Perfect Trust

After around 7 months of a sabbatical, I have finally started worked. Incidentally, 7 is the number of Perfection, so the 7 month rest is deemed as perfect rest. I say a firm Amen to that because there is absolutely nothing I would change nor is there anything I regret doing in these 7 months.

Sure I could have gone on an adventurous holiday to Tibet or to Mongolia but my place was at home. There was this uncanny peace and calm about staying at home and tending to Sophie. There were days of cabin fever resulting from being cooped up all day but these feelings were fleeting. Overall, I was where I was supposed to be,  to describe it i would this phrase; "spiritual trust".

In fact, all negative feelings were fleeting to be honest. On my second day of work, my sister bought me lunch and she said, "you were pretty cool through the entire "ordeal", weren't you?" I gave her a resounding but caveated YES because of these minute fleeting feelings. The way I see it, it's character and spirit building. It was a major exercise not just for me but for the family to trust unconditionally in Jesus finished work.

It comforted me to know that my heavenly father will not let me perish. This is not a sweeping statement from the bible but a fact! Of course there're myriads who will argue about what I could have done instead of "vegetating". All true to a certain extent but of these folks may have never felt that overcoming feeling that you are doing the right thing down in your spirit, soul and body, so much so there was no argument. Perfect Trust because of Perfect Love.

1 John 4:18 (New King James Version)

¹⁸ There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

Its like how, I feel the season has changed and that it's time for me to return back to work and trust Him again to take care of everything, and I mean every single thing.
