It’s Sickening To Be Sick

I used to take pride that I rarely fall sick. In fact, I only fall sick once every 3-4 years. But just this month, I had been sick twice :(

Because of the various camps and some housing work, it has been a while since I last went for a run or any form of reasonable exercise. It is no wonder why I fall sick on Wednesday. I woke up on Wednesday morning having a really bad sore throat and slight headache. I manage to drag myself to work but my soul and spirit were still left at home.

Wan Leng then told me that he was also sick last week and there had been a flu epidemic going around. Pastor Marcus Rose, from Hope Berlin, who was here in Singapore for training for also down with a fever. James was also down with fever. Seemed like everyone was falling like flies.

I went to the Lee Clinic for a check up. The doc told me that I had not seen him for almost 3 years already. The doc checked if I had contracted dengue. Thank God that it was negative. I had caught the flu bug instead.

After a few camps, some preaching and housing work, my body just could not take it. Anyway, as I am penning this now, I can feel myself getting better. Though I am far from being 110%, I am on the way up the scale.

It really convicts me of the importance of exercising and taking care of my body if I were to do greater things for God in my life. The bigger the vision, the healthier I need to be.

Blessed are the energetic for they shall inherit the earth!
