route going to Last Exit Food Truck Station? I am risking not only my life, but the life of
my friends as well.
But , then, God is always good.
He always protect. He never want His
children to get harm, to be in trouble. He is always in control of everything.
In our life, we often experience having a spiritual flat tire. Life's unexpected instances that
could be in the form of job challenges, relationship conflicts, financial
issues, death of loves ones and illnesses that flattens us and released whatever
energy left in us. It may be a disaster at first but in the end
it will redirect our lives in a meaningful way.
God will never leave us. He is
always good every time and in everything. All we need to do is to keep our faith in
Him. Just like a flat tire getting fixed
after, He will patched every small and big holes of our life and will refill us
with His Spirit, so that when we're back
on the road again, we are sure that our journey will be smooth and safe, no matter how bumpy and roughly the roads ahead of us. We will reach our destination safety and without blemish.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28
