Quiet Moments... for not so quiet life

How do you describe about living in Singapore?

I cannot read your mind and write your thought below, but one thing for sure, the life in Singapore will never be a quiet one.

There are always things to do, people to meet, backlogs to clear, deadlines to meet, and the list goes on. Those things are always on our mind, and keep us running from sunrise to sunset.

Do we ever have time to pause and ponder upon what we are doing? Or, is the to do list the first thing on our mind, the moment we wake up in the morning? Do we take time to reflect on what happened on the day before we close our eyes and rest for the day?

Today is a wonderful day that God has given to me and my gf. I just bought a new devotional book for couple and we went through the first devotional together. It was talking about quiet time as a couple. In the midst of the busyness of our daily walks, do we find time to be still and listen to God? the answer is, rarely.

We were both ashamed and yet glad that God has reminded us. No matter how busy we are, we should always put God as the first priority.

And so, we decided to always spend a few minutes in the morning, to stay focus that the day is a God-given day, and give thanks to God. We will have our quiet times regularly. At night, we will reflect on what happened and give thanks for all the blessings and lessons learned. We will put all this in a journal, for it is no good just to put this on our mind.

If you are reading this, I encourage you to use the next few moments to pause and just be still before our God. He is waiting for you to draw near. Are you ready to quieten down and listen to Him?
