Matthew 17:20. He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
I've been feeling more broken than complete lately. Is this what my clients feel like? Little things would trigger tears. Even the question of how are you can bring an emotional tide.
To really rejoice in this state of "down-ness" is difficult. But as a psychologist, this is really a precious time for me to truly experience the lows. And let God really make me, me.

What if we lost everything. How would we respond? Can we worship, while we are in pain?
I want to be able to bring worship to the lord especially during these times of pain. It's a new low each time. Ever layer of my pride being slowly stripped away. This year, in it's 2 months, has already been such a trial for me. Having to sell off my possessions, having to skip meals because I didn't have money to put food on the table, having to accept that things won't be done according to my timing, being chased for deadlines, having people desert and disappoint me. It's been tough. There has been tears. But I know God is using these difficult experiences to really peel the old me away.

This song is really speaking to my heart. Many know that I'm really struggling at the moment. Things are so tight, that I think I'm going to break. But I really never knew that anything could be this hard.

如果我們從來沒有遇見
What if you and I never met 如果那一天你沒多看我一眼
If on that day, you never gave me a second glance 我就不會陷進甜苦之間
Then I wouldn't be stuck between bitterness and sweetness 還擔心賞味期限
And be worried about a date of expiry. 如果 我的用心 你從沒有發現
What if you never discovered my lustful intentions 如果這樣我是否該說再見 Then should I say goodbye? 倒數到一起還有幾天 Counting down to the days we have together 感覺幸福就差一點
Almost having the feeling of happiness. 只能想像一起
I can only image "us" 但我沒勇氣
but I don't have the courage 所以很想討厭你
So I wanted to hate you 愛怎沒有限期
Why doesn't love have an expiry. 如你說曾經在意 If you said you did once care 會讓我後悔太過壓抑
it would make me even more regretful 只能幻想甜蜜
I can only imagine the sweet fantasy 我不能自己
I won't let myself 讓我好好討厭你
really hate you 沒有你的空氣
without you in the air 我要怎麼呼吸
how can I breathe? 享受我們之間幸福距離
Enjoying a happy distance between use 心動的回憶
Heart moving memories
聽說愛情從來不需抱歉
I heard that love was without regrets 聽說某一天我們會互相發現
I heard that one day we would find each other. 只想停留在你的視線 I just want to stay in your line of sight. 還慢慢走到終點
And slowly advance to the end
I was provided a review copy of this book. A girl's guide to undersanding boys will be released 1 March 2014.
I was excited reviewing this book. Both from an adults perspective, and being a girl once. Boys too are God's creation. But we are slightly different- we talk differently, our brains are wired differently, process emotions differently. Secret keeper girls are different from normal girls. We weren't made to go Boy-Crazy or to hate their guts. The book was written in a conversational style, as if an older sister was transpiring wisdom to their little sister.
Key topics addressed include:
- DATING
- Helping boy-crazy friends
- What should I do while I'm waiting to date?
- What the bible says about guys (structured bible study with fun little activities for girls)
There is some wisdom in the book that I wish I had known about when I was just a girl. I had misconceptions of what Dating is, and the purpose of Dating.
And after some life experiences, I understand that today I will only date intentionally. And when my Sunday school girls ask if I date, if girls I see in the clinic ask me about dating, I no longer have a distorted worldly view of what it's meant to be. If dating success is determined by 2 options- deciding the other person is the one for marriage, or the person isn't, then breaking up with someone WILL NEVER END IN FAILURE. And though this can hurt at the time, can you see how this will dramatically change how boys/girls cope with relationship breakup?
If you aren't ready for marriage, dating will just cause many a heartbreak and frustration.
