For me just laying down and not doing anything at home is such an unpleasant way to spent time…Unfortunately i have to experience that last week … For almost 2 weeks I cannot go to work, just have to lay down and literally incapable of doing anything because of some viruses attacking my stomach and weaken my body immune. At first i felt so miserably sad, the thought of my body had betrayed me, for being so weak, because in the past 6 month it’s like my 2nd time that i have to take rest for over one week.
But then I try to evaluate my self, listening to what my mom’s saying, my boss, my uncle and my dearly friends… Mostly they were saying that i ate too little, not enough nutrition ( am i malnutrition ?? hmmm), some of them also saying that I might have used my brain to think a little bit too much in other words i might in some stress level (•`~΄•) … I have to admit that I wasn’t really paid much attention to my health, I didn’t eat properly, lack of sports, no vitamin taken and somehow when i fasting i kind of pushing my self off the limit (eat nothing within 20hours, then breaking my fasting by eating super spicy indomie and sometimes that was all i ate until the next day)… I should have known it better that kind of attitude is unacceptable. Perhaps if Jesus can scold me He would have done it (^O^) , or He might said : ” Though i want you to learn to restrain yourself to resist the temptation through fasting, but i have never asked you to tortured yourself dummy girl (^O^) “. So through that illness i kind of learn my lesson, I do take it seriously when i almost have to be hospitalized, going back and forth to the doctor for couple of times within one week (⌣́_⌣̀) , I really do have to take a very good care of my body, not for my own sake, but I owe this to Him who has created me so adorably perfect as He is, As Apostle Paul ever said :
1 Cor 6:19 “Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God? You are not your own…”
I’m the kind of person who cannot take milk (except for Ultra milk chocolate flavor only), now i force my self to search for pure milk with no flavor that i can take, luckily I’ve found it (´⌣`), back to my Pilates routine, eat properly 3 times a day, taking vitamins, gain some more weight ┒(⌣˛⌣”)┎ (hopefully not too much).
One other things that I learn is that I am surrounded by LOVE , God has showed me that I am loved by my parent (in case i didn’t realize it earlier), my colleagues, my dearly sisters, they were all so concerned and care for my health… I’m wonderfully blessed and I wish I can be source of blessing for others too.
So being lay down and incapable of doing nothing for almost 2 weeks wasn’t that bad at all i guess, at least I can learn some lesson from it to improve my self, that if I really want to work for God’s purpose as His source of blessing for others first I have to start to take a very good care of my self.
We can feel God’s grace upon us not just when we are at our highest point of life but also in weakness. If any of you are in situation that is less favorable, don’t give up… Sometimes it is Ok for us just to lay back a little bit and take some rest from our hectic daily routine, maybe in this situation God want you to do some evaluation about yourself in order to fulfill the purpose He has planted in you, or He want to use your situation as a blessing for others so its not all about you, He has a so much greater plans for all of us and He can use any of us to complete it. For we all are just like a clay in The Potter’s hand… Have faith that He can turns all of your situation into a blessing for you or for others.
Rome 8 : 28 “We are assured and know that all things work together and are fitting into a plan for good to and for those who love God and are called according to His design and purpose.
Be Blessed
