This is a Woman's Blog

Welcome to a blog whose blogger is sometimes complicated and manic but sometimes sober & sane. Sometimes, she's courageous enough to share and expose her vulnerabilities.. but most of the time, she avails of facades to speak what her heart wants to shout out loud without actually saying it. If you like reading between the lines, you've come to the right place. But...

People are strange: they are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.

Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings that puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly inside.

Intimacy is not who you let touch you. Intimacy is who you text at 3am about your dreams and fears. Intimacy is giving someone your attention, when ten other people are asking for it. Intimacy is the person always in the back of your mind, no matter how distracted you are.

Procrastination — putting off till later what we ought to do now — is so easy to justify. We think, One day I’m going to do that, so I’m not really being disobedient. We say, “Someday, I’m going to get serious about my relationship with God, but not right now.” Or, “One day, I’m going to get back in shape.” “One day I’m going to get my finances in order.” Or, “Sometime soon, I’m going to forgive that person that hurt me.” Unfortunately, for many people, one day never comes.

I’ve discovered that if the enemy can’t get us to be disobedient, his next plan of attack is to deceive us into putting off what we know we should do. “God, I’m planning to do it, just not right now.” “I’m planning to tithe ‘to give ten percent of my income to the church’ as soon as my finances get better.” “I’m planning to serve in the children’s ministry as soon as the work schedule slows down at my office.”

We’re saying, “I have good intentions; I’m planning to be obedient, so that’s not so bad.” But good intentions don’t equal obedience. And really, delayed obedience is disobedience. When God speaks to your heart about changing your attitude, or apologizing to that loved one, or treating somebody better, yet you keep putting it off, that will destroy your joy and keep you from God’s best.

"He tells Tim to live each day twice in order to be truly happy: the first time, live it as normal, experiencing each day's inherent unpredictability and stress, and the second time to appreciate its small joys and special moments without making any changes to the events that occurred (and avoiding changing any future events)."

In general, highly sensitive people tend: 1. To be more sensitive to sights, smells, sounds, tastes and smells 2. To be philosophical and more in touch with their spirituality 3. To feel highly uncomfortable when being observed (e.g. by a teacher, a boss, during...

Always expecting this and expecting that. May I recommend serenity to you? A life that is burdened with expectations is a heavy life. Its fruit is sorrow and disappointment. Learn to be one with the joy of the moment.

There’s More to Waiting on God Than Just ‘Waiting’

5 reasons waiting should be active, not passive.

No one likes waiting for anything. But, maybe, just maybe, in this waiting season, God wants to spend time with you, to enjoy being with you.

So, while it’s not always a good idea to sit on your hands “waiting on the Lord,” the waiting may just be God’s way of getting your attention and, you know, forcing you to take a break and just hang out with Him for a little while.

Almost all of our brokenness can be tracked back to the quantity and quality of the love we have experienced.
