It’s way past midnight and my husband is sitting in front of his laptop listening to Fields Of Gold. It’s calming. I’ve had a tough day, a stressful one. Encountered some nasty people. To be honest, I frequently ask myself, how long more do I have to endure politics? I despise politicking. I believe in grace. I hate corruption. I love mercy. I am often confused as to how I should feel managing people, managing difficult people.
I pray more young people, more clean people would rise to the call to serve the nation. I want to make changes. Making changes in very trying circumstances can exhaust you. I want to finish my race and complete the task God has given to me – to serve the people of Subang Jaya, to prove to our nation that not all politicians are corrupt and to bear witness that righteousness can indeed exalt a nation.
May I look back to this posting someday and say with all conviction : I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
This particular scripture reminds me of Haris Ibrahim’s recent posting. Thinking of you Haris, as you mourn the passing of your beloved mom. Our condolences to you and your family.
