::sleep::

it's a cold and sunny weekend. you are not complaining because you rather the weather is sunny and cold than grey and mild. you need your dose of sunshine therapy.
 he has a meeting at church in the afternoon, so you drop him off and drive to delft city center, you have nothing specific in mind, just want to stroll along the old city, enjoy the fresh air and sunshine of course.
 needless to say its freezing cold whenever there is some windy, it does feel like below the freezing point.
you stop by a cafe, it's time to warm up your body with a cuppa and a slice of carrot cake. you read your online devotion. it's interesting that this is the second time God spoke about sleep. you first heard about sleep on the first service of the year by an Indonesia guest speaker. now you read about it again, the perspective is still the same, God is at work when we rest/sleep.  sleep is certainly a gift from God as written in psalm 127:2 "it is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest,eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep".

you certainly feel much better and rested after the holiday season. and rest restore your body, you are going through something supernatural as well at this moment which your internist cannot explain. you still believe in miracle and that's the fact. you know miracle can happen to those who love the Lord. the time will proof the goodness of the Lord. most importantly you know you are ready to go back and face london again.  as you continue in your deep thought, he called. so you pay and drive to church pick him up and go for a dinner with his friend and a 5 year old boy.
he has to babysit the boy for about half an hour while the boy's father is running some errands. you had a clay pot fish head, salted fish chicken tofu stew and a stir fried mix veg. they are all good and delicious (if not exceptionally) for a cold evening like this.

one of the ordinary weekend but a blessed and contented one ^^ simply because you have Jesus in your life.
