The Way Prayer Works
After the previous post last night, my mind was swirling with alot of thoughts. It was well over 12 midnight *obviously* and I wanted to get as much sleep as possible. But the mind just couldn't stop the thinking and the planning.
So I sat up and decided to tell the Big Guy about my scheming thoughts. As I relate to Him my plans, the motive behind my plan began to show up. I was reminded of what I've always believe in and held on to, and that it contradicts what I intend to do. Then I told Him that I don't want to plan and scheme anymore, just want to hand it all over to Him and let Him deal with it for me. I really don't want to go ahead with what I think is right, only to look like a fool to others when executing it. You'll never know what you think may not sit well with what others think.
I realised that I shouldn't run ahead of His plan and go ahead and do what I deem right. At this point in time, only He can move those mountains to path the way for me. If I really do trust Him, I shouldn't just tell Him that I want Him to work, and on the other hand, get busy preparing everything so that eventually, the thing will work.
Decided to tell Him to perform His miracle and wonder, if eventually, what I want is what He wants for me as well. My faith has to be placed on Him if I trust him to work what only He can do.
It was good. After the conversation with Him, I fell right into a deep sleep and woke up today feeling free of the swirling thoughts. I don't have to wonder and guess what will happen if I do, or if I do not. I have handed that over to my Big Guy.
I have the peace and assurance that He will work out the things for me.

Something to add about last night.
Yesterday, I watched the memoirs of S.Rajaram.
- If he is such a great man as most claimed, why don't they do memoirs about him when he is alive and out of politics, and only say good things about him when he has passed on?
- Gee, there were so many people listening to him, shaking hands with him from the 30s to the 80s. Where have all these English Speaking people gone to? Are they still around?
- Don't know much about him in person, I think I will like to be around this man if I was given a chance. He seemed to be the kind of respectable adult I would like to hang out with from what I watched.
There.
