recently while in town,i had a wardrobe malfunction.my jeans' zip unzipped and left my fly open.knowing that i had no much choice before people noticed and made me get embarrassed i decided to look for a tailor and lucky for me i got one just in time.in my mind,i knew to make a zip would not cost me much and without talking to the tailor prior before handing him the jeans i gave him knowing it could not be more than a hundred shillings.when the tailor was done and handed me back the trouser i asked him how much i owed him and without blinking he simply said two hundred shillings.now in the first place when i left the house in the morning i had not budgeted for such an emergency as jeans and again in my thoughts i was so mad at this guy for robbing me in broad daylight.with no much to do because i was already so pissed to even bargain i got into my purse and gave him the money said a simple thank you and walked out.i was really bothered that i had actually spent more than i had thought of on money that i had not bargained for.in all these when i got home and began reflecting on it,i thought if i actually had more than enough and he actually asked for the 200 shillings i would have actually given him with no hard feelings but because i did not have enough to push me through the week and i had to part with that it made me mad.
how many times in our lives do we have people who just come and take all of our joys and just leave us with sorrow.people who know that the best person to dump their crap on is you.this are people who use you in every way as a dustbin and by the time they are done with you,they leave you rotting with their crap you are full of anger full of sorrow and you do not even know who y
when i thought of all this i asked Lord to help me so that my cup never runs dry that even if garbage is thrown at me am at my worst and people are fighting to take it all he may always sufficiently give me His grace that I may never run dry that i may always be filled with laughter and joy.i may give wholeheartedly knowing very well that when i give my cup is refilled in many amazing ways.that i will not be the one having tocarry all the garbage that i receive for I shall hand it over to Him for He has said i should give Him my burdens and his yoke is light.
so am not afraid when used as a means with other people.they will never leave me empty and dry as soon as the damage is done God,My Father restores me,re-moulds me and makes me new all over again.
