the pathetic lil’ wormie

I seem to be weak at heart. Very weak. Chanced upon a display TV playing UP and caught a glimpse of the old man in UP flipping through his wife’s scrapbook. Just that, just him discovering his wife’s section of “What I’m gonna do” with their wedding photos and other photos together, that alone, made me tear.

I feel that recently, I have such an easily saddened heart that I was worried of whether I have fell into the hands of depression. :X

Back home, I was forced to rummage through a tin and decide whether to keep it’s contents, I found 2 pieces of paper tore from a notebook. It was actually some words of encouragement from my sister when I was studying for one of my finals. I couldn’t remember which one it is but definitely not that recent. Reading through her note again, gave me a little strength.

She didn’t write much. She just copied some verses from the bible.

Isaiah 40: 28

“… He (God) will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”

Isaiah 40: 30

“Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;”

Isaiah 40: 31

“but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”

When I first saw the above verses, they didn’t have much impact on me. Though, I was still touched and surprised by my sister’s concern over me since it doesn’t come often. To see them again after some years, it passed on a new meaning and it came at such a right time that I feel like crying again. I have been reducing to tears so easily that I am no longer surprised by their sudden presence in my eyes anymore.

I suppose that’s why people have religions. Regardless of what religion it is, they are a source of spiritual strength especially at your weakest moment and when you feel that you no longer can inch forward. When your heart is weary~~
