When the going gets tough

Everybody's scurrying around, looking flustered as they pull their hair to think of ideas, rushing through the paces of life to get things done. What a sight to behold at the end of the semester.

I'm in pretty much the same situation as everyone else. I have been finding it hard to rest like I did last semester. I know that I have to rest, but can I afford to? Papers to submit, responses to share, things to keep in check. It is easy to lose sight of God and the cross during such busy times. It becomes ever so convenient to sideline Jesus.

Good Friday–some say that it is more than just a holiday. But we do not need a special day to remind ourselves what Christ has done. It should always be fresh in our mind the scene of our Saviour on the cross. He did not die for us so that we may sideline him. Christ should rule in our hearts, but I know that it is hard to submit. It is my plea to God that I can be a humble servant of the Lord Jesus Christ.

As a student, working adult, stay-home mum, retiree, whatever your status, it is ever so important to put Christ first in our lives. One Lord, one Saviour, one resurrection. Only Jesus, nothing more, or less.
