The Soap


Bonjour everyone!! Hahaha it’s the first time I’m using a French word on this blog. It’s good to learn a new language. They are so mysterious and exciting :D:D!! anyway it has been a very long time since my last post. Finally I have found a little time right now to write this blog before I go today. So let’s start the analogy! Love analogy soo much <3 XD!!

A week ago, I went to a skin doctor, and they told me that my skin is quite sensitive that I need to change my body liquid soap with the original basic block soap. The next day in the morning, I was going to take shower yet amusingly I could not find my new powerful block of soap on my bathroom. I keep looking DOWN the floor, the bathtub, the closet, and washbasin, everywhere. I could not find it, even at the sneakiest corner of my bathroom! I felt so stressed as I have tried my best and look for it repeatedly (almost 10x!) and I need to go for working (I’m almost late!!). After feeling so depressed, I asked my maid for help. Then she just laughed and told me, “look UP, it’ just up there”. Yes, she was the one who put it there, as she could not find any place to put it BELOW. I was so amused and stunned. Simple story, yet it has a big impact upon me.



(LOOK UP guys!!! The moon is so beautiful up there!!! #randomthought ;p)



So what’s the moral of the story? If you search for an answer for any of your trouble, never only LOOK DOWN and search for it, LOOK UPWARD too. Or maybe the best way is to LOOK UP FIRST before look down and search for it. Somehow I remember a very beautiful verse that I always keep on my heart from the bible,

Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”

It is a simple verse, yet a very powerful one for me. Often in our life, we have many questions that we could not answer by ourselves. It is funny that many try with their best to search for the answers by themselves, LOOKING down at the “world” and search for the answers. But do you know that, our God has all the answer to all what we need? My horrible experience with the soap is simply retarded, yet it contains the most powerful thing I have ever imagined. Why don’t we try to LOOK UP first before looking down at the world? If we can find the “soap” from UP there, why we bother taking time to find the “Soap” from down the world which will indeed bring no result. So, try too LOOK UP, Jesus might just be the right answer for you. :D

Auf Wiedersehen,

Dieu Vous Benisse (D.V.B)
