Two weeks of high pace work, and all of a sudden, yesterday I crashed. Flu. Fever. Body aches.
Two days of sleep later... all better.
When will I learn? Messing with the rhythm God design since creation. I must confess, I wanted to be a bad boy. I knew I had vacation coming up next week. I knew I had many things to take care of before I leave for vacation: I had Habitat for Humanity details to handle, Kin Village Children Christmas Party to arrange, one more sermon to prepare through video recording... I even had several pastors and lay-leaders lined up to record for the video sermon... so I thought I could cheat on Monday and get a jump start on work... but God holds up the STOP sign. Flu.
Everything got put on hold. While in bed with a fever, I resolved to scratch the video sermon idea, canceled all the interviews with the other pastors and lay-leaders. Losing two day of planning and recording, no time to record the interviews and city stock footage I needed.
H4H and Kin Village planning was put on hold till today. But with a extremely productive day, I had everything completed. Praise the Lord.
God created the universe in 6 days, and rested on the 7th. That's the rhythm of life. You cannot cheat the Sabbath. You cannot bank rest. Funny, I just told a good pastor brother to take the Monday rest even after his vacation, and I in turn tried cheat Sabbath with a reasoning that my own vacation is coming up... silly me. Thank God for smacking me down with the flu.
