It amazes me how quickly yet quietly God moves.

Amidst the distractions and moments of (okok I know I promised myself 2009 is going to be different and as soon as I said it, I had a relapse) self-doubt if I can really make this work, there was a split second when I ask thought "God, I need another match. The fire's dying out...." which was chased by "Heck, no point asking for a match when I don't have a spark to light it..."

That, my friends, is a horribly timed thought to have when you're barely starting out.

It took a 5min MTV program, a 2min msn chat and a basics of design, layout & typography book to kick my ass out of a zone that's not even comfortable to linger around in the first place (to make it worse, I don't even know what am I doing there).

That's when it dwelled on me that God just answered by poking me to get back on track and stop allowing myself to be distracted by fragments of the past comforts.

I don't need a match. I need self-discipline to keep the flame burning. Groan.

PS: Happy 26th Birthday my fren =) Thanks for reminding me about that one book that got me daring to step out in the first place. May God watch over your journey as you work towards your goals in 2009 =)
