Yesterday's topic during cell was on the story of Moses. Actually, I had always felt that the story of Moses was like that of Joseph. Like Joseph, Moses had to go through quite a lot before God revealed to him what His plan for him was. Perhaps at times, God wants to use our brokenness to show His glory as we learnt to depend more and more on Him.

Actually, I had written the above last Sat but I didn't post it yet as it was incomplete. In fact, I had forgotten what I had written then until I saw it again today. Now, looking back at the week that had passed, I could how applicable the above paragraph was.

Though I had not gone through what Moses and Joseph had gone through, I could relate to how they had felt during that time of trials. But what I'm feeling how is nothing compared to them either.

Sometimes I do not understand why is it that some people would intentionally want to hurt others. Especially if she is a fellow sister in Christ as well. Yet for every person who tried to hurt me, God has placed others in my life who have been such a blessing and encouragement to me. And I thank God for them.

After all, there'll always be ups and downs in our lives

"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

James 1: 2-4
