Early Tuesday Morning

8.20am now.
in school
waiting for class to start.

I think having patience and showing grace to others are missing from my life.
Its not even 3 hours since i woke up.
And i had already done things that reflects on me.

745am. Sheryl alighted me at SP bus stop.
i waited at the busstop.
bus 74 came, and went.
not stopping for passengers even though the bus was not crowded and there were others at the bus stop wanting to get on the bus too.
got quite fustrated (not a good way to start the day)
in my head, i was somehow scolding the bus driver.
(an act of not showing grace)

waited for the next 74 bus....
took ages.
the more i waited, the more fustrated i got.
loosing my patience, and blaming the previous driver for not stopping.

to my horror, the next 74 bus was those older kind of bus with NO AIRCON!!!
i could have blown up.

.................................

skip the bus. next topic.
reached school.
walked through SIM reach nursing block.
waited for lift.
people started walking there too.
lift door opened. people rushed in.
i think they shoud have a Q-up line for lifts.

reached level 3.
another group of student, walking in 1 straight line.
HOW AM I SURPOSE TO WALK PASS!!!!
plus all the previous experiences this morning.
I could have burst.

.................................

God, please help me show grace to others, the way You have been showing it to me.
help me have patience, even to those i don't know.
help me be a blessing to my friends, to be an encourager and a role model.
Help me bring joy to those surrounding me.
Amen.

........pray.....praise........listen.......worship.......breathe in ..... breathe out.....

restart the day again.
right now, 840am.
Start it with a word of blessing to everyone!!!

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains quake at its swelling pride. Selah. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold.
Psalm 46:1-3,7
