THe 8 Blessings and giving thanks

wow~ I haven't blog for so long and what a strange time I choose to blog~ The morning of my morning midterm exam.

I don't remember my password but blogger remembered and was already signed in. o_o Well... I've actually really want to blog about this last Sunday, I was just so touch and inspired by the morning service. It's a total revelation.

As you know, I got backstabbed by this so-call-friend of mine. Long story short, I felt hurt and betray. I remember calling Ranny and I told him how confused I was. It was as if everyone in his world was evil and got plans to step on you to get ahead. I have my fair share of those incidents. I never took it personally, until that day I guess, I had enough. As a result, I turned down the crappy job they had to offer and I went my own way. Me and K (lets call her that for now) are on longer friends, which neither of us care.

So the topic for that SUnday morning was this, from Matthew 5:
³ “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
⁴ Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
⁵ Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
⁶ Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
⁷ Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
⁸ Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
⁹ Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
¹⁰ Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

¹¹ “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. ¹² Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

As I apply for jobs and move my way up to the chain, there are going to be lots and lots more people like K. To not think so is naive. To hide and to pretend is naive. Still, it is important to choose what is to do what is right and just. Even if they take everything you ever worked so hard for, destroyed your reputation and stole your achievements, be pure in heart and trust in the Lord.

On a random note :P lol
~I thank God for everything He has given me~
