Everything is Vanity

What would you do when everything falls down around you? when effort seemed vain, useless and futile?

It drives you crazy.

Especially, when you felt the ideas and schemes were great, and you were buzzing with excitement, yet everything seems to fall apart.

People leave.

Oppositions come.

Expectations delayed or disappoints.

Where would you turn to?

What action should one take?

Everything truly is vanity.

Solitude not a Multitude.

I wonder why sometimes when at the very moment you feel like hiding in the shadows God places you in the front lines to serve.

It's totally daunting.

Imagine those moments where you wanted to really dig deeper into the scripture, when you would rather sit down and meditate upon God's word in one tiny corner of the universe. There's this pang of hunger for solitude and reflection. yet God would rather bring you amidst a multitude.

It's kinda hard and somewhat unfair isn't it?

But that's where God is leading you. So there you must be, because obedience counts even if it doesn't make sense.
