Temperature rose above 20 degrees yesterday afternoon and I decided to go out for a run.  Haven’t ran for weeks, a bit out of shape, I stopped running after 3k.  Thought about giving up and head home, but it was still early, so I found a place to sit, rest, and watch some youngsters play soccer.  After resting for about 1o minutes, I decided to try running again.  Amazingly, I was able to finish the rest of the 10k run without stopping.

Life is like that sometimes, you spend all your energy striving aimlessly, but without a goal or purpose, you would easily give up.  A little rest and a little time to clear your mind may be all that’s needed to recuperate and finish the race.

Now seems to be the right time in life for me to rest and to take a little breather, to think and reflect upon my past while planning for the future.  This is one of the bible verse that kept popping up in my head these days – “For we’re God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”  (Ephesian 2:10)

What’s God’s purpose in me?
