Rest Your Mind

Don't overthink it,
There are a lot of things that can't be explained,
That our minds can't comprehend.

So don't overthink it,
By faith,
Let things take its course.

The unseen, unfamiliar is scary,
And it is human reflexes that we keep fighting,
Keeping us save,
Keeping us alive,
"It is too unpredictable,
Better keep to the safe, familiar path."

In life, I've learnt to guard and keep things in control.
I have done it so well.
But I guess it's time for me to learn to appreciate the art of letting go.

Some people

This thing between us,
It seems like it never exists,
But when I see you,
Everything comes back like a flood.
Drowns me,
Takes my breath out of my lungs.

You broke down the walls I've built,
But as time goes by,
I start building them back again,
Brick by brick,
And when you showed up,
It tumbles back to flat ground.

I often ask myself why,
Why you always make me feel safe,
Why my worries seems insignificant whenever you are here,
And I can't seem to know why.

He knows what I like,
He has me in his hands,
He says I am predictable.
But other than him, people says they don't get me.
Then how could he?

Some people,
We just can't forget how they make us feel.

Rich & Poverty

When I read the Bible,
I am always amazed at how the followers of Christ would just leave behind what they have and follow Jesus.
They left their families, their jobs.
Without any question, without any doubt,
When they know that He is the Messiah,
They followed Him.
They know they have nothing to lose,
They know that the things they have on earth is just temporary.

When I look at my life,
I see how I have been holding on to the world.
I have so much,
But I always wants it better, want more.

In Mark 10:21-22,
The rich young man have difficulties in leaving his riches behind.
In the end, instead of following Jesus, he walked away.

This got me thinking,
How much I am going to miss out,
When I hold on to worldly treasures instead of keeping my eyes in eternal.

How marvelous , how boundless is Your love.
