SOT- Week 2: Sacrifice truly is in continuous tense

This week has been way, way more trying than last week.

The Devil loves to send my family members to hospital. Note plural form.

Aunt is still in ICU since Monday. Then Dad went emergency late last night, now he's at home. I'm skipping out on Mrs Cho's once in a lifetime meeting to stay at home and look after him. He can't leave his bed.

I skipped out on my friend's birthday celebration today.

I passed over a GOLDEN chance to work under a certain top Singaporean director as a production assistant on his latest movie, because I thought I wanted to go for Mrs Cho's meeting. Now, I see it's a good thing I didn't take up that job, because I need to stay home and look after my Dad. But it doesn't hurt any less, that my DREAM JOB just waved bye-bye and went away from me. It's like someone handed me a gift in my hands, and I just dropped it. I'm still in static shock over it.

My leader was disappointed I didn't take it up (as were a few others who I told), but then again, reasons for difficult decisions sometimes don't present themselves until later.

Sacrifice is truly in continuous tense.

As Bobby would say, "GOOD FOR YOU! :D" if you're going through trials and tribulations. There's overcoming to be done here. Breaking through.

When you think you've given it all, sacrificed your every last bit, something always seems to come along and stab you deeper in the flesh, beyond yourself. And even after that, Beyond beyond yourself.

I want to sing
Until I am lost in Your love
Till I'm found in Your presence
Worshipping before Your throne

Moved by Your Spirit
Entering into Your flow
How precious this moment
Lord I want You to know
