God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God's work from beginning to end.

Life is about changes and learning to enjoy the adventure of journeying in life with Him. I can't see what's ahead and have no way of controlling how things will go. I can only trust Him, that He makes all things beautiful in its time.

Source of joy or source of pain?

In life, there are often more than one way to look at a situation. Sometimes they are both sides of the same coin. At other times, we never know how a turn of event can change our view of things. I need to maintain a positive outlook; it will determine whether I see a full glass or an empty glass.


Getting a good spa treatment...source of joy;
Paying a huge bill for it...source of pain.

Having a friend who is patient... source of joy;
He is too laid back and never seem to be on time... source of pain.

A new relationship... source of joy;
Loss of freedom as a single... source of pain.


Having not enough money...source of pain;
Passing up on a bad bargain at a sale...source of joy.

Visit to the dentist...source of pain;
Removal of a toothache...source of joy!

Broke a heel and fell down...source of pain;
Saved by a handsome prince charming...source of joy!!
