I love deep frying stuff most in-particular my arrowroots after boiling them. Some time back after deep frying (I use a sufuria; kitchen make over needed asp)I forgot to put off the gas and the oil boiled and boiled.I only realized what was happening when the sitting-room was filled with smoke. Lets just say I was lucky it was on a weekend when I am in the house not a weekday when I leave for work. God surely grants me favor.
Anyway I let the sufuria cool off then went into the hard task of scrubbing the stains that were stuck on the sufuria. Unfortunately not all the stains got out and I was forced to abandon the whole stain removal operation. Last weekend I renewed the need to quench the stain removal thirst and sure enough all the stains got out and my sufuria is sparkling shining once more. And this formed the lesson for today.
See friends in life we all begin tasks that we plan will end well and leave us satisfied and happy. However, mishaps that were unplanned for do happen and leave us bruised and hurting. The hurt comes in many ways and no matter how much we wish to rid ourselves of it its tends to be deeply entrenched. Continuous focus of the hurt and pain coupled with regrets only make us worse off. Allowing ourselves time to heal ensures the hurt is completely replaced and our original state is restored. See I could have continued to scrub the sufuria but I chose to remove what was possible to remove that time. With each day I scrubbed the sufuria a stain got off and finally its fully restored.
Friends doesn't matter the loss or hurt you are going through right now. Don't expect a 360 degrees turn to restoration. The restoration may be gradual but it does eventually come to those don't give up. Continuous scrubbing will bring restoration. Hold on my dear friends. God will bring that restoration; keep faith and never quit on yourself.
I wish us all a blessed day. God loves us all and is faithful even when we can't see it.
