Rainy

Today rains super long..since early morning till now! But it is shiok to have the coolness for the whole day and no need to even turn on the fan. A lazy afternoon, yet i was at orchard shopping. To make my trip worthwhile, i brought myself a good pillow and did not need to pay anything for it by redeeming my credit card points. Haha tonight this little head of mine will have a new pillow to rest on and the owner will also have better sleep :D

A small episode happened but a great lesson to learn.

Someone knocked at the door and i opened to see an elderly lady standing there. When she said she wanted to use the toilet, my instant human guard responded to her "who are you?" She claimed to be my neighbor, but i never saw her before.

Then she explained that she was locked out and could not get into the house. Suddenly something checked on me "Elaine you are too cautious! What can she do to you? Rob you? Be a lighthouse!" I knew it!

There are needs and needy people.

But due to our human instinct and guard, we turn them away.

If we could meet those needs, why not?

If God allows them to cross our path, he knows we can.

In fact, no effort is even required yet we can put a smile on someone's face and even on us.

I thank the Holy Spirit for teaching me a precious lesson on this rainy afternoon.
