Is This The Right Path?

Fourth day of work. I'm feeling like one year liao! I cried infront of my boss yesterday and today! The feeling is so so burden that i could hardly bare. I must keep myself in the WORD of GOD! Father please give my strenght and wisdom and joy! I need you!

THE RIGHT PATH
by Gail Rodgers
 
The word "blessing" in the Hebrew language means "to find the right path."
 
God clearly spells out that path for us. As we learn to walk in it we 
find it is the place where our hearts are at rest and our lives are 
transformed. It is often the opposite of what we expected yet walking there 
will change us and in turn change our relationships.
 
"You're blessed when you're at the end of your rope. With less of you 
there is more of God and His rule.
 
"You're blessed when you feel you've lost what is most dear to you. 
Only then can you be embraced by the One most dear to you.
 
"You're blessed when you're content with just who you are -- no more, 
no less. That's the moment you find yourselves proud owners of 
everything that can't be bought.
 
"You're blessed when you've worked up a good appetite for God. His food 
and drink in the best meal you'll ever eat.
 
"You're blessed when you care. At the moment of being ?care-full', you 
find yourselves cared for.
 
"You're blessed when you get your inside world -- your mind and heart 
-- put right. Then you can see God in the outside world.
 
"You're blessed when you can show people how to cooperate instead of 
compete or fight. That's when you discover who you really are, and your 
place in God's family.
 
"You're blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The 
persecution drives you even deeper into God's kingdom"
(The Beatitudes, from Matthew 5:3-10, The Message).
 
Prayer: Father in Heaven, help me today to desire the right path. Help 
me to lean on You for my strength, to embrace You through all my trials 
and loss, to enjoy who You created me to be, to be hungry to know You 
more, to care about others, to tend to my own heart and to be a 
peacemaker in my world. May I desire this as the right path for my life and may 
I know Your blessing. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
