I just had a steamy hot cup of Nescafé while watching the season finale of Lipstick Jungle — Offering up 2 of my favourite things: Failed

• Two weeks ago, I had a heavenly Curry Wantan Noodle Soup with Steamed Chicken — Abstinence from Meat: Failed

• Two days ago, I watched 4 episodes of Boys Before Flowers, catching up to KBS2 realtime airing — Offering up an Addiction: Failed

• And earlier… I gigited the husband — An act of “passion”: Failed (- ___-||||)

There you have it — I have willingly BROKEN all of my Lent observations! *ashamed*

As I tried to find excuses for my lack of discipline, St Paul’s words came to mind.

¹⁵ For the high priest we have is not incapable of feeling our weaknesses with us, but has been put to the test in exactly the same way as ourselves, apart from sin.

Hebrew 4:15

Does it seems like I am making a drama over some petty creature comforts?

This is my confession. I hope I don’t appear to be manipulating Scripture to console myself, but reminding that it is by failing these simple act of faith that we would also fail the bigger challenges.

Therefore by saying this, I am pressing the Restart button.

Although some things broken cannot be mended, but I believe that if we mean it enough, His arms are forever outstretched from |– — – — – — this end to this end — – — – — –|
