It was again my duty at the hospital. I felt too bad because I cannot watch the finals of the NBA between OKC v.s. Miami. The battle between the best basketball teams of NBA is so intense, hard, never-give up situation. I also missed to watch the fight of Manny Pacquiao v.s. Timothy Bradley which ended up in a controversial result. I was in the hospital duty during those days. But there is more of these battles that is not seen by the world.
Beyond of this, at the same time and date of the sports events that I mentioned, I am also on a battle. The battle of reviving our patient. Me and my fellow health care team is fighting out the life of the patient. Scenes of deteriorating vitals signs, no spontaneous breathing mixing out on those days. Together the families are also fighting out hard praying that their patient will overcome death experience. The whole world didn't know it.
I had my reflection - "What are other people are fighting for in their life?" I know someplace, sometime in the earth people are fighting for something and the world don't know it. Sometimes there are awesome fights that we think more too important than the fight of other people.
Maybe right now, some children are fighting for their hunger but some children are fighting their parents to have what they want - gadgets, money, toys.
Maybe right now, some people are fighting for their sins, struggles and addictions and there's no people to help and talk with them but some people wasting out for their pleasures in life - Eccentric.
Maybe, right now, some people are fighting for what problem they have today...and it seems no hope for it.
Maybe, right now, there is someone you know that you are concerned about because he/she is in trouble, his life is a mess, and you are praying and dealing with him/her.
Maybe, right now, there are people who are struggling for their homes are strucked by calamity, a crime, loss of loveone...
I know you are FIGHTING for someone or something right now, that I don't know, the world didn't know.
When I say fighting, I am talking about dealing with it everyday, tearing out tears, sweat and blood for it. Any minute, your mind is going on cycling with it. Wrestling with something or someone for a cause for a better. The FIGHT OF YOUR LIFE more intense than a real war, blasting tanks, aircrafts, etc. THIS IS MUCH DEEPER! MUCH CONCERNED! And sometimes you want it, but you can't get out of it or you can't just grasp it. Too impossible... How much you struggle, sweat, work hard to change the situation, the cycle keeps going on and on and on. Until you are tired, depressed, and quit but when you see that something or someone you keep on trailing...
You know, I want to encourage you, especially those who are Christians and having faith there's someone who are with you always......... who knows better.. who know you more than the world... who knows your limitations... and that is Jesus.
Brothers and sisters, Surrender that FIGHT. Pass on the baton upon Jesus. And He would fight for you. Believe! Have Faith! Hold on!
"The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still." Exodus 14:14
“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you" - Hebrew 13:5
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
"Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save,
nor his ear too dull to hear." - Isaiah 59:1
"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts". - Isaiah 55:9
I did not said that, The Lord did. The Lord that is bigger than any circumstances. Your human strength cannot do it alone. You need a savior Jesus Christ for your fight. Without a second thought, He went down to this earth to save us and gave His life for you to fight for you.
I have also fighting something in my life. But the attitude is this:
"If your tired on that, don't just pass that thing to you like being carefree - [whatever happens, happens]. NO, it's saying unto self that - "I can do all of these because Jesus is the one that will fight for me! I know God had given me this small problem because He knows that I could handle it with Him"
Now that's what you say my brothers and sisters....
Someday, God will impart to you the knowledge of your struggles. See what God sees, not what the human eyes see. Just have faith and surrender your life to Him. BELIEVE.
I am Tired and Crushed but not ABANDONED.
[addups]: Can you have my burden too, my fight for praying the mankind, It's getting bad these days. Almost the news we are watching are too much to handle. Let's pray and have concern and love to our fellow mankind. I know God has a purpose in all of these.
This is a video response of Francis Chan about persecution especially in India. These are the things that we are not seeing. So, heartbreaking and too much too handle (when you search to youtube about "ORISSA CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION).... Let's pray! These are the things we must be concerned about. Hallelujah, your name be glorified. And I know what you are doing Lord. You are just showing how we are not of this world we are for you Oh God. Lord as I pray for all the missionaries and Christians all over the world FIGHTING for their faith and STRUGGLING give them the PEACE, UNDERSTANDING, STRENGTH, COMFORT and BLESSING that is SURPASSING THE HUMAN UNDERSTANDING of their own. Let them SEE THROUGH YOUR EYES not in the human eyes that only see the weakness and downfall of everything. Lord, PROTECTION and ANOINTING is what I speak upon them. WIPE the TEARS from their eyes. These we ask, in the name of JESUS. AMEN.
