Dearest One,

I am tired of waking up, doing the same routine every day. The same time to follow, the same road to take, the same faces I see. Day and night seemed just the same. I tried to change things for myself. Change my status, change my life.

But the only thing that changed is the year. Same-day for a different month, but the year goes on.

It keeps moving forward, not waiting for anyone at all. I tried to move at a fast pace. I tried to spend my day without fail. Trying to become successful. Trying to rely on my own strength.

I am tired. And spent. And I wanted to rest. I wanted to lie down, emotionally and physically. I'm getting deaf from the noise of the world around me. I can't hear anything other than the voices in my head.

"Keep going! No time to waste! Keep moving!"

I became a slave of time.

Until when? When will I be free from around in circles?

And then you told me to stop running. Stop running ahead. Stop chasing after Time. You held me down. You taught me to walk my own pace. Not rushing things that would eventually come in my way. Every person has their own time, their own achievement, their own success. You made me live in a place where I am happy and alive.

That as I live, as I slow down, as I walk I own pace, I will remember that God mold my character so I will be able to reach His dream for me with a mature attitude in the end.

"Let go, and Let GOD rule over your time."

~O~O~O~

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Jeremiah 29:11
