Chapter 11 - The Pain

*phew* i've just recovered from an ordeal -- Gastric. it has never been this bad before, guess its becoming worst. in fact, this is only the 3rd time in my whole life that it happened. and yes, its very very painful.

i woke up at 8am just to find myself in pain. i thought it would wear of after awhile (like the previous 2 experiences) but no, it went on. so, being smart, i drank water, ate half a slice of bread, made milo.... and waited...

...the pain was still there!

seriously, it felt like ages in the span of 1 hour. i was sweating cold sweat on my palms and feet. occasionally i thought i'm gonna die. lol! anyway, i prayed and all i could hear was "you haven't been taking care of yourself so this is your consequences" so yea..

my mum finally noticed my agony and she brought medicine that tastes like melted-polo-sweet thingy and i'm supposed to drink 2 cups of that. the pain continued to last for another 30 minutes or so. then this thought came "maybe it isn't gastric.. might be better if i go to the doctor or worst -- the hospital". so, i got up and voila!i'm healed!

i find it very amazing though. just seconds before that i thought i'm dead but after i stood up, i was completely healed!

God works amazingly, don't you think? another evident sign that God loves us and He never forsake us. even at times when we deserve the pain, He is there watching over us, ready to catch us the moment we fall. He knows our limits and yet He still let us go through pains and problems in life. this is because He wants us to know that He is LIMITLESS and He wants us to find this power only in Him. afterall, we will only grow if life is uncomfortable, isn't it? this is what makes one stronger.

now, take some time off to thank God for all that He has done in your life. yes, without that problem/situation in your life, you will be in a position far worse than now.

be thankful for He is good and that He is always watching over YOU! :)
