Its a drag to go from Ground zero to the 45th floor every morning.
The lift has to stops in almost every level just to load and unload people.
After last night prayer, i have made a conscious decision to be patient with things like this (actually only this) that has been irritating me ever since i started work at IP. Can you believe it! it will take me about 7mins to reach my office at 45th floor from level 1! I dont even wait so long for a train in the morning! ok.. so i asked God to help me remember i had prayed.
So this morning, usual. The lift stops at almost every level to pick up passengers.
I felt so irritated. Why must those irritating people press the lift? Why must i wait so long to get to my destination? (well, if you are in a clarity of mind, you can see that its no body's fault? the problem is ME - i dont own a private lift. hah) I began to feel frustrated. And you know, God always answers prayers. yea, i was reminded of the things i prayed. So i tell myself to cool down and ask God for help. The lift went further two levels down and stops AGAIN for dont know the how many times. i almost wanted to destory the 'closed' button. Suddenly God spoke to me, that i should see this lift as His lift of salvation. I should allow as many people to come in as possible. Because everyone needs to go to His final destination. I should not be selfish, just being busy with my own things, wanting to fulfil my own agenda and in the end neglected or ignored the most important thing that i am called to do - to get as many people saved as possible. I should make room in my heart for a greater passion for the lost.
Well, God always has His ways to teach and remind you isnt it? Even in situation like this.
This is amazing. what a wise God i serve!
