Anchored to eternity

This week, God taught me a lesson being assured of eternity with the Lord... it all started on friday morning, when i was doing my quiet time, The prayer was, "O Father, what deep reassurance it gives me to know that whatever I am called upon to face today, my life is securely anchored to eternity. I have a hope that may be disturbed but cannot be destroyed."

You know when i read that prayer in my devotional book, i was actually afraid that i might be tested by God later in the day where we had an ippt re-test. Some background first to Friday was a couple days back on weds,was our first ippt, and for the first time ever since i entered ocs i actually dropped to a silver. And its because i miss the gold timing for my 2.4km run by just 7 seconds, where my timing drop to 9.51mins! And well my biggest fear really came.....as it RAIN in the midst of our ippt re-test! So in the end i didn't get back my gold before i book out... and i was really disappointed actually as i was so ready to get back that gold! In the end i recalled the prayer sentence at the start of the day in my QT...And so i realised that God taught me a lesson that day, that i sldnt pursue such worldly goals in life compared to what i have secured too for eternity! And that matters more! The HOPE i have in Christ that can NEVER be destroyed! =)
