Spill the Tea

It's a farewell that aches,
memories that breaks,

As your chapter ends,
When pages could no longer be flipped,
What left me is the past pages we've made.

Day 19

'Endure'

The stronger the tree, deeper roots it's get, same as to our maturity, growing means deeper struggles that would eventually shapes our values.

Romans 5:3-4 Not only that, but we also boast[f] in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope. 5 Now this hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Prompts to reflect

With the year ending in just 2 days, what were the highlights and low points of your year, and what lesson would you like to carry over into the next year?

Serve the Lord while you're young, because as you get older, you'll have more troubles and responsibilities.

Blessed am I, for I knew God at a young age, and I will serve Him as much as my strength allows. I couldn't help sharing our conversation with my Bible study leader, who was going through challenges with her loved ones. She was weary and tired, sharing her troubles with me and saying, 'Blessed are you, Lang, privileged to have known God at such a young age. If you were older, you'd have more responsibilities and troubles.' I felt blessed conversing with her, as it uplifted my soul to serve the Lord, not by force, but out of gratitude. I'm grateful that Jesus came to save me, blotting out my sin by dying on the cross for me, saving me from judgment. and knowing that his grace is always available to keep me away from sinning.
