Apathetic and Oblivious

Dear God,
Thank you for today. Thank you for helping me finish my 15 page essay, first 5000-word essay in my life...thank you...thank you for helping me survive despite the heavy workload...thank you..really feeling v good about myself...though i'm still left with a 2000-word essay by tomorrow...i am still v thankful.
Today i lost charlotte's thumbdrive...was feeling quite bad about it but i guessed u have given enough and prepared for all things...she has already printed out all her assignments..i guess even in the worst cirumstances, my Father, u showed me that u provide...You are Jehovah Jireh, my Provider...
Today on the mrt i saw a foreign worker, shunned by people becoz he looked dirty. He was so tired and drained...my heart went out to him...suddenly i realised how culturally insensitive some of us sXXXreans have became...so unaware of the plight of the poor and so demeaning....i remembered the stares that many gave, the discomfort that the foreign worker must have felt...
All he wanted was to earn a living in SXXX enough to support his family back at home but he has to endure being a second class citizen, a degraded human being....i really wonder wat is happening in here....such a rich country with such apathetic people who are oblivious to the suffering of others, so ready to judge, so socialised into a world with only economic gains... I fall prey to this from time to time too...
Father, this world have no room for your love...we are so preoccupied with our wants and in our pursuits....i ask of u to open our eyes...open the eyes of our hearts, that we may learn to care for those around us....wat great wealth and arrogance, eyes blinded by personal gains...help us to learn to invest in non tangible gains...in spiritual realms, in things of eternal value, empty our hearts that we may have room for your love...empower us with your holy Spirit that our blessings may overflow...
If christians are to be a testimony for u...i ask of u to transform our lives that we may truly noe the meaning of loving, honoring and respecting others when we try to bring them to church...beyond words...may u bless your children's mouth, may u soften our hearts, may u open our eyes and ears that we may see beyond our lives to those around us...to be aware of social phenomenon and the culture of our society that our Bible may truly be lived out wherever u place us...
Thank you Father.
Please be patient with us and con't to work your beautiful plan of sanctification in our lives and con't to bring about your redemption in this world...
In Jesus' name, Amen.
