150124 Thank you for my parents' love and care

I thought I would write a few sentences because I'm having a trouble sleeping. Plus, I have something that I'm thankful for tonight. 

After work, I met up with my friend from university. It was fun catching up with her because she was away for a year. The dinner was nice but we were unlucky finding a dessert place. We walked for a long time and finally decided to go to whatever was open. It was a small bubble tea place. Although we walked for half an hour, I was still full from the dinner. But if you know me, i am addicted to bubble tea... It's an ongoing problem since last year. Anyways, when we were almost done and getting ready to go, suddenly my body felt so cold and I felt nauseous. I felt a bit better after using the bathroom, but I wasn't completely better.

We got up to go and I slowly walked to the subway. I always worry about getting on the subway when I'm sick because I'm afraid of the train stopping for signal problems. Because of that fear, i got off a few stops after and decided to see if my dad was home. Thankfully he was, and he came to pick me up. It felt like forever because i was sick, but they came as soo as they can and I'm very thankful for that.

I'm still not completely better, im much better than before. I'm thankful for my loving parents. Hopefully I can fall asleep soon.

"But whose delight is in the law of the Lord 

and who meditates on his law day and night, 

that person is like a tree planted by streams of water, 

which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither - 

whatever they do prospers" 

Psalm 1:2-3

As I have shared yesterday, I am following my church's Bible reading plan for the year 2015. So today's chapters came from Genesis 1-2, and Psalm 1. I want to share something from the book of Psalms as I had a moment of awakening. 

I been having a difficult time reading the Bible lately. I haven't been really drawn to it, and definitely didn't "delight" in it. I had to force my self to get my devotion done… and it felt like a chore on my check-off list. It wasn't something I look forward to, rather, it's something that I'd push it off until the end of the day. So, when I read the verses from Psalm 1, it made me question myself. Do I delight in the law of the Lord? Do I meditate on his law day and night? If I haven't been doing a good job at it, how do I do it? 

God spoke to me through these verses and I'm thankful to have been reminded of this and how God desires for me to delight in His word. At the end of the year, I want to look back and see that I have delighted in God's word and have meditated on it every day. I believe that the reading plan will help me achieve this goal. I
