Is it even possible for a person who has never written a diary before to record what God teaches him every single day? This is a challenge and an experiment for me. I hope what God teaches me would benefit you also.

A Non-Productive Day

Today is one of those days that I have planned to be productive but ended up being just the opposite. Woke up by the barking of my neighbor's dog 2 hours before my alarm rang, then followed by unexpected tech support for a client. Here and there – the day was gone.

I usually feel guilty about being non-productive. I always put "rest" in the back burner and not enjoy myself very well. Although I love to do what I do but being in the field for so long and working long hours years after years put a toad on my health and motivation.

In moment like this, I usually think about the verse, "Be still, and know that I am God" but today, a new verse I have discovered, "Only people who have faith will enter the place of rest. It is just as the Scriptures say, “God became angry and told the people, ‘You will never enter my place of rest!’ ” God said this, even though everything has been ready from the time of creation." (Hebrews 4:3) It is very important to have faith in our daily living. God actually will punish the ones without faith.

Rest is alright. Have faith in God that He will take care of me tomorrow just like He always does. Although I am behind today but God will lead me through this.
