i have officially met crazy woman NUMBER TWOOO! man i never thought i'd meet another one worse than number one. haha but WELL.

today was a very eventful or, ironically speaking UN-eventful day. heh okay nobody is going to understand me but well i shall refrain from giving details just in case im incriminated and this becomes a court case but anw.

it was pretty traumatising being forgotten for a prolonged period of time and then having crazy woman number two make me mad by insulting my hair, my face, my shoes, my ability to make myself up and everything else. and the worst thing was that she did it in a oh-im-just-joking-im-so-cute-its-just-you tone. ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh almost fainted! plus the fact that she was about triple my size kind of just made the insults a little harder to bear! heh eeps.

BUT but but but, even so, it has taken me almost two hours to refocus back on the Lord and put things into perspective. i have to admit that i did my fair share of bitching about crazy woman in the immediate aftermath of our very horrendous episode with her, but i guess we're partly to blame too.

psalm19 keeps popping up in my head everytime something trying comes along:

"the law of the Lord is perfect,
converting the soul
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple.

the statutes of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes.

the fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever.
the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.

more to be desired are they than gold,
yea than much fine gold.
sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

moreover by them Your servant is warned,
and in keeping them there is great reward."

haha i memorised this passage a longggg time ago, and i thought i'd half-forgotten it but in recent days its been real fresh in my mind and great encouragement to my heart (: im still a hot-tempered and whiney princess but well with the words of wisdom from psalm19, maybe one day i'll be a sweet-tempered and not-so-whiney princess ;p

WELL i shall forget about the insults that were dished out to me in excessive quantity and remember that i am very precious and very beautiful in His sight (: haha yesssss You see my imperfections, still You say im a masterpiece. a marvelous reflection, the image of Yourself in me (:

and with the Lord as my strength i can take any insult from crazy woman! for it says in this month's memory passage, the beatitudes!

"blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

blessed are those who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.

blessed are those who thirst and hunger for righteousness,
for they shall be filled.

blessed are the merciful,
for they shall obtain mercy.

blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God.

blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called sons of God.

blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

-matthew5:3-10 (:

YESSSS persecuted for righteousness' sake!!! ahaha okay i shall stop reading the Bible out of context but anw, great encouragement to my heart- blessed are those. (:
